Bowl Projections Thread

Well you know what Kevin Garnett once said.......

If they get lucky and play CMU, they may be ok in the bowl, but if they play anyone with a good offense, it could get ugly.

Don't know who CMU is, but they've already played pretty well against two of their possible CCG opponents (with cfb showing us that title game rematches are pretty damn tough for the original winners) in the 4th offense in the country in Ohio State and the 9th offense in the country in Michigan. PSU has the 28th offense in the country, for comparison.

Technically you're right, it could get ugly, but they could also win 70-0.

Wisconsin's best win is quite a bit better than our best win.

As an addendum, according to Sagarin, our best win is over a team that is not yet bowl-eligible....

Are we sure of that though? Are we sure our best win isn't over potential MWC champion Wyoming? Or over 8-3 Minnesota?

At least we aren't saying Oregon anymore.

Sorry, meant western Michigan. They are slated as the non-P5 team that will make a major bowl.

That would be a really fun matchup that our fanbase would be extremely excited for.

I think that it will be an upset if we don't end up in Tampa win or lose

 

[BIG ERN]

The highest bowl projection chance is that we play Florida in the Outback Bowl. Of course that can change with this last week and the Conf. Championship games.

I want nothing to do with Washington State to be honest.

PLEASE let us get Florida or LSU!

give me the Gators. I know they beat LSU but man I do not want to see us have to defend their backs. Florida's offense is alot less deadly to us. Both of their defenses are pretty fantastic so we will probably struggle on offense either way, but number 7 and number 5 for the bayou Bengals are more dynamic than any players we have seen this year besides maybe Curtis Samuel
