Bowled Over 2019: Complete College Bowl Predictions

Indiana…Maybe a tie here with Sparty.  Don’t want to go too crazy.  8-4 before the bowl.  Never seen 9 wins in my lifetime. I don’t rule it out.  Coach Allen will get us there.      I BELIEVE!

I wrote the above in the speaktherights.com College Football Preview back in August.  Obviously I was expecting more from Michigan State.

The Hoosiers had a special season and I never doubted they would.

I must say it was a dream come true to share a little Hoosier magic with this guy, Adam Disque.  Though a loss, the Michigan game was good times.  We also saw the Northwestern game together, along with Andrew and Susan Evertts and my brother-in-law Stevarino.

Merry Christmas, Bedford Falls!

I took a hiatus after week 7 of the College Football season.  But I can’t let the bowl games get away from us.

The Bowl Games, let’s pick’em.

Bahamas Bowl:  Charlotte beats Buffalo.  Did I just type Charlotte and Buffalo about a football game?  Gads, maybe there really are too many bowls.  Go 49ers!

Frisco Bowl:  Utah State beats Kent State.  I will be for the boys from Kent.

New Mexico Bowl:  San Diego State beats Central Michigan in a close one.

Cure Bowl:  Liberty beats Georgia Southern.  No cure for this bowl.

Boca Bowl:  SMU beats Florida Atlantic in their backyard.  Boca Burger, any one?

Cameillia Bowl:  FIU beats Arkansas State.

Las Vegas Bowl:  Boise State beats Washington.  Oh how the mighty have fallen.  At least they’ll stay at a cool place.

New Orleans Bowl:  The curfew bowl of the east. App State beats UAB.

Gasparilia Bowl:  Marshall beats UCF.  Can’t pick against the Herd!

Hawaii Bowl:  Hawaii beats BYU and they all go surfing on the North Shore later.

Independence Bowl:  LA Tech beats Miami.  The boys from Ruston are 70 miles away on I-20 and want some respect.

Quick Lane Bowl:  Free oil change for one lucky section.   Pitt beats Eastern Michigan.  But how refreshing that Eastern Michigan doesn’t have ten losses!

Military Bowl:  North Carolina beats Temple.  Mack Brown is back home.

Pinstripe Bowl:  Hopefully neither coach blows off about not being a baseball fan.  Wake bests Michigan State.

Texas Bowl:  OK State beats Texas A&M cos Mike Gundy is a man!  He’s 50!

Holiday Bowl:  USC beats Iowa.  Glad USC is holding on to Coach Helton.  Great Bowl game.  Hope Iowa wins.

Cheez-it Bowl:  Air Force beats Washington State.  Sword is kind of rusty this year.

Camping World Bowl: Notre Dame beats Iowa State.  Irish tickets advertised on facebook this year was the worst thing I saw in football with the exception of Mason Rudolph cheating death on a couple occasions.

Cotton Bowl:  Memphis beats Penn State.  Want to see a fired up bunch!  Tigers will be and will back it up.  Never seen Memphis on such a large stage.

Peach Bowl CFP:  LSU beats Oklahoma.  Geaux Tigers!

Fiesta Bowl CFP:  Clemson beats Ohio State.  Trevor Lawrence will carve this bunch up and make it look easy.

SERVPRO Bowl:  WKU beats Western Michigan.  The Hilltoppers have had a good season.

Music City Bowl:  Louisville beats Mississippi State.  Cards finish their own dream season.

Red Box Bowl:  Cal beats Illinois.  Red Box Bowl…otherwise known as bowl working on its tenth name change.

Orange Bowl:  Florida beats UVA.  The SEC is too much.

Belk Bowl:  Hope no one gets caught shoplifting this year during the shopping spree.  Virginia Tech beats Kentucky.  Bud Foster will finally contain the UK QB and Coach Foster rides off in the sunset.

Sun Bowl:  Arizona State beats Florida State.

Liberty Bowl:  Kansas State beats Navy.  Though I will be for the Middies.

Arizona Bowl:  Wyoming beats Georgia State.  Wow.  What a match up!

Alamo Bowl:  Utah beats Texas.  How much burnt orange there after a sub-par season?

Citrus Bowl:  Bama beats Michigan.  The Tide could line Tim Petty behind center and win this game if he had any eligibility.  Shea Patterson relives what it felt like to get hit by Tide safety.

Outback Bowl:  Auburn beats Minnesota.  Minnesota is gonna be Minnie Pearl, just proud to be there.  Auburn just won the Iron Bowl and may be unstoppable.

Rose Bowl:  Oregon beats Swissconsin.  The last team I want to see on that beautiful field is the Badgers. Go Ducks Go!  Quack on!

Sugar Bowl:  Georgia beats Baylor.  No I don’t have that much SEC love in me.  I just think Jake Fromm will have a monster game.

Birmingham Bowl:  Cincinnati beats Boston College.

Gator Bowl:  Indiana beats Tennessee.  Ironic.  If memory serves, and it usually does, Indiana’s Peach Bowl loss to the Vols was on January 2, 1988.  These two meet up again on January 2, 2020.  We don’t have AT or Ernie Jones or Van Waiters.  Feed Stevie!

Idaho Potato Bowl:  Nevada beats Ohio.

Armed Forces Bowl:  Southern Miss beats Tulane.  Good times for the Golden Eagles.

Lending Tree Bowl:  Miami Ohio over Louisiana Lafayette.  Did I just type that?  Lending Tree or Leaning Tree?

CFP Champ: Clemson  beats LSU.  Not sure what made me type that.  Never thought it before right now.  Clemson is well rested.  They didn’t have much resistance in the ACC this year.  They didn’t show up to play Carolina.  Clemson Tigers beat the LSU Tigers.

Enjoy the bowl games everyone.  I hope your team wins, unless you root for the Badgers.
