Personally, I disagree with quite a few of these favorites. I like BYU over Arizona, Notre Dame over Hawaii, West Virginia over North Carolina, N.C. State over Rutgers, Maryland over Nevada, Pittsburgh over Oregon State, and Clemson over a Nebraska team with no defense. I think two favorites are laughable- NO WAY does Georgia Tech beat LSU or does Cincinnati beat Virginia Tech. A couple of the lines are too big- Missouri should beat Northwestern, but 14.5 is too big a spread, also Texas should beat Ohio State, but this game shouldn't have a double-digit line of 10. Boise State should kill TCU, yet the line here is but 1.

There are now TOO MANY bowls! We have such riveting matchups as Western Michigan-Rice, Northern Illinois-Louisiana Tech, Florida Atlantic-Central Michigan, and UConn-Buffalo that I'm sure the nation is on pins and needles for.xrolleyesx

I think Texas Tech-Ole Miss and Georgia-Michigan State will be huge blowouts (winners listed first).

Georgia Tech has a good shot to beat LSU. LSU has questions at QB and they haven't been consistent on defense since the start of the season.

Have you seen GT the last month since they got healthy? They rolled Miami and UGA with about 900 yds rushing combined. LSU has a weak QB, and their defense has been average at best this year, and if they don't come prepared they're going to get waxed.

I geuss I'm falling in love with the LSU name...plus, it is like a home game for GT an the Georgia Dome. Maybe GT can win after all, but I'm still picking LSU in this one.

I'd jump on BYU actually getting points against Arizona and Cal covering the 7.5 against Miami in a game played in Berkeley. I also like Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech, Iowa, Connecticut and Tulsa on those lines.

Don't be so sure about the.Cincinnati game. Not saying they will win but their problem is they don't have the name recognition for football. They've only lost twice this year (Oklahoma and UConn). They have also beaten Pitt, at West Virginia and South Florida and are on a 6 game winning streak.

Tech has lost 4 games to ECU, BC, Fl St, and Miami. They have beaten BC and Maryland as their ranked wins.

Neither team is great but no reason why Cincy can't beat Tech.

Cincy's played good ball this season. Plus their QB has played with a broken arm.

Not to mention when Uconn beat them, Uconn was good. I'm pretty sure Uconn season got screwed up because their starting QB broke his foot.

LSU let Mississippi state score points more than once this year. That is horrible defense.

Boise hasn't seen a defense like the Frogs' D xnonox

BSU should beat TCU, but they aren't going to kill them. I think UGA pretty much expposed the WAC in the Bowl game last year.

Tech's offense is rolling. The long preparation period before the bowl game will actually benefit PJ more than Miles. I like Tech by 14, and I'm not kidding.

You were saying? :D

I guess they came prepared.
