Camellia Bowl Friday, Dec 25, 2020|MARSHALL vs. BUFFALO

This one takes place on Christmas Day, so If I haven’t said it over 100 times here we go again,Merry Christmas to everyone and all the best during the holiday season.

The Marshall Thundering Herd come into this matchup with a 7-2 record, and they will be looking to rebound after dropping the Conference USA Championship against the UAB Blazers.

The Vegas bookmakers opened this game up as Buffalo (-1) with an O/U of (54.5) and the line quickly moved with sharp money hitting buffalo to the point where the line is currently sitting at Buffalo (-4.5) O/U (54.0).

Marshall are 7-1 SU in their last 8 games. The total has gone OVER in 7 of Marshall’s last 10 games. Buffalo are 11-3 ATS in their last 14 games. The total has gone OVER in 9 of Buffalo’s last 12 games.

The Buffalo Bulls come into this matchup with a 5-1 record, and they will be looking to rebound after dropping their recent game against the Ball State Cardinals in MAC Championship, 38-28.
If you think back a month you’ll recall Marshall was actually in the top 15 and the AP pool and then they took it on the chin as at 24 pt favorite losing to Rice of all teams.

Marshall is 6-1 SU/ATS in bowls under Doc Holliday but with three major players missing RB Knox being the key we don’t see many point on their end and this is probably one of the best D’s Buffalo has faced
all season long so point count be at a premium.

Projected Score: Buffalo 31, Marshall 17 =Take Buffalo (-4.5)
