It's not like I'm a Zoologist

or an anthropologist or something- Here's the tally so far for my Biased Bowl predictions...


POINSETTIA BOWL - Utes v Midshipmen - The Utes won 35 - 32. Perhaps I should have considered Utah's excellent bowl record and their quarterback's abilities - but I didn't -

0 - 1


NEW ORLEANS BOWL - Florida Atlantic vs. Memphis

Owls v Tigers

So I guess that the old burrowing owl is tougher than I thought.

0 - 2



PAPAJOHNS.COM BOWL - Cincinnati Bearcats versus the Golden Eagles of Southern Miss.

The Eagles played tough for their demoted general - but the bearcats proved to be the fiercer foe -

1 - 2


NEW MEXICO BOWL - Lobos of New Mexico verses the Nevada Wolf Pack

Yeah, this game should just be called the New Mexico bowl - oh, wait.

2 - 2



LAS VEGAS BOWL - UCLA vs Brigham Young.

It was a close one (17-16) - but the Cougars were successful.

3 - 2


HAWAII BOWL - East Carolina vs. Boise State

Clearly I had underestimated the prowess of the Pirate -

3 - 3


MOTOR CITY - Central Michigan vs. Purdue

The Big Ten Boilermakers gutted it out - or passed it out - Painter had 546 passing yards and 3 TDs - Purdue wins 51 -48.

4 - 3


HOLIDAY BOWL - Texas Longhorns v ASU Sundevils

as noted below, the Longhorns won, 52 - 34

5 - 3

So, we're over .500 - not too bad - so far...
