NEW YEARS BOWL GAMES

Rose Bowl: USC lethargic and in love with themselves; surf bums with talent they've never used. I am picking Illinois to not only beat the spread, but win the game outright. BTW the Rose Bowl committee, the white old men running the Rose Bowl, has thrown their entire franchise into the toilet by picking Illinois, a team nobody anywhere outside of the state if Illinois wants to see. Will have the lowest ratings this oldest of bowl games has ever had. Could be the best game of all the bowls because Illinois is actually very good.

Cotton Bowl: Arkansas vs Mizzou depends on whether Porker super back Darren McFadden plays, which is still a question mark doubtful. If he is playing it's Arkansas. If not go with Mizzou. Very Late Add: McFadden is out. Even Later Add: McFadden played but Mizzou played lots better and slaughtered Arkansas. What SEC?

Armed Forces Bowl: On paper a great game but CAL suspended three of the best players in the USA so barring their re-instatement, Air Force to win. (Players not suspended, just won't start. If they play, CAL should win big) BTW, I was raised in NoCal and the CAL athletic program has been a shambles since the 60s due in large part to black agitator (and professor) Harry Edwards who preaches victimhood to the black players (all your problems are a result of white racism). They just won't play tough against tough teams. Air Force, on the other hand, is ready to trash what they regard as left wing draft dodgers and Berkeley/Frisco hippie trash. CAL WON LATE

Sun Bowl: Oregon hasn't been remotely the same since Dixon, their truly great qb, went down with injury. South Florida to win outright. OREGON SHOWED US ALL HOW GOOD THEY USED TO BE BY TOTALLY TRASHING SOUTH FLORIDA. WE ALL MISSED WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A KILLER BCS CHAMPIONSHIP GAME HAD THEIR SUPER STAR DIXON NOT GONE DOWN FOREVER.

Chick-fil-A Bowl: Clemson (9-3) vs. Auburn (8-4)---actually an interesting matchup. Auburn in an upset. A DULL GAME WON BY AUBURN IN OT.

Capital One Bowl: super slow Michigan (8-4) vs. super fast Florida (9-3). As you can tell, I don't think much of the Big Ten. Florida.

Sugar Bowl: everybody's sentimental favorite Hawaii (12-0) vs. Georgia (10-2). Hawaii, which is much tougher than people think. Their qb, Colt Brennan, is the real deal. In fact, he may be a realer deal than anybody knows. He can throw side arm, overhead, three quarters, on the run left or right, and and.......

Fiesta Bowl: West Virginia (10-2) vs. Oklahoma (11-2). An interesting matchup only on paper. West Virginia without their coach may not even show up for long. Oklahoma to win outright.

BCS Championship: Another slow Big Ten team bites the dust to a not all that good LSU. LSU

None of the other games interest me. Go Pats.
