The first ever Frisco Football Classic will have the Miami-Ohio RedHawks squaring off against the North Texas Mean Green today in Frisco, Texas. The Mean Green are clicking at the right time and carry a 5-game winning streak going into today’s contest. They have a defense that has held their opponents to an average of just 17 points over the last 5 games and have a punishing running attack that is averaging 246.0 yards per game. The RedHawks get it done through the air and if the Mean Green can slow down their high powered passing attack, which they can do, they get this one. North Texas is 6-0 ATS in their last 6 and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 as an underdog. Miami (OH) is currently a 2½ point favorite but are just 2-5 ATS in their last 7 when they are giving. When you take them out of the MAC, the RedHawks are a dismal 4-13 ATS in their last 17. From Denton Texas to Frisco is a stone’s throw, so in essence this is a home game for North Texas and there will be a lot of Mean Green fans for support.
TODAY’S PICK: NORTH TEXAS MEAN GREEN +2½

The Frisco Bowl in Frisco, Texas, will have the 11-2 San Diego State Aztecs pitted against the 12-1 Texas-San Antonio Roadrunners. The line in this game opened with San Antonio laying 2 but has flipped and San Diego State is now favored by 2½. The reason for this flip is the Roadrunners phenom of a running back, Sincere McCormick, has elected to enter the NFL draft and will not play. This is a big sting to the Roadrunners offense. McCormick set numerous school records, was named Conference USA Offensive Player of the Year, and rushed for 1,479 yards. Without McCormick, the Aztecs stingy defense will be able to slow down UTSA’s high-powered offense and San Diego will be able to move the ball against a mediocre, at best, Roadrunners D.
TONIGHT’S PICK: SAN DIEGO AZTECS M/L 

The Buffalo Bulls will look to snap their 3-game losing streak tonight when they visit the Ball State Cardinals. Both of these teams are not the elite of the Mac, but Buffalo looked impressive last week when they went toe-to-toe against one of the best teams in the conference, the Northern Illinois Huskies. The Cardinals have been on the skids as well, losing two straight and have a weak run defense, and that will be a problem. The Bulls can run the ball, averaging 199.1 yards per game, and can score, averaging 31.6 points per game. Buffalo is currently getting 6½ in this one and the dog is 6-0 ATS in the last 6 meetings.
TONIGHT’S PICK: BUFFALO BULLS +6½

The 7-3 Kansas State Wildcats’ 4-game winning streak will be on the line today when they host the 8-2 Baylor Bears. Not only have the Bears won the last three meetings with K State, they will be pumped after knocking off Oklahoma last week, 27-14, a team the Wildcats lost to on October 2nd. Baylor is averaging 453.9 yards per game on offense and has one of the best running attacks in the nation, averaging 237.8 yards per game. The Bears are 7-2-1 ATS in their last 10 games as a road dog and the Wildcats are 2-5-1 ATS in their last 8 games against teams with a winning record.
TODAY’S PICK: BAYLOR BEARS +2

The 6-3-0 Northern Illinois Huskies will be a home dog tonight when they host the 5-4-0 Ball State Cardinals. Consider the Huskies +2.5 in this one. They are 3-1-0 at home, 5-3-1 ATS on the season, and after an ATS loss they are 9-2-0 ATS in their last 11. On the flip side, the Cardinals are 3-6-0 ATS on the season, 3-9-0 ATS in their last 12 as a favorite, and just 1-8-0 ATS in their last 9 meetings with the Huskies.
TONIGHT’S PICK: NORTHERN ILLINOIS HUSKIES +2.5

The Alabama Crimson Tide know how to win Championships and I expect them to notch another one tonight over the Ohio State Buckeyes. The Tide not only have the best receiver on the planet, Heisman Trophy winner DeVonta Smith, they also have a quarterback named Mac Jones who has thrown for 4,036 yards. If Bama can contain the Buckeyes formidable running game, they win easily.
TONIGHT’S PICK: ALABAMA CRIMSON TIDE -8

The Ohio State Buckeyes could be short some key players due to the coronavirus, when they face the Clemson Tigers tonight in the Sugar Bowl, and that’s not good when you have to face the best player in college football, quarterback Trevor Lawrence. Lawrence was spectacular as always in his last outing against Notre Dame, passing for 322 yards with 2 touchdowns and 90 yards rushing. The Tigers have won the last four meetings against the Buckeyes and have been a covering machine in bowl games, going 10-2 ATS in their last 12.
TONIGHT’S PICK: CLEMSON TIGERS -7
