    The 20th-ranked Texas Longhorns look to extend their bowl dominance over the Pac-12 when they take on the No. 12 Washington Huskies on Thursday in the Alamo Bowl. The Longhorns (8-4), who are 31-24-2 all-time in bowl games, are 8-4 against Pac-12 teams, including a 55-23 win over Colorado in last year's Alamo Bowl. Texas is 4-1 all-time in the Alamo Bowl. The Huskies (10-2), meanwhile, are 19-20-1 in bowl games dating back to the 1924 Rose Bowl. They are 0-1 at the Alamo Bowl, losing 67-56 to Baylor in 2011.

    The game from the Alamodome in San Antonio kicks off at 9 p.m. ET. Texas is favored by 3 points at Caesars Sportsbook, while the over/under is set at 66.5 (see up-to-date odds for every game this week on our college football odds page). 

    Before making any Texas vs. Washington picks, you NEED to check out the college football predictions from the SportsLine Projection Model.

    The SportsLine Projection Model simulates every FBS college football game 10,000 times. Over the past six-plus years, the proprietary computer model has generated a stunning profit of almost $2,500 for $100 players on its top-rated college football picks against the spread. Anyone who has followed it has seen HUGE returns.

    The model knows redshirt freshman quarterback Quinn Ewers has guided the Longhorns to six wins in his first nine career starts. The six victories are tied for the third-most by a freshman in program history. The transfer from Ohio State finished the regular season by completing 141 of 249 passes (56.6%) for 1,808 yards, 14 touchdowns and six interceptions with a 131.4 rating. He completed 18 of 31 passes for 197 yards and two touchdowns at Kansas State on Nov. 5. That marked the fifth time in his first six starts he had thrown multiple touchdown passes.

    The model also knows junior quarterback Michael Penix Jr. powers the Huskies. Penix is coming off a dominant performance at Washington State on Nov. 26. In that game, he completed 25 of 43 passes (58.1%) for 485 yards, three touchdowns and one interception. It was his third 400-plus passing game of the year. He also rushed twice for 34 yards and two touchdowns. He completed 36 of 44 passes (81.8%) for 516 yards and four touchdowns in a 49-39 victory over Arizona on Oct. 15.

    Now, it has set its sights on Texas vs. Washington. We can tell you the model is leaning Under the total, and it also says one side of the spread hits well over 60% of simulations! You ABSOLUTELY need to see it before locking in any college football picks.
