EagleBank bowl odds have the Wake Forest Demon Deacons favored against the Navy Midshipmen in a rematch of a game from September. EagleBank bowl betting kicks off the bowl season on Saturday in game that can be seen on ESPN television. Eagle Bank Bowl odds show that Wake Forest is the favorite even though they lost earlier this season to the Midshipmen. Wake Forest quarterback Riley Skinner definitely wants another chance. He turned the ball over five times in the 24-17 loss as EagleBank bowl odds stats tell us. “If you’re a quarterback, and you’ve had that kind of game, the worst game of your career, you’d be crazy if you didn’t want another shot at them,” Skinner said.
Wake Forest started the season 3-0 but lost five of its last nine games to finish at 7-5 and get into EagleBank Bowl betting action thanks to their ACC tie-in. “It’s really a mixed bag — on one hand, you want to be proud that you’ve won seven games, you’re going to the third bowl in a row for the first time in school history,” coach Jim Grobe said.
According to EagleBank bowl odds stats in the first meeting between the two teams the Midshipmen rolled to a 17-0 halftime lead before Wake Forest got back in the game. Wake Forest turned it over five times in the first half and that was the difference in the game as EagleBank bowl odds stats show. As EagleBank bowl odds stats show, Wake Forest is not a turnover prone team according to EagleBank bowl odds so that game against Navy was an aberration. The Demon Deacons problems this season were scoring points as the EagleBank bowl odds reflect.

Skinner had just 2,181 yards with 12 TD’s and 7 interceptions this season as EagleBank bowl betting stats have it. D.J. Boldin was the leading receiver with 77 catches for 782 yards and three scores recorded on the EagleBank bowl betting stats. The running game was virtually non-existent.
