Florida vs. Oregon State: No Anthony Richardson for the Gators at quarterback, paving the way for Jack Miller to step in at quarterback, aided by Florida's expert rushing attack going against a solid Beavers front seven that, in tandem with a balanced offense that can take control of games, helped the team to a 9 win season.

Going bowling: College football bowl game schedule for 2022

Washington State vs. Fresno State: Jake Haener hasn't thrown an interception and has scored 11 times in the last five games for Fresno, which has won 8 straight overall and should test the Cougars' back seven. But Wazzu can do the same with Cameron Ward dealing from behind center behind a solid attack that plays well in the red zone and does its best when balancing things out.

Place your bets: College football bowl picks against the spread

SMU vs. BYU: BYU was supposed to make some noise as an independent, but a four-game losing skid midseason put an end to those hopes. Jaren Hall leads a BYU attack that posts 440 yards and nearly 32 points per game, and passed for 31 touchdowns against just 6 picks on the year. SMU is good for 325 air yards per game while scoring almost 39 points each time out, but is relatively weak stopping the run, allowing over 203 yards per outing.


Frisco Bowl
North Texas vs. Boise State

Point spread: Boise State -10.5
FPI prediction: Boise State 66.3%

Odds: College football bowl game odds, game lines

North Texas vs. Boise State: The Mean Green can move the ball pretty well, going over 200 yards rushing and 262 passing per game, but the defense is also allowing north of 460 yards each time out. Boise owns the edge on both sides of the ball, surrendering under 170 yards in both phases and allowing 19.5 points per game. North Texas is traditionally a poor bowl team, going 2-10 all-time.
