Colin Cowherd Week 16 2024 Blazing 5

  1. Indiana +7.5
  2. Texas -12
  3. Rams -3
  4. 49ers -1
  5. Bills -14

Indiana +7.5 vs Notre Dame

Notre Dame’s defense showed weakness with USC gaining 560 yards and recent opponents rushing for over 190 yards. Indiana is the second-highest scoring team and coming off their most dominant performance against Purdue.

Weather will be a factor with upper 20s temperatures and wind chill in teens, favoring the run game. Coach quality and weather conditions favor Indiana keeping it close.

Colin predicts Notre Dame wins 27-23.

Texas -12 vs Clemson

Texas is 11-0 against non-Georgia teams and their defense could potentially score against Clemson.

Clemson appears outmatched as the only playoff team with three losses, going 0-2 against SEC teams with a 51-17 scoring deficit. Texas’s conservative offense should be sufficient given Clemson’s offensive struggles.

Colin projects Texas wins 30-13.

Rams -3 vs Jets

Rams are coming off extra rest after Thursday game and control their destiny. They’ve had no turnovers or sacks in last two games with healthy O-Line, going 5-0 when turnover-free this year.

Jets have had close games but the matchup means more to LA during a noisy week for New York.

Colin predicts Rams win 27-23.

49ers -1 vs Dolphins

Miami’s offense has been figured out with Tyreek Hill only exceeding 100 yards once in 13 games and Tua not completing passes over 20 yards recently.

49ers excel against sub-.500 teams, averaging 32 points and are 4-0 against such opponents.

Coming off extra rest, Colin projects 49ers win 28-24.

Bills -14 vs Patriots

Bills have won nine straight regular season home games, scoring 30+ in eight straight. Strong offensive line has only allowed 13 sacks all year.

Patriots have lost four straight with offensive struggles and coaching questions. Bills are outscoring opponents by 17 at home.

Colin predicts Bills win 30-13.
