WIN—-OREGON +6.5: Oregon faced a Utah team that played one of the easier schedules amongst the Power 5 teams. They played 1 team during the regular season with 8 wins in the USC Trojans, and lost that game, to their 3rd string quarterback no less. Utah had not faced a team nearly as good as Oregon all season, and it showed.
WIN—-BAYLOR +8: This one did not look good after Baylor lost their starting quarterback, but freshman backup Jacob Zeno came in and completed 2 passes for an insane 159 yards and a touchdown to help keep this game close.
WIN—CINCI +10
WIN—BOISE STATE -13.5
WIN—-CLEMSON -28.5: I actually debated adding an Clemson alternate line of -39, because that’s how confident I was with this one. This one wasn’t even close.
LOSS—-OHIO STATE -16
LOSS—LSU OVER 55.5
LOSS—-CLEMSON UNDER 54: I thought Clemson would shut UVA out and win this one 50-0 pretty much, but I also underestimated Dabo Swinney’s motivation to prove to the College Football Playoff Committee that the Tigers are no fluke. They did not let up, and even going up against Clemson’s backups for a few drives, UVA had no shot.
