THURSDAY, JAN. 1
No. 5 Oregon vs. No. 4 Texas Tech
Orange Bowl
Spread: Oregon -2.5
Moneyline: Oregon -135, Texas Tech +114
O/U: 50.5
What to know: Oregon did what many thought it would do in the first round, and that’s rout James Madison. The Ducks led 34-3 before cruising to a 51-24 victory, setting up a date with Texas Tech on New Year’s Day. Oregon still has a single loss to its name this season, a 30-20 defeat at the hands of No. 1 Indiana on Oct. 11. The Red Raiders also have only one loss on the year, falling at Arizona State back on Oct. 18.
No. 9 Alabama vs. No. 1 Indiana
Rose Bowl
Spread: Indiana -7.5
Moneyline: Indiana -258, Alabama +210
O/U: 48.5
What to know: Would you believe that the Hoosiers are a 7-point favorite over mighty Alabama? It’s a new era in college football. The Tide went to Oklahoma and knocked off the Sooners in the first round of the CFP, and now they get a date with undefeated Indiana, the top team in the country. Indiana will trot out Heisman winner Fernando Mendoza at quarterback, and the Hoosiers have scored 55 points or more six times this season.
No. 6 Ole Miss vs. No. 3 Georgia
Sugar Bowl
Spread: Georgia -6.5
Moneyline: Georgia -250, Ole Miss +205
O/U: 55.5
What to know: Ole Miss dominated Tulane in the first round of the Playoff, jumping out to a 41-3 lead before winning 41-10. Now, the Rebels get another shot at the Bulldogs, who they lost to back on Oct. 18 in Georgia, 43-35. It won’t be a cakewalk for the Bulldogs, who trailed 35-26 in the third quarter of that game before scoring the final 17 points to eke out an 8-point win.
