More College Bowl Picks!

Off to a rough start, going just 2-4 to start the bowl season. I have a lot of making up to do apparently to get a respectable record. Hopefully, since we're getting into more teams i know and have seen play, i can do a little better. This will cover the next round of games, through Sunday.

Central Michigan +8 over Purdue
In another matchup of two teams that faced off in the regular season, i like the Chippewa's to avenge their loss to Purdue early in the season. Ask UCLA how hard it is to beat a team twice in the same year...

Texas -2.5 over ASU
ASU beat absolutely no one this year, and lost to the only two good teams they played (USC and Oregon before Dixon was hurt). Their might be somewhat of a letdown for the Sun Devils because they thought they might make a BCS game, but i think their coach Dennis Erickson will get that out of their system. Still, i like Texas in this game.

Boston College -4 over Michigan St.
Let's see, a team who's notorious for collapsing down the stretch against a team with arguably the most NFL-ready qb in college football? I like the qb, and i think BC has something to prove.

TCU -4.5 over Houston
Ok, i'll admit i know absolutely nothing about either of these teams...

Maryland +5.5 over Oregon St.
This game was a hard one to pick. I like the way Oregon St. played at the end of the year, but i also like Terrapin's coach Ralph Friedgen's ability to gameplan with a month to do it. In the end, i still with a team who has been in more big games the last few years, Maryland.

UCONN +3 over Wake Forest
The fact that this game is in North Carolina scares me, as it's only about 2 hours from Wake's campus. I do like the way the Huskie's played this year though, so i'll go with them.

Central Florida -3 over Mississippi St.
It would be a good story for Mississippi St. to win this game, as they've had a good year and have a great coach. I don't think they will be able to pull this one out though.

Penn St. -5.5 over Texas A&M
This is one of the rare occasions this bowl season you'll see me pick a Big Ten team, cause i think they're losing most of their games. Like Penn St. here though, and haven't been impressed with A&M when i've seen them play this year.

Colorado +3.5 over Alabama
Any team that beat Oklahoma and dropped 65 on Nebraska has my vote...
