This should come as no surprise. Their coach is Ruffin McNeill.

Look upon Ruffin McNeill’s genius ye mighty and tremble.

Caribou- I’m starting to think picking the best coach is the most effective bowl handicapping method, at least when there is a decided advantage. IMO Arizona-Nevada was the only close coaching matchup thus far. Aside from that game, I believe the better coach has won every game

So far, that is a sound approach. I lean also with who has motivation to win the bowl game. that’s where I got burned last nite, didnt think UCF would have the motivation to show-up. They did and they took control early on and never looked back.

Alabama spread would usually be an obvious play for me, but I’m hesitant to bet against Kelly

As for the Bama game, the line is UA -10, and if I’m a ND fan, I’d grab those points now. Line could come down a little (-8, maybe a TD) as we move closer to the game. This Bama team is not the same as last year’s team, DEF is definitely not the same. ND believes they can win, and I wouldnt go against that. There something to be said about winning close games and they have down that all year.

My prediction: Bama 24-17

If it gets to a TD, I’m taking Bama, but if it stays where it’s at, I’m not touching it.

Anyone got a feel for the UDub/BSU game this afternoon? Friend is a big Dawg fan, he feels they should keep it close, maybe an outright win. UW has been awful away from home and you wonder how the Apple Cup loss affects them.

I am not familiar with this man but after spending two quarters with him I wish him harm.

ECU punted from the 50, 4th and 2 down 14 points in a meaningless game. Jackasses. like myself I assume everyone who picked ECU never watched them play.

In a vacuum, I’d have no problem with this decision. However, their defensive ineptitude should’ve influenced them into going for the first down
