I'm betting on Old Dominion who comes into this bowl game with less time of travel and can steadily run the ball to dictate the pace of the game, limiting time of possession from the pass heavy Hilltopers. WKU have also only covered once as an underdog this season, while we've seen Old Dominion this season cover 19 points vs James Madison on the road and beat App State. This is a stylistic battle that favors Old Dominion, who have 2 500 yard rushers while WKU have a better WR core but will be without their 31 TD/11 INT QB Austin Reed. Without their QB, you have to be concerned with WKUs preparation and motivation to win this game. Old Dominions coach has been to and lost a bowl game 2 years ago, with a prime opportunity to get Old Dominions 2nd bowl victory of the program (WKU usually fight for conference titles, not bowl game victories).

Official Play: Old Dominion -4.5
