    Cotton Bowl

    Monday, January 1, 2007

    NEBRASKA (9-4) at AUBURN (10-2)

    Both teams are averaging nearly 8+ yards per pass play and are equal in the running game. Nebraska's pass defense is quite weak and I think Auburn will exploit that all afternoon. I like the Tigers in this one.

    This is a toughie to pick. I'm probably going to avoid it, but Auburn -1.5 is what I like. GL!

    I like Auburn here too. Their defense flys around the field. Much quicker than Nebraska but what that means this bowl season? Nothing. Underdogs are killing me this year..

    I took Cornhuskers +1.5 earlier in the week thinking it would've moved the other way . . . NEB +1.5
    Happy New Year everybody!

    Thats the line I got on Nebraska. Sucks to lose by a half. But I did nail the UNDER on this game. I was a little worried about that in the 1st half where 28 points were scored. They only scored 3 in the 2nd half. I will take the split.

    I pushed, so not that worried about it, but this is another game the wrong team won.

    I don't know about that Razz. Nebraska played really well. I am very impressed with Callahan and his play calling. I thought their game plan was right on time. I knew Auburn's defense could present some problems with their speed and of course having one of the best defensive coor.'s in college football, well it played out pretty much how I figured it would. Now, Auburn's offense really needs some help I will give you that but to say the better team lost, I can't say I agree with that. Maybe Nebraska was better today as I didn't watch every play but I think overall Auburn is the better team...
