2011 College Football Bowl Pick'Em: Week 1
Time to start picking this year's college football bowl games. Here's this week's slate of games (with picks against the spread ... like a man).
We'll pick all 35 games against the spread, including five bonus picks worth double, for a total of 40 points. Neither of us are doubling down on this week's bowl games. May the best man win.
| Date | Bowl Game | Matchup | Jeff | Brian |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 12/17 | New Mexico Bowl | Wyoming vs. Temple (-7) | Temple | Wyoming |
| 12/17 | Famous Idaho Potato Bowl | Ohio vs. Utah State (-3) | Ohio | Ohio |
| 12/17 | New Orleans Bowl | San Diego State (-5) vs. Louisiana-Lafayette | San Diego State | Louisiana-Lafayette |
| 12/20 | St. Petersburg Bowl | FIU (-4) vs. Marshall | FIU | FIU |
| 12/21 | Poinsettia Bowl | TCU (-11) vs. Louisiana Tech | TCU | TCU |
| 12/22 | Las Vegas Bowl | Boise State (-14) vs. Arizona State | Boise State | Boise State |

Oh, the folly of picking against the spread for 35 college football exhibition games.

That was an epic butt whooping. And Ohio is losing as well, oh how I love picking Bowl Games.

Wow, ULL is completely swallowing up Ronnie Hillman….They can’t stop the passing game, but Hillman keeps running backwards.

1-2 through the first three games. Somehow I am still in the 81st percentile—god bless low confidence ratings. Go me!

Got Temple and Ohio right, San Diego State wrong.
Unfortunately, 2 confidence points awarded to Temple. Just 1 to Ohio. FAIL.
