Time to dust off the bowl running dogs and maybe sprinkle in a couple playoff games. The probable running dogs did well last year (7-4) and I had a good 2023 bowl season going 16-7. I'm going on the 19th year of doing these running dogs. By their standards, they had a terrible regular season, but still hit around 53%. Hopefully they improve for the bowls. The Probable Running Dogs (PRD's) have hit 60.63% over the last 18 years, with a total of only 4 losing bowl seasons. The last 3 years they have gone 10-3, 11-6, 7-4. The transfer portal opened just 3 days ago, so I'm going to be pretty careful posting my bowl plays too far ahead of the game. The playoffs are a different story since those teams should have everybody ready to play and motivated.
Here is this year's Running Dogs. I got these lines on the opening numbers, so the majority of them have changed. I played them all blindly for a half a unit, but they aren't my official plays, nor are they my opinions of the games. They are strictly the PRD numbers, and nothing more:
The 2024-25 potential Bowl Running Dogs:
204 UNLV +4**
206 Sam Houston +6 (D)
223 USF +3
238 Washington State +7
240 USC +3.5
251 ECU +5.5
245 ULL +10.5 (D)**
253 BYU +3 (D)
257 Iowa +3.5 (D)
260 Michigan +11.5
265 Baylor +2
280 Va Tech +4.5
** G5 vs P4
Potential Playoff game predictions:
Texas v ASU … Devils would not be the PRD
Ohio St v Oregon … if Ohio State is the dog they’d be the PRD w/ better D … so would Tennessee
Boise State vs Penn State …. Boise will be the PRD, but tough to “see” them outrushing PSU
Notre Dame vs UGA … The Irish will be the PRD w/ the better D

I hope they do better than they did in the regular season. But who knows? This portal stuff is getting crazy with these bowls. Hope you a profitable bowl season Bridge

I've got a lean tonight on Sammy Houston +3.5. They are one of my running dogs, but they've lost some value from when I played them at +6 for a half unit...UNLV won last night making the running dogs 1-0. But the line moved a full touchdown from my +4 number so I didn't make them a play....Good luck tonight!

The running dogs are 2-0 so far. Jax St isn't a running dog, but they do run the ball well. Just a pizza and wings bet on Jax St +7 (-119) I may have a play on the game tonight. Just waiting to see what the line does.
