Conference By Conference Bowl Trends
By Jeff Scott Sports
ATLANTIC COAST
Back in 2010-2011 the ACC sent 9 teams to a bowl game and this year they will send 8. Three of them will be paying as favorites, while five will be in the role of a dog. This year's representative in a BCS bowl is once again Virgini Tech as they take on Michigan in the Sugar Bowl.
Underdogs have nearly automatic in ACC bowl games of late. Including last vyears 4-2 ATS mark, dogs have gone 31-15-1 ATS (67%) in the last 47 games. Over the last 4 years that Dog record is 251-2-1 ATS (68%)
ACC Favorites are just 9-11 SU and 6-14 ATS the last 5 Seasons
Against non-BCS conferences the ACC has been involved in some high scoring games, going 9-5 Over in the last 14 games, with a total average of 54;.9 ppg being scored. Versus other BCS schools the ACC has played low scoring games with the Under going 8-20 in the last 28 games, which includes a 2-3 Under mark last year. Those games produced less than 45 ppg.
The ACC has enjoyed bowl game success vs the big East (17-12 SU & 19-9-1 ATS) and the PAC-10/12 (5-4 SU & 6-3 ATS the last 9). Now last year the ACC did go 2-0 SU & ATS vs the SEC, but they have gone just 8-19 SU and 10-15-2 ATS vs them since 1996.
BIG EAST
The Big east will send 5 teams to bowl games this year and two of this years best bowl matchups will be vs the ACC and that has proven difficult in recent years (See Above).
Including 4-1 ATS last year the Big East is just 23-24-1 ATS since 2002. However they have won 21 of their last 29 SU.
Favored teams have been the most profitable side in recent Big East bowl games, going 29-11 SU and 23-16-1 ATS, since 2003. During that span, Big East teams are 17-4 SU and 12--8-1 ATS as chalk and 8-12 SU and 9-11 ATS as a dog.
As dogs of 4.5 or more in bowl games, Big East teams have struggled mightily with a 4-16 SU mark and 5-15 ATS since 1994. As double digit dogs the Big East is 0-7 ATS and have been outscored 288-100.
BIG 10
For the 4th straight year, Big 10 teams are dogs in the majority of their bowl games. In the previous 3 seasons Big Ten teams have been dogs in 18 of 22 games, while this year Big 10 teams are dogs in 6 of 9 games. History shows that laying points in Big 10 bowl games has not been a profitable strategy.
Since 200, Big 10 teams area dismal 7-20 ATS in the role of a favorite.The bigger the line the worse they are also as they have lost their last 11 ATS as a favorite of 5.5 or more.
Last year Favorites in games involving the Big 10 were 7-1 SU and 5-3 ATS, making it a 4 year mark of 23-7 SU and 16-14 ATS.
Since 1998 the Big 10 has has gone 24-12-1 ATS as dogs of 4 or more, despite last years 1-2 ATS mark.
BIG 12
Of the 9 Big 12 teams going bowling this year, six are favorites, with 3 of those teams being favored by more than a TD--- Oklahoma -14 vs Iowa, Texas A&M -10 vs Northwestern and Baylor -9.5 vs Washington. As you'll read below, large Big 12 favorites are not a good bet.
13 of 23 bowl games involving big 12 teams over the last 2 seasons have gone under the total. The Over had been 18-8 in the previous 26 games.
Avoid laying a TD or more with Big 12 teams as they are just 7-20-1 ATS in that situation since 1998.
Big 12 dogs were 0-2 SU & ATS last year, but in the last 7 years, Big 12 bowl dogs have gone 23-20 ATS.
Bowl games pitting the Big 12 vs the Big 10 have been dominated by the dog, as that team is 17-9 ATS in the last 26 such games. Also in Big 12 vs PAC10/12 bowl games the dog is a solid 16-6 ATS since 1998.
CONFERENCE USA
Conference USA fields five bowl teams this year with two faves and 3 dogs. The conference has been historically solid when favored as you will read below, plus 2 teams play BCS conference teams and that works against Conference USA.
The favorite was just 4-8 ATS in bowl games featuring the Conference USA the last 2 seasons, which buccked a recent run of favorite success (35-12 SU and 28-18-1 ATS) since 2001.
As dogs of less than a TD Conference USA bowl teams have been very bad going 3-18 SU and 4-17 ATS. The Under is 12-9 in those games, with Conference USA teams topping 17 points just 9 times.
Against BCS teams Conference USA teams have gone just 1-13 SU and 3-10-1 ATS.
There has been some interesting trends when Conf USA teams meet up with other mid-level teams (MAC, WAC, MTW) in bowl games of late. Favorites in these games have gone 22-8 SU and 18-12 ATS the last 30 games. The under is also 21-14 the last 12 years. In games vs the MAC or MT West, Conf USA has gone Under in 18 of the last 24 games played.
INDEPENDENTS
BYU and Notre Dame represent the Independent bowlers this year. Notre Dame has been pegged as a 3 point dog to FSU. That is not a good spot for the Irish, since Independent dogs have not been as profitable as Independent Favs.
History has shown that the favorite is the only side to play in Independent Bowl games. Since the 1997 Independence Bowl game the favorite has gone 14-3 SU and 12-5 ATS.
As bowl favorites, Independent teams are 5-0 SU and 4-1 ATS since 1993, while as dogs of a TD or less they are just 6-10 ATS.
MID-AMERICAN
After a poor two-year mark of 1-9 SU and 0-10 ATS (outscored by an average of 12.5 ppg), the MAC went 2-2 SU and 2-1-1 ATS last year. The MAC will try and keep the winning going this year with 5 bowl team, but only one vs a BCS school (Western Michigan vs Purdue). That is not good for WMU as the MAC is just 1-9 ATS vs BCS schools in bowl games.
Favorites in MaAC Bowl games have absolutely dominated, going 29-4 SU and 24-8-1 ATS, since 2001.
Since 2002, the MAC has been a bowl dog 18 times, going just 1-17 SU and 3-14-1 ATS.
Remarkably favored teams are 16-1 SU and 15-2 ATS in bowl games between the MAC and other B-Level teams (C-USA, Mtn. West and the WAC)
MOUNTAIN WEST
This is certainly a conference on the rise with an 8-2 SU & 7-1 ATS mark the last 2 seasons. After being favored in 4 or 5 games last year the MWC is favored in 3 of their 5 games this year, but based on the recent success of MWC dogs this is not a good thing.
The MWC 's success over the last 2 years wasn't a huge surprise, since the conference usually cranks out ATS winners in bowls. The MWC is 25-17 ATS the last 11 seasons.
The MWC defenses have stepped it up in bowl games of late, holding 15 of their last 24 opponents to 20 points or less, resulting in 15 Unders and just 9 Overs. When MWC teams are a bowl game favorite the Under has gone 15-4 (including SDSU game), since 2002.
When the MWC is a dog of at least a TD they have gone 4-4 SU and 7-1 ATS.
In expected lower scoring game (OU line of 47 or less), MWC teams are 8-2 SU and ATS.
PAC-12
The PAC-12 representation has increased from 4 to 7 teams this year, with UCLA coming in with a losing record (6-7). Unfortunately for Pac-12 lovers Oregon is the only team favored team of 7+ this year and Pac-12 favorites have gone 10-5 ATS the last 4 bowl seasons.
As bowl dogs the Pac-12 is 13-16 SU, but a very nice 22-7 ATS since 1997. When getting 5.5 points or more the record is a sparkling 15-1 ATS, since 1996.
Laying big wood is not something you'll want to do with Pac-12 teams as Pac 10 faves of more than a TD are just 5-14 ATS the last 19 games.
The Pac -12 has not fared well vs non-BCS schools, posting a 6-15 ATS mark the last 21 games.
SOUTHEASTERN CONFERENCE
The SEC is sending 9 teams to bowl games this year after sending 10 teams te last 2 years. last year vteh SEC was favored in 7 of 10 bowls, but only went 5-5 SU and ATS. This year all nine teams are facing opponents from the power conferences.
In the last 6 years of bowl games, the SECis 30-16 SU and 27-18-1 ATS.
Although SEC dogs were just 1-2 the last 2 bowl seasons, the conference is still a solid 28-15 ATS as bowl dogs. The Under has gone 27-15-1 in these games, including 3-0 last year.
SEC dogs of 4.5 or more have gone a nice and tidy 15-5 ATS since 1999.
The SEC has been matched up against non-BCS schools just 9 times in the last 19 years, going 6-3 SU and 5-4 ATS.
The SEC has gone just 1-7 SU & ATS vs the Big East.
SUN BELT
Two of the 3 Sun belt games have been played so far. The SBC has played very well the last 2 years with a 3-1-1 ATS (3-2 SU) mark, while averaging 37.2 ppg. Stats below include Ul Laff game.
The Sun Belt had it's first bowl invite in 2001 and is 8-9 SU and 9-7-1 ATS.
Dogs are 5-4 SU and 7-2 ATS in the SBC's ;last 8 bowl games.
11 of the last 13 SBC bowl games have gone over the total.
WESTERN ATHLETIC
The WAC is sending 3 teams to bowls (Utah State has played). Over the last 4 seasons the WAC has won just 6 of 16 bowl games. Stats below include Utah State game.
The last 4 holiday seasons have been rough on the WAC as they have gone just 6-11 SU 7 ATS combined during their bowl seasons. The last decade has seen dogs dominate in games involving WAC teams as the dogs is 29-15 ATS (21-23 SU), since 1999.
WAC teams as DD dogs in bowl games have gone 1-4 SU, but a perfect 5-0 ATS.
The WAC holds is own vs BCS Schools, going 13-12 SU and 14-9 ATS, since 1997, including 10-4 ATS as a dog of 3 or more.
WAC teams as favorites have been awful since 1999, going 10-11 SU and just 6-15 ATS.
