OK, so there are 32 bowls this year if you count the national championship game. I\u2019m thinking in 3 or 4 parts as not to have lead times which are too long.<\/p>\n

\nThat\u2019s too many points for me. NIU can actually run the ball; they\u2019ll lose, but keep it closer than this.<\/p>\n
\nI like the Ducks to upset BYU. I think the MWC is weak this year. Weaker than usual, I mean. Well, actually, I\u2019m not that impressed with the Pac10, either, but I like the Ducks anyway.<\/p>\n
\nWell, if Rice\u2019s starting QB Clement is healthy, they\u2019ll easily cover this number. Unfortunately, it\u2019s not clear that he\u2019s really OK. They say he\u2019ll play, but probably not at 100%. I\u2019ll give the points, though I suspect they might win and not cover. Oh, well, GO OWLS! <\/p>\n
\nA bowl game of considerable geographic confusion. USF isn\u2019t in south Florida, and WTF is east Carolina? Anyway, I think South Florida is probably better.<\/p>\n
\nDespite it being a home game for UNM, I\u2019m going to take the points, on that whole \u201cweak MWC\u201d theory.<\/p>\n
\nI have absolutely no idea whatsoever. It\u2019s not like C-USA was anything exciting this year, either, I mean, heck Rice made it to a bowl almost entirely on within-conference wins. But, just to be consistent, I\u2019ll pick against the MWC. Golden Hurricane!<\/p>\n
\nI think the Warriors cover this one at home. ASU ached this year.<\/p>\n
\nDang, I was definitely going to go with Central, but that\u2019s a boatload of points. Man, that\u2019s ugly. Still, I think Central is actually sort of OK for a weak sister team in one of these early bowls, so I\u2019m going to pick \u2018em.<\/p>\n
\nBleah. Should be a defensive struggle since both of these offenses suck, so that\u2019s too many points.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
