Las Vegas - Starting the day in Atlanta and will roll with Oklahoma +14 points over LSU. First lemme say that I was crying along with Joe Burrow when he won the Heisman Trophy and talked about his home in Ohio. Here's a taste. “Coming from southeast Ohio, it’s a very impoverished area.

Then buy Oklahoma State, and push the Cowboys up from +6 to +16 points against Texas A&M. Actually, the line dropped this morning, and A&M is now -5 or -4.5 depending on where you shop. Still on OSU.

Absolutely horrified by the way the Hurricanes finished the season, losing to Florida International (30-24) and Duke (27-17). YIKES! The 'Canes covered 6 of their 12 games, 3 of 9 as a favorite, and posted 6 Overs, 5 Unders and 1 push. The Bulldogs finished with a 9-3 record and covered 7 of the 12 games.
