Roady's Humanitarian Bowl

12/30/09 at 4:30 PM EST

Initial Thoughts: You know, I'm all for equality and giving smaller conferences their due...but there is absolutely no way anyone who is not directly connected to one of these schools gives a damn about this game.
Most Awesome Player: Freddie Barnes, Bowling Green WR (138 receptions for 1,551 yards and 16 touchdowns)
Most Awesome Sponsor: The Idaho Lottery.

 

Wooh!

The Line: Bowling Green -1
Accuscore says: Bowling Green 36.1, Idaho 34.9
ESPN says: Bowling Green 38, Idaho 35
Who you should be rooting for: I honestly have no rooting interest in this game at all.  I'm pretty sure I have only something like two confidence points riding on this game anyway.

 

 

 

Pacific Life Holiday Bowl

12/30/09 at 8:00 PM EST

San Diego, California

Initial Thoughts: Boy am I glad I don't have to spell Ndamukong Suh very often.
Most Awesome Player: Suh, Nebraska DT (82 tackles, 23 tackles for loss, 12 sacks, 10 passes defended, 1 interception, 26 QB hurries)
Most Awesome Sponsor: The Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation.  No, really.

 

The Line: Nebraska -1
Accuscore says: Nebraska 22.4, Arizona 21.1
ESPN says: Arizona 14, Nebraska 10
Who you should be rooting for: Arizona.  Pac-10 pride!  This really should be a fun game though, to see how Arizona's spread works against Suh and the Nebraska defensive line.
