Tulsa vs Old Dominion Updated Prediction and Odds for Myrtle Beach Bowl
By Matt De Saro
The Old Dominion Monarch had to go on one hell of a run just to make it into the Myrtle Beach Bowl this year. After an objectively bad start the Monarchs won their last five games to earn their spot in this game against the Tulsa Golden Hurricanes.
The Hurricanes won their last three games of the year as well and both teams finished with equal 6-6 records to earn the chance to face-off on Monday night.
It will be a fun matchup to watch and I think this game plays out to be a lot more competitive than the spread suggests it will be. Here are the updated odds for the Myrtle Beach Bowl, courtesy of WynnBET Sportsbook.

Tulsa vs Old Dominion Prediction and Pick
As I highlighted last week in my piece about trap games during bowl season, I think the Monarchs are going to put up a real fight in this game. Just the fact that they are playing in this game is a big deal after starting the season 1-6 and I think they continue to play well with the momentum at their backs.
The Monarchs are not only winning, but they are also covering with a perfect 5-0 ATS record in their last five games overall. The Golden Hurricanes, on the other hand, struggle to cover as a favorite and have won just one game by more than one TD. I think this spread now at 9.5 is even better for us and am still siding with the underdogs to cover on Monday night.
Pick: Old Dominion +9.5 (-110)
