Las Vegas - On the NFL board, we're looking at the early game between the Vikings and the Colts. And gonna use Minny -3.5 points. Not gonna shoot any poison arrows at interim coach Jeff Saturday, but WHY is he still sending Matt Ryan out as the QB? Matty Ice is leading the NFL in INTs with 13 and fumbles with 14. Indy's defense WILL give up points. Minny QB Kirk Cousins is 7th in the league in passing yards (3,358), WR Justin Jefferson LEADS the league in receiving yards (1,500) and RB Dalvin Cook is 6th in rushing yards (950). Color me PURPLE for the money.

Gonna mix in some college football bowl action and grab Fresno State over Washington State in the Jimmy Kimmel LA Bowl. Yea, Jimmy Kimmel has his own bowl. We are checking in with the folks in Albuquerque at the New Mexico Bowl to see if we can rename the game and call it the BENJAMIN ECKSTEIN ECKS & BACON WINNERS ONLY NEW MEXICO BOWL! You with me? Okay, back to bizness. This game opened with the Cougars as a -2 point favorite and the line has moved to Fresno -4 points. A SIX POINT MOVE! So, the first order of business is, FOLLOW THE MONEY! Then we have to tell you the Bulldogs come in from California riding an EIGHT game winning streak. Of course, they live in the Mountain West and the competition ain't top shelf. However, the Cougars last three wins were against Arizona (5-7), Arizona State (3-9) and Stanford (3-9). Now we direct your attention to Fresno senior QB Jake Haener. He missed a few games in the middle of the season, but his overall numbers are as good as anyone. Jake is hitting on 72.6% of his passes and has gobbled up 2,616 yards. And how about 18 TDs to only 3 INTs! We bought the Bulldogs as an underdog, and are still on the train, but at -4, we would advise a light play.
