Big Day for Bowling
New Year’s Day brings the veritable feast of college football games with some of the more traditional matches on the menu.
Again it is past midnight here in Australia and only a short time before some of the games kick off so here we go with the picks.
TicketCity Bowl
Northwestern vs. Texas Tech
The first incarnation of this new bowl will see Northwestern slip by Texas Tech 33-28.
Outback Bowl
Florida vs. Penn State
Marquee match up of once prominent programmes. I will have to go with the Gators in this one 24-16.
Capital One Bowl
Alabama (15) vs. Michigan State (7)
The Tide is a dangerous outfit and will be looking for a positive end to a less than expected season. Alabama 31-20.
Gator Bowl
Mississippi State (21) vs. Michigan
Another Big Ten/SEC game, the SEC comes out on top again Mississippi State 27-24.
Rose Bowl
Wisconsin (4) vs. TCU (3)
Could have easily been for all the marbles. Wisconsin’s ground and pound attack will finally give TCU a loss by 21-13.
Fiesta Bowl
UConn (25) vs. Oklahoma (9)
Sooners want to leave a lasting impression to end the season, UConn could surprise. But will by out muscled by 38-17.
Happy New Year all and enjoy the action.
