PICK: 6 point Teaser: Eagles to -1 / Packers to +7.5 (-120) BetUS 1 star
The Eagles appear to have rebounded after a 3 game losing streak, against teams that were playing very well at the time. Washington has given Philly some trouble the past 2 or 3 seasons but I have watched Mariota enough in his career to know that he likely cannot beat this Eagles pass defense unless Philly just self-destructs.
-WSH defense #27 in yards per rush allowed
-WSH defense #32 in yards per pass allowed
-WSH 1.4 giveaways per game #25 in the NFL
-PHI defense #1 in QB completion % allowed\
-Mariota 54.8% completions last 3 gams
-Hurts 11 TD / 1 INT last 3 seasons vs WSH
Green Bay is battling some injuries, but still, this Bears defense, despite all of the take-aways, is giving up yards against good teams. The Bears are a bit fraudulent when you look at their wins and who they were against or when they faced the team. 2 biggest wins for the Bears were against Baltimore and Philly, both at their lowest points in the season. I can’t see Chicago running away from the Packers here.
-Love 69.9% completions career vs CHI, 9 TD / 2 INT

🔥 What’s at Stake
The Bears (10–4) hold a half‑game lead in the NFC North.
The Packers (9–4–1) can leapfrog Chicago again—they beat them 28–21 just 13 days ago.
A Bears win gives them a 1.5‑game cushion with two weeks left.
Both teams remain in strong playoff contention, but the loser faces a tougher road.
🐻 Chicago Bears: Key Storylines
✅ Caleb Williams’ Growth
Chicago’s offense is top‑10 in scoring (26.1 PPG) and top‑5 in total yards—a massive leap from last season. Williams has been dynamic, but his late end‑zone interception sealed the loss in the last meeting. How he responds is the central question.
✅ Momentum
The Bears have won six of their last seven and were the NFC’s hottest team before the Week 14 loss at Lambeau.
✅ Home‑Field Edge
Cold, windy Soldier Field conditions are expected—classic Bears weather.
✅ Season Leaders
Green Bay Packers
Jordan Love: 3,304 passing yards
Josh Jacobs: 890 rushing yards, 13 TD
Romeo Doubs: 578 receiving yards
Edgerrin Cooper: 104 tackles
Micah Parsons: 13 sacks (IR)
Chicago Bears
Caleb Williams: 3,150 passing yards
D’Andre Swift: 935 rushing yards, 7 TD
Rome Odunze: 661 receiving yards, 6 TD
Tremaine Edmunds: 89 tackles
Montez Sweat: 9 sacks
📊 Prediction
It’s pretty sad that both of these teams are still fighting for the playoffs at 10 wins while the Bucs, Panthers and Eagles are sitting with only 7.
We know of the devastating injury that the Packers sustained last week with Micah Parsons, but it’s not like the Bears are not banged up either with their best wide receiver in Rome Odunze on the shelf.
The Packers rank 3rd in offensive EPA to the Bears ranking 9th. The Bears are the better rushing team while the Packers are the better passing team.
The Bears have the better defense ranking 13th in EPA to the Packers ranking 16th. The Packers ironically are better at defending the rush while the Bears are better at defending the pass.
For me, this is more about a “what have you done for me lately type game.” Since week eight, the Bears rank 7th in offensive EPA while the Packers still sit at third. On defense, this is where the Bears have improved. Since week 11, this team has gotten healthier on D, and they rank 9th in defensive EPA to the Packers ranking 20th.
My power ratings have the Packers as the slightly better team, but the spot I think really screams Bears.
This Chicago team were one play away in Green Bay from a touchdown to at least tie or maybe win that game.
The Bears actually beat the Packers in the box score that day. I think that with NFL referee Alex Kemp who is on a historic favorites run going 27-3 straight up (stats courtesy of @NFLRefStats1), the Bears will have more edges then just their motivation and play on the field. Take Da Bears.
Bears ML -115 – 2 stars

Chargers to +8 with the Lions to -1 – 2 stars – The Chargers are playing for something while the Cowboys are pretty much shot when it comes to making the playoffs. The Steelers can afford to lose this game while the Lions cannot.

Oklahoma Injuries:

Net Yards Per Play: Oklahoma +.22
Basic Stats:
Key Stats: Oklahoma’s offense is poor only ranking 94th in EPA to Alabama’s ranking 19th. Alabama’s pass offense is really their best method of success ranking 29th in pass EPA. The issue is that Oklahoma has the best defense in the SEC ranking 4th in defensive EPA. Both teams played a top 10 schedule.
Verdict: I think that Oklahoma’s offensive woes are based mainly on quarterback John Mateer’s injuries. Now that he should be fully healthy, I think that changes. Alabama has been leaking oil over the past four weeks or so, while Oklahoma has been heating up. The fact that they have home field advantage should do something for them. They also will have to have some success running the football as Alabama only ranks 54th in rush EPA. Oklahoma has the home field advantage and the better yards per play numbers. I am taking the sooners as Alabama will struggle here on the road.
Play: Oklahoma +1.5 – 2 stars

Net Yards Per Play: Miami +.29
Basic Stats:
Key Stats: Looking at the numbers, Miami seems to have all of the advanced stats their way. They ranks 12th n success rate to A&M ranking 30th, the Cane’s rank 9th in defensive EPA to the Aggies ranking 55th. Texas A&M is a terrible 134th in defensive explosiveness. This team allows big plays. The only X-factor here for the Aggies is if Miami can stop quarterback Marcel Reed.
Verdict: I think that Miami is live here. They have had 3 weeks to prepare for the dual threat quarterback while A&M has had the easiest SEC schedule. The only reason for this line is the SEC bias, and I think that Miami comes in and shows the world that they are very deserving of the college football playoffs. A&M does have the coaching advantage, which is something to consider, but that is the only reason why this isn’t a max play. I also like the under some.

Ole Miss Coaching Changes
Lane Kiffin left to take the LSU job and will not be with the team during the College Football Playoff. Defensive coordinator Pete Golding has taken over as the new head coach. Offensive coordinator Charlie Weis Jr. will also stay with the team.
Net Yards Per Play: Ole Miss +.79
Basic Stats:
Key Stats: Nothing more key than the fact that Tulane played in an inferior conference and has already played at Ole Miss and lost by double digits. Ole Miss should have plenty of success running and passing the football with Trinidad Chambliss. Ole Miss ranks 14th in offensive EPA to Tulane ranking 57th on defense. If there is a path, Tulane needs to run the ball, but the the Green Wave only ranks 75th in rush EPA to the Rebels ranking 112th in opponent rush EPA.
Verdict: How nice that the committee set this up for a coachless Ole Miss team and gave A&M Miami. This game could get ugly as we have seen it before. If Tulane is down, they will have some serious problems trying to play catchup as Ole Miss ranks 12th in opponent pass EPA. I will say that there is a lot of variance in this game being that Lane Kiffen left for LSU. As of right now, I have a strong lean to Ole Miss, but will wait.

Basic Stats:
Key Stats: Another huge discrepancy in strength of schedule with Oregon’s ranking 17th to James Madison’s ranking 105th. The Ducks have a blazing offense ranking 2nd in EPA to the Duke’s ranking 34th on offense. The Ducks have the biggest net yards per play out of any college football team.
Verdict: This could be a serious ass kicking as the Ducks are the much more talented and skilled team. I also have to imagine that the guys remember their playoff loss to Ohio State from 2024 and will be very motivated to win this game. I like both the full game number and the 1st half, but I will only pick one.

Verdict: I honestly do not see how either team stops each other on defense. Both teams struggle to stop anything while this game is being played at the Ford Center which is a fast track in Texas. No weather will mess this game up. I love the over here.

Verdict: I honestly think that the motivation lies with the Owls here. As equal teams, how can I not take the three points.

Verdict: This situation is just too weird for Memphis. They wanted to make the playoffs and blew it vs Tulane. They also lost their coach to Arkansas while the Interim won’t even be the guy for the next season. As long as everyone stays, this should be a statement game for the Wolfpack.

Washington State has had the harder and somewhat weirder schedule. Washington state ranks 3rd in defensive explosiveness which should counteract Utah State ranking 19th in explosiveness.

Key Stats: Nothing is more key than the potential opt outs, and the strength of schedule difference of Toledo ranking 130th and Louisville ranking 45th. Toledo has a great defense in the Mac, but I doubt they stop Jeff Brohm’s squad here if they all decide to play.
Verdict: All and all, this is another one where we could see a lot of movement. There is a small chance that Jeff Brohm leaves for another opportunity weather it is college or NFL. I will say that my number is only Louisville -6 if everything remains constant.
Play: Lean Toledo +6.5

Basic Stats:
Key Stats: Western Kentucky’s defense is the best unit on the field ranking 19th in success rate and 43rd in EPA. Neither team had too hard of a schedule.
Verdict: I think that this line assumes more opt outs for Southern Miss as their coach Charlie Huff puts together his team in Memphis. In saying that, if there isn’t, there will be value on the +5.5

Basic Stats:
Key Stats: UNLV’s defense is clearly the weak point of this team ranking 126th in yards per play. In saying that, this offense has shown enough to outscore almost every opponent not named Boise State. UNLV’s offense is the best unit on the field ranking 15th in EPA. The question is if they can stop Ohio.
Verdict: Ohio was a solid team who played well on offense in the MAC, yet when it came down to crunch time, this team blew games against Ball State and Western Michigan. The whole coach on leave doesn’t breed much confidence to me. My number is UNLV -4, so I lean Ohio at this time. Gonna wait this out some too see what happens with more potential opt outs.
Play: Lean Ohio +6.5

Sheraton Hawai’i Bowl – California vs. Hawaii +1.5 O/U 54.5 Location: Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex (Honolulu) Time: 8 p.m. TV Network: ESPN

Home: Hawaii’s home stadium, give them 3 full points.

Other Notes: This will be a home game for Hawaii.
Net Yards Per Play: Hawaii +.44
Basic Stats:
Key Stats: Well Cal played a much harder schedule ranking 60th on Sagarin to Hawaii’s ranking 112th. The funny thing about these two teams is that they are mirror images of each other. Both quarterbacks are from Hawaii, both teams pass the ball at a very high frequency ranking 8th for Cal and 5th for Hawaii in all of college football, and both teams absolutely suck at running the football.
Verdict: I really thought that I was going to take the over year, but both teams are solid at defending the pass. Both teams are also quite average in Tempo and I expect a little bit of defense this game as both teams are mid-range in defensive success rate. At this number, I have to lean Cal. This team showed some spirit without coach Wilcox in knocking SMU out of the ACC championship game. JKS is also going to have a lot of fans here cheering them on.

The Patriots out-gained the Bills 385 to 349 yet lost 35-31. A 1-0 turnover ratio and poor red zone defense crushed Dave Portnoy and his way too early rants.
