Will be updating the Bowl picks on this thread. Had a great season with a Fantastic finish, hitting 65% winners in college football and finishing the season 12-1!!

12/18

**Miami, OH -13' over Louisville. Hard to argue against one of the top offenses and QBs in the league that have dominated the competition, including big Wins Over K-State and dominating the MAC. I'd love to see this team go against much better top 10 competion, as Louisville will be no threat tonight. They can hang with the country's best and Rothelsburger (spelling) will dominate!!

1-0 for the Bowl Season so far.

**NC State -12 over Kansas. Kansas has been a good play all year and I really hate to go against them here. But I think NC State may be too much. I nice going out party for QB Phillip Rivers, a HEALTHY RB McClendon, and a decisive edge in defense the Wolfpack own. They should be able to run and pass at will over the Jayhawks who don't have the talent to keep up. The Jayhawks do have the motivation not being in a bowl game for quite some time, but overall talent and defensive edge goes to NC STATE, 38-20.

Geek,
another great start to bowl season.
I started well winning with Memphis, Miami OH, and the over last night, but like a donkey I also had Kansas with that over.

Looking to get back on track tonight. You have any feeling on this game? I hate to lay that many points to a home team in a bowl game..

Trying to get a better read on this.

I think the total might be the toughest play. BSU has a top ranked D, and TCU used to have a solid D (about 4 games ago, and for some reason can't stop ANYONE for the last couple of games). Makes me wonder if it is going to be a repeat of last night's game (NCSU/KU).

Hope you keep your roll going! I remember last year finishing up the season on fire with my bowl games.
3-0 so far in my ESPN Bowl Mania plays (with BSU tonight).

G/L
BTF.

Thanks Everyone. I also had Memphis but didn't post it as a play and won't take credit for it. Woulda been a posted play if their top RB were playing.

2-0 so far and look to keep it rolling!!!!

**Boise State -11 over TCU. I looked hard and long at a reason to take TCU. I only found one, and its because they are at home. Not good enough. Their unimpressive pass defense will kill them in this match up. TCU is a great running team, but Boise can stop the run and have a solid all around defense. TCU has managed to "Squeek bye" teams they've probably shoulda blown out, but couldn't. I was wondering if they just gave up vs. SMU in the season finally. Maybe they did, or maybe they really aren't that good like everyone has said during the BCS talk. Boise State has won and won in impressive fashion. A great team, a great coach, and a covering machine that IMO TRIES to cover the double digit spreads they lay all season. Dinwiddie is a special QB that doesn't turn the ball over!!!! The offensive attack will blow the doors of TCU, in their house and walk away with a 20+ point victory!!!!

Should be a laugher guys!!

Well, the Joke was on me last night as Boise State couldn't get the job done, dropping my Bolw record to 2-1. Some Christmas eve and Christmas day cheer should change the mood!!

**Under 53 N.Mex/Oreg St. Both have good defenses, especially at stopping the run and both teams like the run. If there were an advantage, it would be Oregon States passing game vs the N.Mexico Passing defense. But Oregon State has lacked consistancy in their passing game and may take advantage and eek out a victory, BUT the Under 52 pts as the better Play in this game.

**Hawaii -11 over Houston. Don't look for defense out of Houston in this one. They simply don't have one and Hawaii should rip threw them with ease. Playing at home is also a huge advantage as the Houston players are just happy to be in Hawaii. Hawaii has a much better defense and I like them to handle the Houston offense. Houstons defense will be no match for Hawaii as Hawaii cruises by 3TDs

GL and Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

Hit with Oregon State the night before.

Good luck tonight...

I have a big play on Va Tech. Also like the over in the N'west/BG game.

That was tough. Can't give up a bunch of 40+ yard TD Runs. Some really bad INTs cost us some points there aswell for BG who shoulda won by 10+. I recovered a little on the OVER in the late game, but my posted record is taking a beating. The good thing is, I haven't been betting a lot of units so the loses aren't that bad. Haven't come across a Bowl Game that I really loved besides maybe NC State. So 2-4 to start out the bowl season while disapointing, I look to finish strong. I will finish strong!!!

**UVA -2' over Pitt. Nothing spectacular, I just Like Schaub and Lundy to control the game. Pitt will have trouble running and you better believe they'll have a couple of guys on Fitzgerald. Just don't like the Pitt offense and Groh is smart enough to take Fitzgerald out of the equation and Pitt will struggle to score. UVA is the better team and should win, predicting 27-17.

3-4 so far this Bowl season but will cruise past .500 today with some strong plays!!

***Texas Tech -10 over Navy. Just picked it up before kickoff at 10, Navy will not be able to hang with the Red Raider offense. I see a one sided shootout and have Tech winning by 20, 40-20.


***Texas -10 over Washington State. Been solid all year running the ball and on defense, one of the best secondaries in the nation will shut down the Couger offense and hobbling QB Kegle.

**UCLA -3 over Fresno State.

Time for Kickoff!!!!!

Texas one of the best secondaries in the country ? I don't think they have played against too many good passing teams which makes their stats a little misleading. Wash st has played against some top passing teams. If kegel can't go for wash st or is sorearmed I like your pick then. Carefull with this one. Good luck with your wages.
