Mexi,

There are rarely home teams when it comes to bowl games, so that theory is MOOT . As for the first two games, coming up on the 18th and 19th.......

Colorado State over North Texas by 10..........18th.

Marshall over East Carolina by 3....................19th.

Even though there are rarely games played on a teams HOME field for bowl games, there is still always a designated HOME team and VISITING team. My picks remain the same HOME throughout.

The game is now in overtime and Marshall(the team I selected to win just scored a touchdown to go up 58-51. It is now East Carolina's turn to try from 25 yards. This game could set records, if it already hasn't by the time overtime finishes.......


It is fun to listen to games like this......

My picks are fcuking shite. We should shut this thread down at this point in time.

Utah 10
USC 6


Georgia Tech 24
Stanford 14

Stanford was stopped 3 times when they had a 1st and goal inside the FIVE fcuking yard line.


I have Alabama to beat Iowa State in tonight's game. So, if you were smart, you should take Iowa State.
