If Vegas is right, 2018’s bowl season will look like this

College Football Playoff
  • Cotton semifinal (Arlington, Texas): No. 2 Clemson (11) vs. No. 3 Ohio State (10.5)
  • Orange semifinal (Miami): No. 1 Alabama (11) vs. No. 4 Washington (10.5)
Two recent Playoff rematches! These aren’t my own bowl predictions, buuuut ... my CFP is probably gonna look a lot like this one.

The only real prize for ranking No. 1 is “hosting” a geographically friendly semifinal. These are about the same for Bama. Flip them around if you like.

The rest of the New Year’s Six
  • Sugar (New Orleans): Oklahoma (10) vs. Georgia (10.5)
  • Rose (Pasadena, California): Wisconsin (10) vs. USC (8.5)
  • Peach (Atlanta): Miami (9.5) vs. Auburn (9.5)
  • Fiesta (Glendale, Arizona): Boise State (10) vs. Penn State (9.5)

The fact that LSU is sharing a line with Virginia Tech to win the title is a sad reminder of how low the program has fallen in such a short span of time.

12 - 1 odds isn't bad. It's just that Bama and Auburn are loaded this year not to mention both of 'em have solid QB's.

San Diego State vs. Washington State is a good Las Vegas Bowl prediction.

It just seems to be every season with them, doesn’t it? Crazy.

Yep. Jim Harbaugh with zero conference championship at FBS in 7 years and hasn’t finished above 3rd in division at Michigan is gonna make playoffs.

Even a blind hog can find an acorn every now and then.

Vegas only puts Michigan that high because idiots think it will happen. The line isn’t necessarily a prediction but what will make them money.
