This game is one I'll likely stay away from, not sure yet. I just don't have a good read on how I think this will go. I can see ND hammering them because they have more talent, I can see hawaii staying close because ND just wants the season over, especially after how well it started, I can see it going over because neither team has a great defense, I can see it going under because neither team has a great offense. Just not sure right now.

ND can run for 300+ on the Bows, they should win that game by 20+ pts.
Honestly, they could play Like the midshipmen and not bother passing the ball.
I don't think Charlie can find a way to lose this one.

I know that this is an insignificant bowl, but anyone would be out of their mind if they didn't take USF any # over Memphis. I have a thread about this, take a look.

If the Irish could run, they would be in a far better bowl.

I hear what you're sayin'. Amazes me how bad ND is at running the ball at times. I just think that Bow D line is softer than SD St. or 'Cuse, which is pretty bad. Plenty of practice time for the Irirsh to make a statement and there is no coaching change hanging over their heads for a distraction. I wouldn't be surprised if the Bows lose a couple starters due to academics before game time either.

You know the Irish as well as anyone on here. I usually fade the the Irish come bowl time (didn't in the last Sugar Bowl and paid the price) and most of the time during the year. Differen't feeling this time.

One of the most fun games to watch if you like offense will be Missouri vs Northwestern. That game should put up over 70 without too much trouble. I'll be on Mizzou there at anything under -10. BYU/Arizona is a good early bowl game that I'll be sure to watch.

Be careful playing this Missouri team. They have pretty much mailed it in after losing at home to Okie Lite.

Be careful with all that chalk. You're essentially betting three teams that will all likely be unhappy with where they are and who they're playing. Texas, Alabama and USC probably all feel like they should be in the National Championship game. I think at least one of these teams lose straight up, and I'm guessing that team is Texas. Alabama and USC both are far more talented than their opponents, but the motivational edge might be enough for one of Utah or Penn St to cover.

I know you love Boise, but I can't see them beating TCU more often than not.
Very well put. No doubt you have monitored Texas' bowl history.
