For all of you who picked winners to bowl games, what's your record so far?



If Oregon State beats the Irish tonight (which they're halfway to doing) I'll be 7-3... my three losses were Fresno beating Virginia, UCLA losing to Wyo and Memphis getting beat... sad days but I'm still in good shape so far... so lets hear yours

I started out 4-1 and fell flat on my face as I'm now 5-5. Luckily, nobody else in my group is doing well either, as the guy in first place is only at 6-4.

8-4 . . . not bad.

That's all I have to say is, judging from last night's Ohio State/Oklahoma State game, if Oklahoma State is the same team Oklahoma gave up 35 points to, Oklahoma is in trouble against USC. I was completely unimpressed with the Big 12's No. 5 team.

Well, UCLA couldn't beat Wyoming and USC had all they could handle with them. These minor bowls are so hard to predict because it's hard to tell what team will show up. Obviously OKState didn't show up last night.

It didn't help that their QB gifted Ohio State 10 points in the first quarter through two bad turnovers (especially the fumble -- I felt bad for him).

he's bad. If you saw the OU game then you saw him play out of his mind. Mostly it was him throwing the ball as far as he could and his receivers going up and making catches. This was all done without Antonio Perkins in the OU defensive backfield I might add. That game was a fluke. OU obviously outclassed OSU but a few really big plays made the game tight. It's quite similar to the USC UCLA game in that respect. Anyone that watched either game knew who was the much better team yet each game came down to the final possession.

The bitch of it is, we're doing the espn thing at work and we decided to use the points system they have, where you assign a certain amount of points (1-28 ) to to each game and most points wins. I gave Cal/TT 28 points.
