College Bowl Plays

i have time to do some college football capping during this holiday break so i might as well try and win some cash. tail if you wish. i actually started last night with the poinsetta bowl and i'll include it for tracking, since i won and all. i'm guessing i'll have a play for about 3/4 of the bowl games. billy rubin and not your type may or may not post plays of their own.



the mythical national championship game (also known as the BCS National Championship) isn't until january 10th. at this point, i can't decide between tits or ass.

in the meantime, known associate will be playing these:

12/26
little caeser’s bowl: FIU vs toledo

both teams rely on their running game and there's a freshman qb on one side. the clock will be ticking.
result: loss. FIU 34 toledo 32

toledo hasnt been to a bowl in 5 years and this is the first ever bowl for FIU so it may take a while for each team to settle down.

insight bowl: missouri vs iowa

not that i like nc state to win or anything.

12/29
military bowl: east carolina vs maryland

early turnovers and penalties didnt help ecu. i'm pretty good fade material right now so...

12/30
armed forces bowl: army vs smu
- SMU -7 for 1 unit
redemption from "the death penalty" continues in the mustangs home stadium.
