I'm good with those except I think UCF will beat Georgia and South Carolina will beat FSU

I would agree, there were a couple that I would back and forth with. I think UCF had a better year, but I don't think they would have fared too well in the SEC. UGA is pretty tested right now and has nothing to lose. I like Richt as a coach, and I think he will have them ready.

I also don't see UCF stopping AJ. Green.


I wanted to pick USC over FSU, but I can't. I think USC will still be feeling the effects of their embarrassing loss to Auburn. FSU is pretty fast and has a good balanced attack. It will be interesting to see USC's defense responds.

if OU doesnt beat UCONN please revoke from football all together. Boise state will get their asses kicked. They need to. That is a team that is just as overrated as Notre Dame

UCF isn't SEC material yet but they had a good year and last year wasn't too bad. I think with that momentum they will have a chance. Plus I"m betting UGA will think its an easy lay.

USC will still be feeling that Auburn stomp but they can rally back decently.

Went with the underdog in a few. I don't really believe that UCONN will beat OU, but I hate OU so I'm not picking with them for any reason. Also picked us to beat Northwestern, but Miami just ****ed our focus, so I wouldn't be surprised if we lost. A&M vs. LSU is a toss up to me, but the last 6 games, A&M is playing as good as anyone in the country, so if they keep that streak going, I wouldn't be surprised to see them walk out of Dallas with a win. FSU is probably another underdog pick, but I don't see Spurrier beating them.

A lot of Michigan hate up in here I see. We own the SEC and we'll rack up another one come 1/1.

you think so huh, miss state hung close this year to some very good teams, and played in the hardest division in cfb. They can stop that O of mitchigan ,and lord knows any body can move the ball on them.
Whats the story with your coach, do you even need to be pulling for your team, a loss could set you up better for the next five years you all would be better off with out RR.

 

[joeys01drptp]

Could someone share with me out of all these bowls, which game they think has the most obvious outcome? I'd say boise st vs utah

Yes I think so. Miss St is a decent team and has played good ball this year. I don't think they can stop Robinson though. Especially with a few weeks to rest and get fully healthy, he'll be at 100%. Michigan's D won't stop much I know but I think the offense will make up for it.

As for RRod, I don't know. He's at least showing some improvement with the team, however little. Their offense is I believe #5 in yards and #22 in scoring and they'll only be better next near. If their defense was even average we'd have a 10 win season. I'd rather get back to their traditional style of offense but it'll be interesting to see what they can do. They just need a defense, theirs is embarrassing. Who knows maybe they can convince Harbaugh to come home. He'd turn it around for sure.

 

[Mayo5]

3-0 so far. A good start to picking the bowl games.

 

[Matts00GT]

3 for 3 as well and currently in the 95th percentile on ESPN.

MWM0004 on the confidence rankings bracket.

 

[zerocool]

2-1. Should've known better than to pick Fresno, but ah well.

 

[Matts00GT]

4-0.

 

[Mayo5]

4-0.

I missed on the Southern Miss, I knew I shouldn't have picked them but I figured they would have alot riding for them.
