Which team will least likely show up for its Bowl Game?

[Brock Landers]

Notre Dame...who the hell is running that ship right now?!

 

[sportsbet]

Joe Pa always had his team Bowl ready!

We always did really well in bowls. Too bad we can't remember how to get to one lately.

I think Cal has every reason not to show up but I'm not ready to bet against them against a defensively challenged T Tech team.

Cal maybe. but I doubt it. I dont think there will be any emotional letdowns. Auburn can still play for a Co Championship

Cardinals and Bishops......no disrespect intended......I expect ND to get an Alter boy ass whippin....might be the answer to the original thread question. I will be interested how soon ND can decide on a coach; you can keep an eye on their recruiting this Spring at Rivals.com. I am looking forward to watching what happends next year.....Do you guys think they need to join a conference? Those Catholic dollars are great and would mean alot to a conference i.e. Big East....that conference needs a spark. Just throwing the idea out.

UCLA. They left in all on the field with that coulda shoulda against USC.


Watch them take Wyoming too lightly and lose outright as 12 points favs in a high scoring affair.


I agree with Winky, VA is ripe to be had.

 

[BaseballGuy]

Boise state.

They are going to get killed!

 

[gijoe]

boston college. could of played on new years day but got smoked last game of year at home and now in small bowl against north carolina at north carolina. qb also out.

 

[Tony Soprano]

Sad to say, but gotta vote for my Tennessee Volunteers.

Look at the last few years......demolished!!!! They just don't seem to care about the bowl game.

Hoping for better this year...but not counting on it!!!

Uconn WILL show up, but you'll just call me biased....

 

[sherman]

and in no way am i saying bet on them (or against them) just that it's a gurantee they will show up....this team plays hard and takes nothing for granted....

Oklahoma

When the defense realizes they will have to stop 5 offensive weapons instead of stopping their usual "one", anticipated frustration will cause them to be a no-show from the get-go.
:raining:

If they don't, Toledo will run for 300+ yards on them. Heck they may anyway.

While I'm not necessarily liking these sides as plays..

I agree with Winky and Ppeter, UVa has been on the slide ever since losing the cupcake schedule around the same time of losing their dominant DE midseason..can Groh circle the wagons?

Tennessee though should be motivated after no-show vs Clemson in last year's Peach, yet have been fading ever since Ainge injury, losing to ND, barely escaping Vandy and Ky, then only getting guts up to climb back partially for a bit in revenger to Aubie..ripe for being blowout.

ND has been getting waxed in bowls for over a decade now, and now have no HC to hold them accountable for a possible no-show here.

Coloradno-O..do they care enough to redeem Big-12 pants-dropping with win-by-margin?

BC and NC..were heading in opposite directions late this fall.

LSU..BCS Champ to 9-2 team, has been winning short all year.

UGa..for an hyped coach with top program, Richt's squads can be very life and death when not coming to play physical for the entire duration, or when his passing game is jammed well by quality DB play.

UCLA..too chalky despite pedigree edge?

Now Pitt and Utah both meet with lame duck coaches.
