College Football Bowl Breakdown

All the bowl games have been selected and I have listed them all here. I have to say there are lot of games that I am excited about and looking forward to watching. There are still way too many bowl games, but over all this should be a fun year. My initial pics are in bold (some games I passed on).

New Mexico
Fresno State vs. Wyoming
Dec. 19 - ESPN
I have seen both these teams and if the team that beat Houston shows up, Wyoming should win

St. Petersburg
UCF
vs. Rutgers
Dec. 19 - ESPN

R+L Carriers New Orleans
Southern Miss vs. Middle Tennessee
Dec. 20- ESPN

MAACO Las Vegas
Oregon State vs. BYU
Dec. 22 - ESPN
This should be a good game, I hope OSU wins, but my money is on BYU

S.D. County Credit Union Poinsettia
Utah vs. Cal
Dec. 23 - ESPN
Another good game, I think Cal bounces back and wins this one

Sheraton Hawaii
Nevada
vs. SMU
Dec. 24 - ESPN

Little Caesars
Marshall vs. Ohio
Dec. 26 - ESPN

Meineke Car Care
Pitt
vs. North Carolina
Dec. 26 - ESPN
I will be watching this one, Pitt should have beaten Cinci, they'll win this one

Emerald
Boston College vs. USC
Dec. 26 - ESPN
I can't see Pete Carrol not getting his team up for this

Gaylord Hotels Music City
Kentucky vs. Clemson
Dec. 27 - ESPN
Clemson looked good in the ACC Championship game and KY won't be able to keep up with them

AdvoCare V100 Independence
Texas A&M vs. Georgia
Dec. 28 - ESPN2
If the good Aggies show up this will be a good game, if not it's a blow out

EagleBank
Army or UCLA vs. Temple
Dec. 29 - ESPN

Champs Sports
Miami
vs. Wisconsin
Dec. 29 - ESPN
I thought Miami would be a lot better this year, a chance to finish well

Roady's Humanitarian
Bowling Green vs. Idaho
Dec. 30 - ESPN

Pacific Life Holiday
Arizona
vs. Nebraska
Dec. 30 - ESPN
This should be a great game, the Holiday Bowl is usually a wild affair

Bell Helicopter Armed Forces
Houston
vs. Air Force
Dec. 31 - ESPN

Brut Sun
Oklahoma vs. Stanford
Dec. 31 - CBS
Another great game on paper, I hope the good OU shows up, but I am not betting on it

Texas
Navy
vs. Missouri
Dec. 31 - ESPN
Fear Navy, they beat Notre Dame and will give Mizzou a great game

Insight
Minnesota
vs. Iowa State
Dec. 31 - NFL Network

Chick-fil-A
Virginia Tech
vs. Tennessee
Dec. 31 - ESPN
Great match up, we'll see how the ACC stacks up against the SEC

Outback
Northwestern vs. Auburn
Jan. 1 - ESPN

Capital One
Penn State vs. LSU
Jan. 1 - ABC
I believe a decent SEC team always beats a good Big 10 team

Konica Minolta Gator
West Virginia
vs. Florida State
Jan. 1 - CBS
Another good match up, sadly WVa will send Bobby out a looser

Rose Bowl Game presented by Citi
Ohio State vs. Oregon
Jan. 1 - ABC
Another Big 10 embarrassment

Allstate Sugar
Florida
vs. Cincinnati
Jan. 1 - FOX
This is a tough call, Cinci will be up for this, hopefully Fla is too

International
South Florida vs. Northern Illinois
Jan. 2 - ESPN2

Papajohns.com
South Carolina vs. UConn
Jan. 2- ESPN

AT&T Cotton
Oklahoma State
vs. Ole Miss
Jan. 2 - FOX
The two preseason darlings that didn't live up to the hype, should be a great game

AutoZone Liberty
Arkansas
vs. East Carolina
Jan. 2 - ESPN

Valero Alamo
Michigan State vs. Texas Tech
Jan. 2 - ESPN

Tostitos Fiesta
Boise State vs. TCU
Jan. 4 - FOX
Awesome match up with two undefeated teams, a must watch

FedEx Orange
Iowa vs. Georgia Tech
Jan. 5 - FOX
The crappy BCS game that no one cares about

GMAC
Central Michigan vs. Troy
Jan. 6 - ESPN

Citi BCS National Championship Game
Texas vs. Alabama
Jan. 7 - ABC
If the Texas offense and defense both show up for the same game, this should be fun; if not, it's a walk for Bama.
