Some Bowl Stats and Team Trends I've Compiled over the years:
Outback Bowl

Citrus Bowl

Rose Bowl
Pac 12 = 8-2 SU+ATS
Stanford 47-6 SU in own State

For you Scotty
--Every team that lost their championship game has lost both SU and ATS so far this year. Most of the games have not been close. You may want to consider going against Iowa & Florida today.
--To date, bowl underdogs are 10-21 SU and 13-18 ATS.
---Through Thursday 12/31 the line has only come into play 3 times this bowl season. As an update the line came in to play only 10 times in the last 105 bowl games. If you like a dog today, take them on the ML.
Some bowl specific notable trends (since 2009 )
