GMAC Bowl - Central Michigan vs Troy

Central Michigan may be ranked, and they may be favored in 2010 GMAC Bowl odds on Wednesday at 7:00pm EST but they won’t have their head coach and they will basically be playing a road game since the GMAC Bowl is in Mobile, Alabama. Head coach Butch Jones bolted for Cincinnati so the Chippewas will have to find a way to win in college football odds without him on Wednesday as they face Troy in the GMAC Bowl. It didn’t work very well for Cincinnati earlier this bowl season without their head coach Brian Kelly as they were routed by Florida.

Central Michigan is a 2.5-point favorite in GMAC Bowl college football picks at online sportsbooks with a total of 63. Heading into 2010 GMAC Bowl odds, Central Michigan won the Mid-American Conference for the third time in four seasons. They averaged 32.6 points per game with Jones as head coach and they won the MAC title game in college football odds over Ohio that got them into this game against Troy. When Brian Kelly left for Notre Dame, the Bearcats wanted Jones and he took the job. "We are very thankful for the contributions Butch Jones has made to our football program, our university and our community," athletic director Dave Heeke said.

"Any opportunity that arises for him is a reflection of the high-quality student-athletes and strong tradition that Central Michigan has enjoyed. We are excited to be a Top 25 program preparing for our fourth consecutive bowl game.” Central Michigan will be led by associate coach Steve Stripling for the GMAC bowl game. "I'm very excited about the opportunity to lead this program," Stripling said, "We want to make this a winning experience and have an enjoyable experience as well. This team has accomplished a lot already this season, and we are looking forward to achieving our goals of being bowl champions and finishing in the Top 25."

Central Michigan still has quarterback Dan LeFevour for one more game though. He threw for 27 touchdowns this season to lead the Chippewas. His favorite target is Bryan Anderson who has caught at least one pass in an NCAA record 53 consecutive games. Troy has an offense that is almost as good as Central Michigan’s. They averaged 33.1 points per game this season and more than 41 in their last six games. They have an excellent quarterback as well in Levi Brown who was second in the nation with 322.3 passing yards per game. The Trojans are 8-2 ATS in college football odds for their last 10 games overall. The Trojans are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 non-conference games. The Chippewas are 25-9-2 ATS in their last 36 games as a favorite.

Bergen's College Football Picks: The GMAC Bowl on ESPN is expected to be a close one with the spread going back and forth from 2 to 2.5. Central Michigan had a great year at 11-2 straight up but and 9-3 against the spread. Troy also had a respectable season going 9-3 straight up and 8-4 against the spread. My college football pick in 2010 GMAC Bowl odds is to take Central Michigan laying the points against Troy to the UNDER. Vegas odds at the MGM Mirage sportsbook have Central Michigan -2.5 favorites in college football odds against Troy with a total of 63.5 UNDER -110.
