Drew Allar's draft stock continues to rise That’s it – no more unders for me. I either take overs or pass. Speaking of which I will take an over on
Penn State vs Boise State over 54.0 – The Penn State offense has picked up steam as the season has progressed causing QB Drew Allar’s draft stock to rise. The Nits put up 38 points or more in three straight games and four of the last five.
The Boise State defense has been pretty stout against the run throughout the regular season, but it hasn't faced a team like Penn State. When it faced Oregon earlier in the year, it gave up 37 points.
On the other side, Penn State’s defense has been pretty stout against the run too but it has not played against a RB like Ashton Jeanty. He racked up 2,497 yards with 29 touchdowns on 7.3 yards per carry. Expect some explosive plays.

Singleton and Allen can keep pace with Jeanty In the same game I’ll take:
Penn State -11.0 vs Boise State – While Boise State may have Jeanty, the Nits have one of the best RB combos in the nation with in Nicholas Singleton and Kaytron Allen. If the last two games were any indication — 293 rushing yards against top-ranked Oregon in the Big Ten Championship and 189 in a blowout over SMU — the Nittany Lions should have their way against te 78th ranked Boise State rush defense.
The discrepancy is even bigger when it comes to the passing game. Penn State sits third nationally in Passing Success Rate, while Boise State ranks 58th.
Penn State has proven it can contend on the big stage, suffering one-possession losses to Ohio State and Oregon. Now, it's all about getting over the hump.
Alabama -16.5 vs scUM*- this is a double revenge spot for Alabama. Not only did scUM* defeat the Tide in the CFP semifinal, it then knocked out their current head coach Kalen DeBoer and his Washington team in the National Championship game.
Expect Alabama to run up the score in this matchup.
Few of Alabama's top players have opted out. The same can not be saif of scUM*. An offense that was pretty bad to begin with (100th in points per game and 117th in yards per play) will be without its two top rushing and receiving options.
Despite some slow starts this season, the Crimson Tide offense was still one of the most explosive in the country. They finished seventh in points per play and 17th in yards per play. They will face a defense that will have significant opt outs in the DL and secondary.
The revenge will be sweet.
