Nittany Bowls Too

[NittanyLions94]

First crack at the bowl season, going with:

Purdue -8

1 unit

[NittanyLions94]

May as well play some more. I really can't get in to the bowl games any more. I barely watched the PSU game even, and have only seen bits and pieces of others. The sooner they do away with this garbage system the better.


Fresno/GT Un 54

Indiana +180

Clemson/Auburn Un. 46

Kentucky -7

1 unit each

[NittanyLions94]

One more:

Clemson -2

2 units

Auburn putting in a new spread offense, not much time to get it ready to go, I'll take Clemson and my two favorite RBs to watch.

WOW....i thought i was the only guy who felt that way....i haven't watched a lick of anything except for the 2H of the PSU game. These games are just ****. Way too many crappy conference teams playing in these things, as well. I don't need to see 5 CUSA teams in bowl games. 64 of the 119 teams make a bowl game. ....i used to never miss a game back in the day when they actually had good matchups between mostly power conference teams. The addition of so many 2nd tier conference **** teams has just ruined the bowls (not to mention sending a bunch of 6-6 teams)

That's how I feel. It used to mean something to "beat a bowl team" during the regular season. Now it just means you beat a .500 team, who gives a ****!? If you are losing to .500 or below teams, you probably suck badly, and if you beat a 6-6 team and you're proud of it, your team probably sucks just as badly! But I guess this bowl set up lets the Big East fans get all warm and fuzzy when they beat the MWC 3rd place team and the C-USA 6th place team while the Big 10 loses to the SEC

GL Nitts, I watch most of these games but I'm not enthralled (sp?) by any of them.

[NittanyLions94]

Thanks Cuse. I may have a rough one tonight, and I'm leaving in about an hour or so, so I'll add tomorrow's plays in this post as I play them. GL to all tomorrow:

Mich/Florida Ov 59.5

3 units

Taco Tech -6

Arkansas +3

Tennessee -1.5

Illinois +14 -120

1 unit each

Illinois +400

Half unit

[NittanyLions94]

USC/Ill Un. 49

1 unit

[NittanyLions94]

Well, I'll keep tossin' out bowl fades to you guys so I'm atleast contributing SOMETHING besides making fun of conference affiliation around here:

WVU +8

2 units


Oklahoma is not what the media has made them out to be. Bradford and his boys diced a sub-par Mizzou D on national TV, and WVU comes in off a bad loss so the line is inflated, I'll take the value.

nitts- GL!....do you like Gladiator movies?

[cavorca12]

Glad to see there are a few others! GL Nit!

I'm confused by this line. I really feel like Kansas is the much better team in this game, and they're getting 3 points? Kansas will spread out the Hokie defense and force them to cover from sideline to sideline, which could cause problems as long as Reesing is given time. I don't think Kansas will be starstruck like they were in the Mizzou game, their first time on the big stage. They had a slow start in that one due to nerves, but once they settled in they looked like the Kansas we had seen all season. I look for them to be ready to go in this one and take it SU:


Kansas +3.5

2 units

Kansas +140

1 unit
