I would sincerely advise you to only wager 1/4 of the maximum amount that you can afford to lose.

Like I said, I bet vegas had trouble thinking of the point spread for this game. Auburn is pretty good. UCF is pretty good. Its an intriguing matchup.

Auburn is favored for obvious reasons. But, UCF, watch out. Don't get caught up in the whole 'smaller school/conference' and can't compete thing.

2014 Fiesta bowl, Baylor won the Big12 and was favored by 17 points over UCF.

UCF 52 Baylor 42 Final.

With that said, I ain't betting anything. The sane side of my brain says UCF can't beat Auburn, in contrast, my crazy black-n-gold goggles side of the brain says UCF wins... Hoping for an upset. Would be huge for UCF going into 2018. Monumental undefeated season beating the
team that beat #1 Georgia and Alabama.

Btw, I think it will be Georgia and Alabama in the National Championship game.

fyi, UCF qb McKenzie Milton finished 8th in the Heisman voting.

2018 could be his year to go higher.

New Head Coach Heupel finished 2nd in the heisman as a player for Oklahoma, and has coached two Qbs for the win. 2003 Jason White and 2008 Sam Bradford

Thus, the Peach bowl is the kick off for Milton's Heisman trophy campaign!

(dear football gawd don't smack me down with an embarrassing bowl loss for boasting too much)

Sorry but no. It was off the board until about 24 hours after the bowl matchups were announced ..... but that was because the Auburn coaching situation was a bit up in the air .... as soon as it was announced that Malzahn had signed a new contract, Auburn was listed as a 10.5-11 point favorite. That settled down to 9.5 in a day or so, were it has remained.

Agreed.  Probably comes down to whether Auburn's backs are healthy.

Yes, been searching the web looking/hoping auburn RB's can't play or declare for the draft/arrest/suspensions. Anything! LOL.

Got my Peach bowl seat assignments yesterday. Hope I'm not making this trip in disappointment. Always a long drive home from UCF after a loss, even longer from Atlanta!

UCF starts bowl game practice today. Meanwhile all of UCF's interim coaches are out recruiting for Nebraska. Ugh.

Scott Frost at today's Peach Bowl Media conference after UCF practiced. Good to see or at least hear he is 100 percent committed.

Milton won't make it in the NFL but he is a great option college qb. IF and dear football gawds be kind, UCF beats Auburn and Milton has a great game, he should be on preseason Heisman list. That is if the media can get past their Power 5 biased opinions.

You never know about him making it in the NFL.

He's a half inch taller than Russell Wilson.

Milton just needs to beef up to 190 - 200 pounds from his 177 or so.
