The #21 Oklahoma State Cowboys take on the Miami Hurricanes at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida. Oklahoma State will not have former 2,000-yard rusher Chuba Hubbard in this game as he opted out of the season to prepare for the NFL Draft.
The Cowboys rushing attack led by Dezmon Jackson and Dominic Richardson will still give the Hurricanes' defense major problems. The Cowboys running game has averaged 242 rushing yards over their last three games and Miami has struggled against the run this season.
In the Hurricanes' last game, they gave up 554 rushing yards to the North Carolina Tar Heels en route to a 62-26 loss. The Cowboys rushing attack vs. Miami defense will determine who will win this game and online sportsbooks have this game being close as both teams' moneyline odds are nearing a pick’em.
If betting ATS here keep in mind that Oklahoma State is 1-4 ATS in their last five games. Miami hasn’t been much better ATS with a 2-3 mark in that same timeframe.

The Alamo Bowl features a Pac-12 vs. Big 12 matchup as the Colorado Buffaloes take on the Texas Longhorns.
The Longhorns are 7.5-point favorites and their versatile offense led by NFL prospect Sam Ehlinger will present some problems for the Colorado defense. The Longhorns defense will have to limit Buffaloes running back Jarek Broussard and they have shown the ability to do so this season.
The Longhorns -330 moneyline odds can be taken to add another leg to a parlay but if betting on this game in isolation take the Longhorns to cover the 7.5-point spread.
The Longhorns offense is averaging 41 points per game while the Buffaloes come into this game putting up 29.6 points per contest which are the perfect ingredients for a shootout. Expect this game to feature quite a bit of scoring as the 64 point total should go over with the Longhorns doing most of the heavy lifting.
