  CFB(209) Liberty at (210) Georgia Southern2:30pm EST - Dec 21/2019
  THE PLAY: Liberty 6.0 (-108)

  I think Liberty is a very live dog in this one. First bowl as a member of the FBS in just two years since joining. Buckshot Calvert + Antonio Gandy Golden is a potent combo better than anything Georgia Southern will have seen in the Sun Belt. Troy and Arkansas State were able to slice them up through the air.

  Extra time to prepare for the triple option helps as well. The Flames defense needs some work, but getting almost a touchdown here, I'll take the underdog who will have the crowd advantage as well. Liberty will travel.

  Liberty 16-7 against the spread as an underdog the last three seasons.

  NFL(307) Philadelphia Eagles at (308) Washington Redskins1:00pm EST - Dec 15/2019
  THE PLAY: Washington Redskins 5.5 (-108)

  This is the juiciest of sandwiches for the road team in this one. The Eagles expended a ton to beat the Giants at home in overtime on Monday Night Football. Along the way, they lost Alshon Jeffery and Lane Johnson who both won't be available for Sunday. Boston Scott, Greg Ward and Josh Perkins are the ones making catches late in the game. They've also got the Cowboys at home in what will be a huge game in terms of deciding who will win the NFC East next week. Washington has actually played better as of late winning two of their last three with the loss coming by five at Green Bay. The Redskins defense has cut Josh Norman out of the lineup and the secondary has improved. The offense still isn't very good with Dwayne Haskins under center, but if they can get AP going then they'll reduce the amount of possessions and shorten the game. Way back in week one, Philly won 32-27 over the Skins in a game that saw Washington blow a 20-7 halftime lead. Give me the home team here.
