I'm working on my own - very important - Biased Bowl picks for the upcoming bowl season (this year, I'm thinking we're going to throw out the subjective blatherings and focus on tangible, reliable facts - that is, cute/good lookingness).
But, in the meantime, I thought I'd offer a few picks from one of my junior associates - Charlie (speaking of cuteness), my 2 year old godson. He is a big fan of "FOOTBAW!" so I asked his opinion on a few key games -
He has an affinity for Tigers, in general - and he had some very emphatic choices...
EagleBank Bowl
Wake Forest vs. Navy
Charlie’s pick: Navy
magicJack St. Petersburg
Memphis vs. South Florida
Charlie’s pick: Memphis
Pioneer Las Vegas
BYU vs. Arizona
Charlie’s pick: BYU
San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia
Boise State vs. TCU
Charlie’s pick: Boise State
Sheraton Hawaii
Hawaii vs. Notre Dame
Charlie’s pick: Hawaii
Meineke Car Care
West Virginia vs. North Carolina
Charlie’s pick: unc (much to my dismay)

Charlie’s pick: Maryland
Pacific Life Holiday
Oklahoma State vs. Oregon
Charlie’s pick: Ok State
Bell Helicopter Armed Forces
Houston vs. Air Force
Charlie’s pick: Houston
Brut Sun
Oregon State vs. Pittsburgh
Charlie’s pick: “Hamper” - Your guess is as good as mine - I guess he couldn't bring himself to fully endorse the Panthers.
Gaylord Hotels Music City
Boston College vs. Vanderbilt
Charlie’s pick: Boston College - Wait a minute. Is he picking the first team every time?
Insight
Kansas vs. Minnesota
Charlie’s pick: “Joe Pa” - Probably he was repeating "Jayhawks" - but when you think about it - they're sorta synonymous.
Chick-fil-A
LSU vs. Georgia Tech
Charlie’s pick: “Tiger Jacket” - He was getting a little bored - don't call PETA.
Outback
South Carolina vs. Iowa
Charlie’s pick: South Carolina
Capital One
Georgia vs. Michigan State
Charlie’s pick: “bullpig”
Rose Bowl Game Presented by Citi
Penn State vs. USC
Charlie’s pick: Nittany Lions. Princess Nittany Lions. Honestly, that was his answer. He loves PSU - and "Princess" (he has 2 older sisters) is by far the greatest compliment/superlative he could ever bestow.
FedEx Orange
Cincinnati vs. Virginia Tech
Charlie’s pick: Cincinnati - He was really adamant about this one.
AutoZone Liberty
Kentucky vs. East Carolina
Charlie’s pick: ECU
Allstate Sugar
Utah vs. Alabama
Charlie’s pick: Bama -
Tostitos Fiesta
Ohio State vs. Texas
Charlie’s pick: tosu - I asked him twice - and that's his pick.
FedEx BCS National Championship Game
Florida vs. Oklahoma
Charlie’s pick: Florida - without a doubt. Although, when asked, he did say that Penn State would beat the Gators in a head-to-head.
Apparently he too is an advocate of a playoff.

Nice job in 'The Tailgator'. As soon as I saw that email looking for psu tailgaters I knew you'd response.
this boy will someday rule the planet.
kudos on your mention in"the tailgater".
Charlie's comments are smarter than those high falutin' high paid commentators on espn.
