Sun Bowl: Miami vs. Washington State
Heart of Dallas Bowl: Washington vs. Southern Miss
Pinstripe Bowl: Indiana vs. Duke
Independence Bowl: Tulsa vs. Virginia Tech
Foster Farms Bowl: UCLA vs. Nebraska
Here are my picks. Arizona vs. New Mexico (I'll take Arizona in this one.)
BYU vs. Utah (Never in my life did i think i would ever see these two play in Vegas of all places. This came as a shock. And i take Utah in this one.)
Ohio vs. Appalachian State (I had to pick someone.)
San Jose State vs. Georgia State (Who cares?) Arkansas State vs. Louisiana Tech (Underrated bowl game. I'll take the Red Wolves in this one.) Western Kentucky vs. South Florida (Hilltoppers kick a lot of ass this year.)
Akron vs. Utah State (Hard to pick.) Temple vs. Toledo (Temple is a different team under Matt Rhule.) Boise State vs. Northern Illinois (Also an underrated G5 bowl game. And i'll take Boise State in this one.)
Georgia Southern vs. Bowling Green (If you think i'm taking a team that lost by 27 damn points to Georgia State, you're crazy.)
Middle Tennessee vs. Western Michigan (I had to pick someone. I'm sorry, but i don't follow C-USA or MAC.) San Diego State vs. Cincinnati (Aztecs looked sharp this year.)
Connecticut vs. Marshall (I don't think Connecticut has what it takes to take down Marshall.) Miami vs. Washington State (Teams can be different with interim coaches.) Washington vs. Southern Miss (I'll take Washington.)
Indiana vs. Duke (Duke has only won one game since the Miami loss. I don't know what happened to them after that.)
Tulsa vs. Virginia Tech (Beamer's last bowl game. I gotta go with Virginia Tech.) UCLA vs. Nebraska (I think UCLA wins this one.)
I'm sorry for what little thoughts i had on these bowl games, but i'm tired and need sleep.
New Mexico Bowl: Arizona vs. New Mexico. A home game for New Mexico and Bob Davie. They won on the smurf turf in Boise, and I think they can take out a Wildcats team that had high hopes this year and floundered.
Las Vegas Bowl: BYU vs. Utah (Holy War in Sin City). Kind of ironic these 2 playing each other in Las Vegas of all places??
Camellia Bowl: Ohio vs. Appalachian State. No idea
Cure Bowl: San Jose State vs. Georgia State. And of Georgia State loses, 2 teams playing in the same bowl will both finish with losing records! If that doesn't say "there's too many bowl games" I don't know what does.
New Orleans Bowl: Arkansas State vs. Louisiana Tech. Could be an exciting game.
