**Boston College vs. Boise State**

First Responder Bowl History

-- The Boston College Eagles (7-5 straight up, 7-5 against the spread) of the Atlantic Coast Conference will battle the Boise State Broncos (10-3 straight up, 7-5-1 against the spread) from the Mountain West Conference in the First Responder Bowl, formerly the Heart of Dallas Bowl.

-- The Eagles haven't had a lot of success in bowl games lately. They won the 2016 Quick Lane Bowl over Maryland by a 36-30 count, but that was their only victory in the past seven postseason games dating back to 2008. This will be their first appearnce in the First Responder Bowl, and their first postseason appearance in the state of Texas since they won the 1985 Cotton Bowl over Houston by a 45-28 score.

-- The Broncos have had a much better measure of success in bowl games recently, posting victories in seven of their past nine appearances, including last season over Oregon in the Las Vegas Bowl, 38-28. Under head coach Bryan Harsin they're 3-1 in four bowl games in each of the past four seasons. This will be Boise State's first appearance in the First Responder Bowl, and their first bowl game in the Lone Star State since dropping TCU 34-31 in the Fort Worth Bowl back on Dec. 23, 2003.

-- B.C. had an exciting season and they outperformed expectations like they usually do. The fired out of the box with three wins against UMass, Holy Cross and at Wake Forest to start 3-0 SU/ATS with an 'over' in each outing. They were humbled at Purdue Sept. 22 by a 30-13 count, but they beat fellow bowl team Temple 45-35 on Sept. 29. A narrow loss and cover at N.C. State was a tough pill to swallow, but they rattled off three straight ACC wins against Louisville, Miami and at Virginia Tech to easily attain bowl eligibility. The Eagles finished on a three-game slide and non-cover streak with losses to Clemson, Florida State and Syracuse, all bowl teams.

-- The Eagles were rather marginal in all aspects, ranking 66th in the country in total yards (404.4 yards per game), 80th in passing yards (215.2 YPG) and 51st in rushing yards (189.2 YPG). Defensively they were just 71st overall in total yards allowed (403.2 YPG), and 96th against the pass (247.8 YPG). They were slightly better in rushing defense (155.3 YPG) and points allowed (25.7 PPG), ranking 53rd overall in both areas.

-- Boise opened with an emphatic 56-20 win at Troy on Sept. 1, and they squashed UConn 62-7 as 34-point favorites in Game 2. However, they were overmatched by Power 5 Conference member Oklahoma State, and they were tripped up at home on the Smurf Turf against San Diego State to sit 3-2 SU/ATS through five games. That's when their run started, posting seven straight wins to qualify for the MWC title game. They were tripped up by Fresno State in overtime by a 19-16 score in a snowstorm. The 'under' ended up 5-0 in their final five ames, and 7-2 in the final nine.

-- The Broncos ranked 23rd in total yards (459.5 YPG), while ranking 18th in the nation with 292.0 passing yards per outing. They also checked in 24th in the land with 35.4 points per game. Defensively, Boise State was 38th overall with 355.9 YPG allowed, and they were tough against the run at 23rd in the nation with 122.9 YPG. They also yielded just 22.1 PPG, 31st overall.

is listed as questionable due to an ankle injury he has been hampered with in the second half of the season. He piled up a team-best 1,108 yards and 10 touchdowns on the ground.

-- B.C. is 9-3-1 ATS in the past 13 against winning teams, 3-1-1 ATS in the past five neutral-site games and 15-6-1 ATS in the past 22 overall. They're just 2-7 ATS in the past nine bowl games, however, and 1-9 ATS in their past 10 appearances in the month of December.

-- Boise is 7-3 ATS across their past 10 bowl appearances, while going 9-4 ATS in the past 13 neutral-site battles. However, they're just 3-7 ATS in the past 10 games played in December.

-- The over has hit in each of B.C.'s past four bowl appearances while going 5-1 in their past six non-conference tilts. The under is 4-1 in their past five games overall, however.

-- The under has cashed in five straight for Boise State, and is also 5-0 in their past five against winning teams. However, the over is 5-2 in their past seven bowl contests.

-- These teams last met Dec. 28, 2005 in the MPC Computers Bowl in Boise, with Boston College coming away with a 27-21 win.

-- Kickoff is slated for 1:30 p.m. Eastern on ESPN.

**Minnesota vs. Georgia Tech**

Quick Lane Bowl History

-- In the Quick Lane Bowl at Ford Field in Detroit we get the Minnesota Golden Gophers (6-6 straight up, 7-5 against the spread) from the Big Ten Conference squaring off against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (7-5 straight up, 5-7 against the spread) from the ACC.

-- Minnesota appeared in this game in 2015, winning 21-14 while covering (-6) against Central Michigan. Georgia Tech is making its first appearance in the game.

-- After an ugly seven-game bowl losing streak, that Quick Lane appearance in 2015 kicked off a two-game bowl win streak which also incluced a 17-12 win over Washington State in the 2016 Holiday Bowl.

-- The Yellow Jackets also had their own streak of misery in bowl games, dropping seven in a row from 2005-11. However, they're 3-1 in their past four postseason games, including a 33-18 slaying of Kentucky in the 2016 TaxSlayer Bowl. Neither of these teams appeared in a bowl game last season.

-- The Gophers started out 3-0 SU/ATS, including an impressive 21-14 win over Group of 5 contender Fresno State back on Sept. 8. They dropped four in a row from Sept. 22-Oct. 20, including lopsided losses to Maryland, Iowa, Ohio State and Nebraska, and things appeared to be going off the rails. They recorded a 38-31 win over Indiana to cover as 2 1/2-point 'dogs, but a 55-31 loss at Illinois put their bowl eligibility in doubt. However, they humbled Purdue 41-10 and beat the pants off of Wisconsin 37-15 in Madison to punch their ticket to the postseason in emphatic fashion.

-- The Yellow Jackets didn't get their first win against an FBS foe until Sept. 29, stomping Bowling Green 63-17. They pled up the points at Louisville the following week, winning 66-31 against a bad Cardinals side. Perhaps their most impressive win came Oct. 25, going to Blacksburg to push aside Virginia Tech 49-28. They gained bowl eligibility Nov. 10 with a 27-21 win over Miami, and topped Virginia 30-27 in overtime on Nov. 17 for good measure. They weren't up to the task against rival Georgia in Athens to close out the season, losing 45-21.

-- The Ramblin' Wreck ranked No. 1 in the country with 335.0 yards per game, and they were 21st in points scored with 35.6 PPG. They don't really pass the ball, as Paul Johnson's club uses the triple-option. Defensively they were adequate, ranking 45th in the country (367.8 YPG), while ranking 55th in passing yards allowed (217.9 YPG) and 50th in rush defense (149.8 YPG).

-- Ga. Tech QB TaQuon Marshall passed for just 824 yards while completing only 44.0 percent of his passes. That's not his thing. Running is his thing, and he led the team with 897 yards on the ground while piercing the end zone 11 times. TB Tobias Oliver had a team-high 12 rushing touchdowns with 807 yards on the ground (5.6 YPC). RBs Jordan Mason also had seven rushing scores and 6.2 yards per tote, and eight different Jackets had at least two rushing scores (45 total).

-- Minny had difficulty on offense, ranking 68th in the country in points scored (28.5 PPG). They also were just 89th in total yards (379.0 YPG). They'll have their hands full against the run, and they ranked just 74th in the nation in that category with 170.7 YPG. They also gave up 27.9 PPG to check in 75th in the nation.

-- For the Gophers, WR Tyler Johnson is the most dangerous player on offense, gathering 74 receptions for 1,112 yards and 10 touchdowns (15.0 average).

-- The Golden Gophers are 5-0 ATS over the past five non-conference games, but they're just 2-5-1 ATS in the past eight games following a straight-up victory. They're also 0-4 ATS in the past four following a cover.

-- The Jackets have an impressive 4-0-1 ATS mark over the past five neutral-site battles, but they're just 1-4 ATS in the past five outside the ACC. They are 5-1 ATS in the past six games played in the month of December, however.

-- The under has connected in six of the past eight non-Big 10 games for Minnesota, while going 4-0 in their past four against teams with a winning record.

-- For Ga. Tech, the over is 6-2-1 across their past nine games overall, but the under has hit in six of the past eight bowl appearances.

-- This is the first-ever meeting between Minnesota and Georgia Tech.

-- Kickoff is slated for 5:15 p.m. Eastern on ESPN.

**Texas Christian vs. California**

Cheez-It Bowl History

-- In the Cheez-It Bowl (the bowl formerly known as the Cactus Bowl), takes place at Chase Field in Phoenix, Ariz. The game features the Texas Christian Horned Frogs (6-6 straight up, 4-8 against the spread) of the Big 12 Conference facing off against the California Golden Bears (7-5 straight up, 7-5 against the spread) of the Pac-12 Conference.

-- The Horned Frogs have appeared in bowl games in six consecutive seasons, and they have won nine of their past 12 postseason tilts. However, they were edged 17-16 in the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl by Michigan State on Dec. 29, 2012 in their most recent bowl appearance in the state of Arizona. Since 2000, Gary Patterson has led his team to 17 bowls, going 10-6 heading into this one. They're also 3-0 all-time in bowl games against current Pac-12 members.

-- The Golden Bears won their most recent bowl appearance on Dec. 29, 2015 aginst Air Force in the Armed Forces Bowl, 55-36. Cal is also 5-2 SU in the past seven bowl games, and 9-4 SU in the past 13. They won the Insight Bowl on Dec. 26, 2003 in this stadium, topping Virginia Tech 52-49 in a thriller. They also won the Copper Bowl on Dec. 31, 1990 in Tucson against Wyoming in their only other appearance in a bowl game in Arizona.

-- TCU opened 2-0, including a 42-12 drumming of SMU on the road. They lost a 40-28 game in Arlington, Tex. against Ohio State, and followed that up with a 31-16 loss at Texas to fall to 2-2 SU/ATS. The Horned Frogs picked up a 17-14 win on Sept. 29 against a good Iowa State side, but lost three in a row to Texas Tech, Oklahoma and Kansas to put their bowl eligibility in danger. The loss to the Jayhawks was the real head-scratcher. However, they won three of their final four, including a 31-24 decision against Oklahoma State on Nov. 24 to secure their postseason ticket.

-- TCU was 93rd in total yards (374.6 YPG), while ranking 95th in rushing offense (148.5 YPG) and 98th in points scored (24.7 PPG). On defense, they're 28th in yardage allowed (344.4 YPG), while ranking 40th against the pass (202.6 YPG), 42nd against the rush (141.8 YPG) and 45th in points allowed (24.4 PPG).

-- Cal fired out of the gate with a 3-0 SU/1-1-1 ATS mark, including a nice 21-18 victory at BYU. They fell in three in a row from Sept. 29-Oct. 13, including a bad loss to previously winless UCLA. However, they impressed with a 12-10 win against Washington on Oct. 27, lost a narrow (but covered!) game at Washington State on Nov. 3, and won at USC on Nov. 10 for the first time at L.A. Coliseum since 2000, and first time in the series since 2003 when QB Aaron Rodgers was under center in Berkeley. They lost a rescheduled game at home Dec. 1 against Stanford after entering 'The Big Game' on a 4-1 SU/5-0 ATS run.

-- The Golden Bears offense was rather atrocious in 2018, as they ranked just 111th in the country in total yards (350.2 YPG). If they do anything well, it's run the ball, ranking 75th with 162.5 YPG, but they managed just 22.8 YPG to finish 108th overall. Defensively the Golden Bears are strong, allowing just 319.4 YPG to finish 16th in the nation, they're 23rd overall with 21.2 PPG allowed and 23rd against the pass, too.

-- TCU has quarterback issues, as QBs Shawn Robinson (shoulder) and QB Justin Rogers (knee) were lost for the season, and QB Michael Collins (foot) is listed as doubtful. The signal-caller duties will fall on QB Grayson Muehlstein, who threw for 328 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions this season, including 180 yards and two TDs in the final against OK State.

-- Cal enters 5-1 ATS over the past six games, and they're 5-2-1 ATS in the past eight non-conference battles. However, they're 1-5 ATS in the past six neutral-site games and 1-5 ATS in the past six in the month of December.

-- TCU is just 2-7 ATS in their past nine overall and 3-10 ATS in the past 13 neutral-site games, including earlier this season against Ohio State. They're 2-8 ATS in the past 10 against teams with a winning record and 2-7 ATS in their past nine bowl games.

-- The under has cashed in seven of the past eight for California, while going 5-0 in their past five games on a grass surface. The over is 9-2 in their past 11 neutral-site games and 7-2 in the past nine bowl games.

-- The over is 4-1 in TCU's past five neutral-site games and 4-1 in their past five outside of the conference. The under is 8-3-1 in their past 12 bowl games, however, and 7-3 in the past nine played in December.

-- This is the first-ever meeting between Cal and TCU on the gridiron.

-- Kickoff is slated for 9:00 p.m. Eastern on ESPN.

First Responders Bowl preview: Boston College vs. Boise State

FIRST RESPONDER BOWL STORYLINES

1. Both Boston College and Boise State will be trying to rebound from disappointing endings to their respective pre-bowl slates when they meet in the SERVPRO First Responder Bowl in Dallas on Dec. 26. The Eagles saw a promising campaign torpedoed by three straight losses to finish their regular season, including a 21-point home loss against Syracuse on Nov. 24. Boise State had won seven in a row before falling to Fresno State in the Mountain West title game, but the Broncos did finish with double-digit victories for the 16th time in their last 20 seasons.

2. If he loses in this one, Boston College coach Steve Addazio will finish with a 7-6 record for the fifth time in his six seasons in Chestnut Hill, Mass., but the school still likes the direction of the program and rewarded him with a two-year extension that will keep him with the team through 2022. Addazio is 38-38 with the Eagles and 1-3 in bowl games, and he'll be matching wits with fifth-year Boise State coach Bryan Harsin. A former quarterback with the Broncos, Harsin is 52-15 with the program and 3-1 in bowls.

3. The month-plus of rest should do wonders for the Eagles' star running back AJ Dillon, who missed two games in the middle of the season with an ankle issue and struggled at times down the stretch as the injury lingered. The sophomore finished with 1,108 yards and 10 touchdowns on the ground, lagging well behind Broncos junior Alexander Mattison, who had 1,415 yards - 400 over his last two games - and 17 scores. Boise State enters bowl season ranked 23rd nationally in run defense (122.9 yards allowed per game), while Boston College was 52nd (154.9).

TV: 1:30 p.m. ET, ESPN. LINE: Boise State -3

ABOUT BOSTON COLLEGE (7-5, 4-4 ACC): Sophomore quarterback Anthony Brown threw for 2,121 yards and 20 TDs, and he had four of his nine interceptions in the final two games of the regular season. Sophomore Kobay White had a team-high 33 catches and 526 receiving yards but senior Jeff Smith (20, 387) led the way with six TD grabs. The Eagles are tied for the lead nationally with 18 interceptions and junior defensive back Hamp Cheevers has seven of them, also tied for the most in the country.

ABOUT BOISE STATE (10-3, 7-1 Mountain West): Brett Rypien was the Mountain West Offensive Player of the Year after throwing for 3,705 yards and 30 TDs, both of which rank in the top 10 nationally. Senior wideouts Sean Modster and A.J. Richardson combined for 1,803 receiving yards and both had eight TDs through the air. Only five FBS teams had more sacks than the Broncos' 39, led by sophomore linebacker Curtis Weaver with 9.5.

PREDICTION: Boise State 31, Boston College 27

Quick Lane Bowl preview: Minnesota vs. Georgia Tech

QUICK LANE BOWL STORYLINES

1. It is the end of an era for Georgia Tech as it takes on Minnesota in the Quick Lane Bowl on Dec. 26 in Detroit as 11th-year coach Paul Johnson directs the Yellow Jackets for the final time. The 61-year-old, whose triple-option offense has given opponents fits while ranking among the nation’s top rushing attacks year-in and year-out, announced he is stepping down Nov. 28 and has spent the time since trying to deflect attention from his farewell. “To me, it’s just like getting ready for any other game,” said Johnson, who will be replaced by Temple coach Geoff Collins. “You’re just getting ready to go play a game.”

2. The Yellow Jackets reached their ninth bowl under Johnson thanks to a furious late-season hot streak, helping to erase a 1-3 start with six victories in seven games - including victories over Virginia Tech, Miami and Virginia. The rushing offense remains the focal point as Georgia Tech has rushed for a FBS-leading 334.9 yards per contest. Quarterbacks TaQuon Marshall and Tobias Oliver have combined for 1,703 rushing yards and 23 touchdowns while passing for a total of 990 yards.

3. Minnesota won three of its final five games to become bowl eligible, including a stunning 37-15 rout at Wisconsin to beat the Badgers for the first time since 2003. The Golden Gophers season may have turned when Joe Rossi was elevated to interim defensive coordinator Nov. 3 as Minnesota allowed only 49 points in its final three games after surrendering 40-plus points in four of the previous six contests. But Minnesota will not have leading tackler Blake Cashman for the bowl game as the senior is foregoing his remaining eligibility to prepare for the NFL Draft.

TV: 5:15 p.m. ET, ESPN. LINE: Georgia Tech -6

ABOUT MINNESOTA (6-6, 3-6 Big Ten): Cashman is one of two starters (along with left tackle Donnell Green) to skip the bowl game, meaning new starters such as linebacker Jacob Huff - recorded 10 tackles in each of Minnesota’s final two games - have to play well. Freshman running back Mohamed Ibrahim is ninth in the Big Ten in rushing yards (936 yards, seven touchdowns in nine games), while redshirt freshman quarterback Tanner Morgan has played more as the season has progressed, completing 59 percent of his pass attempts.

ABOUT GEORGIA TECH (7-7, 5-3 ACC): The Yellow Jackets score plenty of points, averaging 36.6 per game, but have allowed 28.9 per contest, although two of the worst performances came against powerhouses Clemson (49 points surrendered) and Georgia (45). Senior defensive lineman Anree Saint-Amour recorded team highs in tackles for loss (11), sacks (four) and forced fumbles (three), and also intercepted two passes. Marshall has rushed for 100-plus yards four times in 11 games, while surpassing 100 passing yards just three times (two of those games coming against Alcorn State and Bowling Green).

PREDICTION: Georgia Tech 34, Minnesota 24

Cheez-It Bowl preview: California vs. TCU

CHEEZ-IT BOWL STORYLINES

1. Defense figures to take center stage when California and TCU meet in the Cheez-It Bowl at Chase Field in Phoenix on Dec. 26. Cal is allowing only 21.3 points per game under defensive coordinator Tim DeRuyter, while TCU is close behind at 24.4. The Horned Frogs are 6-0 against Pac-12 opponents under coach Gary Patterson, including a 39-37 victory over Stanford in last year’s Alamo Bowl.

2. Linebackers Evan Weaver and Jordan Kunaszyk have a combined 275 tackles for Cal, which won four of five before losing 23-13 to Stanford in the Big Game on Dec. 1. The Bears opened Pac-12 play with three straight losses but later recorded signature wins over Washington (12-10) and USC (15-14) before securing a bowl berth for the second time in seven years. Kunaszyk received first team All-Pac-12 honors after recording 11 tackles for loss, four sacks and five forced fumbles.

3. TCU dropped five of its first eight games but finished by winning three of its last four, including a 31-24 home win over Oklahoma State in the season finale on Nov. 24. The Horned Frogs held opponents to an average of 344.4 yards and have been especially tough against the pass, allowing 202.6 yards. The team boasts two of the top defensive ends in the country in first team All-Big 12 selections Ben Banogu and L.J. Collier, who combined for 12.5 sacks.

TV: 9 p.m. ET, ESPN. LINE: Pick

ABOUT CAL (7-5, 4-5 Pac-12): The Bears had the worst passing offense in the Pac-12 with an average of 188.1 yards per game, but running back Patrick Laird rushed for 932 yards and five touchdowns and will be asked to carry a heavy load against the Horned Frogs. The defense is led by Kunaszyk and Weaver, a second team All-Pac-12 selection who had nine tackles for loss, 4.5 sacks and two interceptions. Cal’s impressive special teams unit features several standouts, including punter Steven Coutts and kick returner Ashtyn Davis (26.1 yards per kickoff return).

ABOUT TCU (6-6, 4-5 Big 12): The Horned Frogs won three games scoring 17 points or fewer (Iowa State, Kansas State and Baylor) and finished seventh in Big 12 in passing offense (226.8) with third-string quarterback Grayson Muehlstein taking over late in the season. Five players earned second team All-Big 12 honors, including safety Ridwan Issahaku, offensive tackle Lucas Niang, wide receiver Jalen Reagor and cornerback Jeff Gladney (one interception, 13 breakups). Reagor has caught a touchdown pass in seven consecutive games and finished the regular season with a team-high 72 receptions for 1,061 yards and nine scores.

PREDICTION: TCU 21, Cal 17
