Right out of the gate in the AutoNation Cure Bowl in Orlando, the AAC’s Tulane Green Wave takes on the Sun Belt’s Louisiana Ragin Cajuns at 1:30 p.m. on CBS Sports Network. Tulane is listed as a 3.5-point favorite with the total set 59 points. The Green Wave have won five of their last seven games against Louisiana straight-up, but the Ragin Cajuns hold a 4-1 edge against the spread in the last five matchups.
The early betting consensus at BetAnySports is leaning towards Tulane both SU and ATS at 59 percent. The Appalachian State Mountaineers beat Louisiana 30-19 on Dec. 1 as heavy 17.5-point favorites to win the Sun Belt Conference Championship.
They will return to action this Saturday as seven-point favorites against Conference USA’s Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders in this year’s New Orleans Bowl in a 9 p.m. start on ESPN. The betting line for the total has been set at 50.5 points. The Blue Raiders lost to UAB 27-25 as slight 1.5-point favorites in this year’s C-USA title game. This was the first time they failed to cover in their last six games. Appalachian State is 11-3-2 ATS over its last 16 games.
