Bowl Underdog Game of the Year
(NCAAF) Trojans (USC) vs. Aggies (TXAM),
Point Spread: 4.50 | -120.00 Trojans (USC) (Away)
Result: Win
T.M. Selection: USC TROJANS - ATS

1) I like the Trojans to get the solid underdog cover in this game against the Aggies on Friday, December 27th. The line looks like a trap line to take Texas A & M laying only 4.5 or 4 points even though they are facing a team that has a had a lot of opt-outs heading into this post-season battle. As for the trap, I am not falling for it!

2) The Aggies defense got ripped down the stretch including allowing over 470 ypg in their last 3 games against SEC teams. The Texas A & M defense also dealing with some key opt-outs and the Trojans offense surely will take advantage.

3) The USC offense, even dealing with opt-outs, is still a strong machine. They put up over 550 yards of offense when they faced Notre Dame and that says a lot for sure! Southern Cal outgained ND by over 100 yards in that 49-35 loss. This Trojans team better than their 6-6 records shows while the Aggies, though 8-4, got waxed by double digits 3 times this season including when they got outgained by more than 100 yards by the Fighting Irish. I don't trust this Aggies team.

T.M. Prediction: 28-24 USC

Line: +4.5
