    Two Very Important Things To Remember

    Here are the two most important things to remember about this, and any bowl season,for that matter. First, the team that wants the win the most will get the win. This is especially true in the smaller meaningless bowls, but also holds true in the bigger bowl games as Oklahoma (1-1), Baylor, Alabama and other teams can tell you.

    Next, teams are going to lose players three different ways. There will be injuries in practices. There will be suspensions due to bad grades, and there will be a bunch of suspensions due to arrests. My guess is at least 10 starters from the various teams will do something stupid and get suspended. This is why it is really too early to start talking about games and lines. IF you wagered this early (and my guess is that NO ONE has done so as of yet), you are jumping the gun. I see a lot of people stating what they thing=k the best lines are and all of that is fine, but it is really useless this early. When you were making your determinations as to whom to play, how many of you considered that USC would fire 4 of their assistant coaches? What about the assistant coaches who are staying for the bowl game but leaving for head coaching jobs the day after the bowl game is over. Do you think that their particular bowl game is going to be #1 on their minds? Think it out people.

    You can't include Michigan State. Alabama is in the hunt for a national title. An edge in motivation in the BCS Playoffs is non-existent. It comes down to preparation, coaching, and sheer talent. As for those other teams you mentioned, it's possible, sure.

    You'll never get an answer from him about any teams winning. Unless any of those teams are at least -350 the crickets will continue to chirp on this one.

    The second paragraph of his post is insightful and offers advice worth heeding.

    i was just seeing if he was going to say all the larger underdogs are less motivated. motivation isnt something that you can measure so its pretty meaningless. even if you know the team doesnt care about winning that doesnt mean they dont care about their own individual performance and not being embarrassed/hassled by coaches. ive played on teams where we werent going to make the playoffs and winning didnt matter but most ppl were still nervous before games because they didnt want to play badly.

    Speaking of arrests, we have Ohio State All American DT Adolphus Washington leading things off. A big strong All American boy had to try and buy it? He couldn't get for free?

    Nice. One f**ked up gay following another. You two should have a great time together. Both of you are not worth a crap. Neither one of you two chicken s**ts will wager a dime. Any time, any place gays. Bring plenty of money and your health insurance cards in case you are dumb enough to mouth off to me. Killer already knows this. I'v never seen a gay run so much in my life. Talk about being paranoid.

    When you say "wager a dime" you literally mean ten cents though. If tossing out little, silver FDR coins is your thing, have at it. I'm sure you're proud of your popsicle stick collection, and you should be. It takes real big coward to flee from those scary -110 odds and throw the piggy bank at the heavy chalk for a nice, safe return.

    What do you do with all your popsicle sticks? Arts and crafts? Birdhouses? Eating utensils?

    I'm guessing you bundle them together with fishing line, soak them overnight in pickle juice, and then sit on them to test your pain/pleasure threshold... which would explain your perpetually sour disposition here at SBR. You literally have a stick up your ass... lots of them, in fact.

    Say what you will about the OP's personality but he is the only poster in the college football forum whose posts I make a point of reading. I don't always agree with his analysis but I respect his opinion. Can't honestly say the same of any other handicapper on SBR.
