College Bowls- I need some thoughts?

So, every year the school my sister teaches at does a college bowl pool. She pays for 2 plays and I pick em and lose every year!

So, what I need is some thoughts from the sharps here.

It is all bowl games, win only.

Do you have any bowls you are very confident about the winner in?

Do you have any bowls you think the dog has a really good shot in?

Tell me what you think and I will use the suggestions. It usually pays a few hundred and we could sure use the money. I have until December 13th. The thoughts will also give the board and idea of what everyone is thinking. Thanks.

I like
UCLA
Stanford
Ore St

Just think teams like them are fired up to be in a bowl game and the opponents are flat.

Thanks Dr Dexter. I will use those.

I am going to play twice so slam dunks I can put on both are nice then picks for the close games that I may spread on both are good also. I came close last year but I need to win this year.

Here is the deal.

As someone post a team I am locking them in. If I get competing teams I will split them on the two sheets.

Thanks.

fresno st. - Hawaii Bowl
cinci - Belk Bowl
OR St - Alamo
OK St - Heart of Dallas
Georgia - Cap One

Those are my best bets for SU wins.

I will be filling out the exact same sheet next week I will let you know what I have then, however I saw someone say they liked Stanford I would be careful with that the team captains for the Badgers all met with Barry Alveraz and asked him to coach them in the rose bowl instead of letting Bret Bilema coach and he said he would be honored to do so I. Bilema 0-2 in Rose Bowls while Barry Alveraz is 3-0 I promise you this Barry will not get out coached like Bilema seemed to in the big games regardless of the outcome I dont think this is a slam dunk either way it will be for less than 7 points on my sheet. Are you doing the confidence sheet as well or just picking everything SU? My contest you rank each selection 1-35 1 being least confident and 35 being most confident.




The evidence we have found has led us to the conclusion that the negative image of gamblers, of speculators and of gambling is due to prejudice, to the distorted image heavily promoted by some powerful groups who, however, have not had much evidence to support their views.

BUMP!

Trying to get some of you weekend cappers to take a peek and throw me a few winners.

If I do win, I will buy a subscription to some kind of college hoops information and share/use it on here.
