On Thursday, Washington D.C.'s RFK Stadium will host the 2012 Military Bowl, which will feature the San Jose State Spartans and the Bowling Green Falcons (3 p.m. ET on ESPN).

The Spartans (10-2) are entering the game as the favorite to defeat the Falcons (8-4), as many college football experts are picking and predicting them to win.

A majority of the CBSSports.com's college football experts are picking San Jose State to win the game, while Bruce Feldman was the only pundit to go out on a limb and take the Falcons.

Another website picking Bowling Green is NBC Sports' College Football Talk, which thinks the Falcons will beat Spartans, 24-20.

However, nearly 65 percent of the pickers at PhilSteele.com are taking San Jose State.

According to Oddshark.com, San Jose State opened as a 7 1/2-point favorite over Bowling Green. Bovada.com currently has the Spartans as a 7-point favorite.
