Beef Bowl Bet

    Word out of New York is that Giants' punter Matt Dodge was so upset over Sunday's loss he attempted to hang himself, fortunately he wasn't able to kick the chair out from underneath...

Beef 'O' Brady Bowl: Louisville -2.5/57.5. As for this game we see a conundrum. Neither play in a quality conference and both, like a boil on Megan Fox's butt, are happy to be here so no real advantage there. We'd like to back the team with a quality, veteran QB and solid defense, but these squads split that difference. USM has the QB in Austin Davis and Louisville has the D under Chalie Strong. If Cardinals QB Adam Froman was starting we'd solidly support Louisville, but instead they'll be forced to use Justin Blake and Will Stein as Froman sits with a thigh bruise. Blake seemed to come on late and finished with an 8-3 TD to Int. ratio in  late season starts. Louisville dropped Rutgers in their finale to become bowl eligible and should be on an up note. Still we'll hedge our bets in case Davis has a big game and say...
PLAY: Louisville and Over
