    Analysis

    Houston is playing just its second true road game of the season and while I don't love this Baylor team overall. I'm going to back them here getting 4.5. The Cougars have been living on the edge lately, beating Middle Tennessee by nine, Cincinnati by seven and Texas Tech by four. I expect another tight game on Saturday that goes down to the wire. I took Baylor +4.5 at DK. Don't bet below +3.5.

    Analysis

    Some Coastal entries have slowed down the go-go W&M offense across the past two weeks and expect Drexel to employ some of the same tactics on Saturday at Philadelphia. Dragons HC Zach Spiker is very comfortable with grinders from his days at Army, and might be more emboldened to slow the pace on the Tribe and its near 85 ppg offense after squeezing the life out of Stony Brook 56-37 on Thursday night, holding the Seawolves to just 12 for 59 FG shooting. Earlier, Drexel held other Coastal contenders Charleston and UNC-Wilmington well beneath their scoring averages. Regional sources are noting how the Tribe deals with foes controlling the pace, as King Rice's Monmouth effectively did in Thursday's win for the Hawks. Play W&M-Drexel Under

    Analysis

    What an incredible Ravens-Steelers finale holy cow. Guess we have to deal with Aaron Rodgers one more week at least. I want to grab the hook on this Saturday game while it's there because I think this is too high even if the Panthers might be one of the worst playoff teams in modern history. Short week for L.A. and it lost in Charlotte, 31-28, in Week 13. Kinda doubt the Rams lose again but certainly believe the Cats can hang within 10.

    Analysis

    This is tracking to be the third time a team has been favored by double digits on the road in a playoff game. In the first two, the favorites failed to cover, with the Tom Brady Bucs winning 31-23 against a 7-9 Washington and the 7-9 Seahawks beating the Saints 41-36 in the Beastquake game. The only other home 'dog of more than 7 also won outright in the Tim Tebow playoff game. Home 'dogs of at least 3.5 are 6-2 ATS in the playoffs since 2010 as well. Yes, the Rams are a much better team than the Panthers, but that didn't prevent them from losing outright in Carolina as double-digit favorites in Week 13. My ratings make this line Rams -7.

    Picked: Jan 6 @ 11:24am

    Analysis

    DraftKings. Blake Corum finished the season clearing this rush attempts line in seven of his final 10 full games (and was tracking for another before leaving with an injury in the second quarter). One of the misses was against the Panthers, in a bizarro gamescript that saw the Panthers dominate time of possession (35 minutes to 25). I’m not expecting the same on Saturday, trusting the Rams to force Bryce Young to throw the ball (Panthers running backs had an absurd 35 carries in their first matchup). Corum did pop off in the first matchup for 81 yards on seven totes, and he’s been one of the Rams best weapons down the stretch.
