James Madison has most everyone on their winning team in the portal right now including their QB, their coach and coaching staff have all left already as well. It will also be tough to defend the triple option in this matchup as they will need a lot of time and practice with what is left on this roster. Military teams have a 41-16 ATS win record in bowl games going back to 1989 so this game will be a hard fought match and where Mack sees Air Force winning and covering the game as they have everyone left on their roster. The discipline and effort that comes from military teams is what carries their bowl record achievements. These two teams have never met before so each has that advantage, but more so AF as they have a quality triple option weapon to unleash. Both have good defenses and offenses so this will be a tight close game down the stretch, so take any points given and take the underdog to upset one of the better teams this season in the league.

James Madison are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games. Air Force are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games played in December. AF is 1-0 ATS in the last three seasons and 6-1 ATS since 1997 as a neutral field underdog of 3 points or less.

Best bet: take any points with Air Force.
