Bollocks' Bowl Card

[BigBollocks]

Florida -10 (I locked it in early, but wish I had it even earlier) I don't think the first two games were flukes and then Michigan picked up the pace, I just think the entire Big Ten flat out sucks and made them look better after losing to App State and Oregon by 30. Florida wipes them off the field.

LSU -4 LSU too fast defensively, playing practically a home game for the national championship.

Georgia -8 THIS IS BY FAR MY FAVORITE PLAY OF THE BOWL SEASON. Georgia will run the ball at will. Look for Hawaii to hit some big plays on the Georgia secondary, but not near enough for a win. Look for a 21-28 point UGA win here.

Central Florida 1st Half -130 I think UCF wins outright in the end obviously, but with a solid 1st half team playing a perennial closer in MSU, this is the kind of spot to play the first half line. I think this will be very similar to MSU-Arkansas, where MSU sells out on the run vs. Smith only to have Israel hit some big plays up top. Look for a solid touchdown victory by UCF.


May add USC, may not. Tennessee is so erratic I can't play on or against them. I was leaning towards West Virginia +8 for awhile, but will most likely wind up laying off that one as well. GL to everyone and lets drill 'em to start the New Year!

I don't know about Georgia. I relly think Hawaii has a very good shot to win the game outright, but I agree that potentially Georgia could blow them out.

LSU, no idea. I think there is a pretty big edge to OSU in coaching, but I don't dispute the speed and homefield edge that LSU has in this matchup. All things being equal, if this game was played in Baton Rouge, you are looking at LSU probably -7.5 to -9.5 against OSU.

Tennessee i am very intreste in to BB but need more info. So far, 2 big ten teams have played and both have looked relatively weak. MSU played well but turned it over 5 times and somehow managed to lose by only 3. Purdue played horribly and won by 3 but they beat a MAC team so that doesn't really count as an impressive win. Judging by their two performences so far, the Big Ten appears very down this year. Wisconsin played 5 road games. They lost 3 road games in the B-10 (Illinois, PSU, & OSU....the lattter two by 20+ pts). They won @ Minnesota by 7 and were life and death against UNLV winning by 3 after scoring in the final 1:00of play. So they beat two of the 7 or 8 worst teams in college football on the road--and barely at that. At home, they beat a non-bowl team in Washington State, a non-bowl team in Iowa by 3, a barely qualified bowl team in MSU by 3, a barely qualified bowl team in Indiana (who is one of the weaker road teams in the country) and a Michigan team who was very unmotivated to play that game.

Tennessee, on the other hand, has been eratic all year. They've looked very sharp some weeks (Georgia, So. Miss, Arkansas State, & Kentucky) and very bad in other weeks (Cal, Florida, Alabama, & Vanderbilt).

Right now, the line is at the point where it's Tennessee or nothing at all. I think the SEC is wholly superior to the Big Ten and if anyone watched the UW/Arkansas game from last year, the Razorbacks annihilated Wisconsin in everything except the scoreboard. I don't think that will happen again.... Tenn features a pretty strong QB in Ainge unlike Arkansas who had Mustain/Dick who were very weak.

Slight lean to Tenn at -2 or less.....
