[GoBigOrange86]

Mizzou, Okie State, and Texas Tech win in my opinion.

 

[TXA&M07]

and the rest lose?

 

[droski]

luck is out for the furd. unfortunetly that means oklahoma rolls.

 

[SGMVols]

A&M could put 40 on UGA.

 

[TXA&M07]

I like our chances against Jawja better than against A-barn. I'll admit that for sure.

 

[GoBigOrange86]

and the rest lose?

Yeah.

Care to expand on your thoughts on the Holiday, Independence, and Insight bowls then?

Nebraska has a stellar defense and a sub-par (very) offense. AZ's defense isn't too shabby either, and they have an okay offense. I think Arizona will win a tight game when they manage to finally break open a big play.

TAMU and UGA both have had no problems scoring against sub-par defenses, and both teams are not known for their D. Honestly, this one could go either way. It's going to be a shootout, but I think Georgia wins late.

Insight Bowl was just a guess, really. I might change my mind later. Neither team is very good on offense.

Oklahoma will dismember Stanford.

 

[tvolsfan]

I'm interested to see how Oklahoma stops the run. I'd guess they do a great job.

The Texas and Insight Bowls are proof positive there are too many bowls. If you aren't a student, alum, or parent of a player on one of the participating teams and you watch either of those games, you should be institutionalized.

Ask Stoolwater State.

You know, I often fantasize about a day when college football is so down that the bowls are forced to take 5-7 teams to fill their slots. Would be a nice wakeup call.

Absolutely true...

 

[TXA&M07]

Fair enough. I submit to you the following in rebutal.

Nebraska's D should hold Zona long enough for them to win. They can manage a game as was evident in their performance against t.u.

We should handle Jawja on Offense. As "touch and go" as our Defense has been, I still think we can hold them and restrict their run game. Inspired football is good for the Ags, and while the Georgia ship appears to be losing deck hands, our boys are looking for 2010 preseason hype already.

and lastly I cant remember the last time ISU was in a bowl, and I'll admit I know nothing of Minnesota football, BUT, I think ISU will bring the house and play their best game of the year.

 

[droski]

Oklahoma will dismember Stanford.

yup. their backup qb is as bad as any qb in the country and luck isn't going to start (at this point). and their defense already is garbage.

 

[TXA&M07]

So Stoops might redeem himself a little after a craptastic season? It just seems odd that he has to face a team that's trying to become an upper tier team in their conference, the same year he has struggled. It reeks of Boise State to me. I know that Stanford and the Broncos are two diffrent teams, but I cant help but wonder if history is due to repeat itself.

 

[droski]

i think stanford wins if luck is healthy, but they are a very mediocre (bordering on lousy) team with pritchard at qb.
