I mean it’s someone to root against which is better than most of these bowl games that I have zero interest in. Also, it’s something to talk about with coworkers and friends who enjoy college football and may like state or osu.

If you only watch them when we're playing them then I guess we can disregard any analysis you give about the game against them in the future because you wouldn't know shit about them or how they play. I bet there is a lot of that on here which is how we get so many foolish predictions all the time.

Staee.  My boss (MSU grad) is on record as rooting for S.Carolina. I got my Christmas present already so I hope he wakes up with a nice turd in his coffee.

I like how the deeper you get into bowl season, the teams get better and better.

I hate how the deeper you get into bowl season, the teams get better and better... and it's a reminder that the season is coming to an end.

has gone down the shitter and have lost the last 4 games with some high confidence points involved.  I don't know what I was thinking picking Missouri or Virginia.  Those teams were shit

i will root for my old classmate mike, but his defensive coordinator is doing a 'durkin', meaning he has left or is in the process of leaving and joining ohio (YTO).  mork will have had time to game plan a ton for the different WSU looks and you have to give mork credit, he's a very good game planner.  

all that to say, go cougs, beat state, but i have somewhat low expectations.  i would add that i have been to a few holiday bowls and year-in, year-out they have some fo the very best games.

Blockbuster Bowl-->Carquest Bowl--->MicroPC Bowl---->MicroPC.com Bowl--->Visit Florida Tangerine Bowl--->Mazda Tangerine Bowl--->Champs Sports Bowl---->Russell Athletic Bowl--->Camping World Bowl

It only had Tangerine in it from 2001-2003.

The current Citrus Bowl was the Tangerine Bowl from 1947-1982.

The Tangerine Bowl Stadium is now the Camping World Stadium. 

Got it?

Is it a realistic prospect? Do they still make guys who're steady and stoic enough to just execute with ruthless efficiency for 15-20 plays..it seems like nowadays you're better off going for chunk plays to minimize the number of opportunities for your team to make mental errors.
