Wasted's Bowl Predictions
Bored at work, nothing else to do. Looked over this link, but got confused as hell so went to this link instead....still confused as hell
Comparing the two links I see there are some differences and being as I have never really looked that close at these before I just kinda shrugged my shoulders and said F' it.... Be gentle when you tear into my predictions
Anyway, here we go -
Gildan New Mexico Bowl - Air Force vs. UMass
Famous Idaho Potato - Miami OH vs. SJSU
San Diego Poinsetta - Colorado State vs. BYU
Beef O' Brady's - USF vs. Marshall
R+L Carriers New Orleans - UTEP vs. Arkansas State
MAACO Bowl Las Vegas - SDSU vs. Utah
Sheraton Hawaii - Houston vs. UTSA
Little Caesars Pizza - Central Michigan vs. North Texas
Military - Southern Miss vs. Army
Belk - Clemson vs. Pitt
Bridgepoint Education Holiday - Baylor vs. Stanford
Champs Sports - Miami vs. Notre Dame
AdvoCare Independence - Georgia Tech vs. Boise
Meineke Car Care - Indiana vs. Northern Illinois
Bell Armed Forces - Rice vs. Nevada
Kraft Fight Hunger - Washington vs. Navy
Valero Alamo - TCU vs. UCLA
New Era Pinstripe - Cincy vs. Fresno
Music City - NC State vs. Auburn
Insight - WVU vs. Michigan
Hyundai Sun - UNC vs. Arizona
AutoZone Liberty - Rutgers vs. Tulsa
Chic-Fil-A - Wake Forest vs. Tennessee
TicketCity - ECU vs. Toledo
Capital One - Ohio State vs. Alabama
Outback - Nebraska vs. Missouri
Gator - Penn State vs. South Carolina
Cotton - Oklahoma vs. Mississippi State
BBVA Compass - Louisiana Lafayette vs. Idaho
GoDaddy - Ohio vs. FIU
Rose Bowl - Oregon vs. Michigan State
Orange - Florida State vs. Wisconsin
Sugar - Louisiana State vs. Texas
Fiesta - Oklahoma State vs. UConn
BCS Championship - Virginia Tech vs. Florida
71 teams were bowl eligible. Predicting Louisiana Monroe gets left out.
So....8 out of 35 picked exactly correct. 33/70 picked correct overall. Ehhh

Re: Wasted's Bowl Predictions
Yeah, Notre Dame was a hard one to figure out for me. I believe I finally just went with what the second link suggested.
Join a freakin' conference I wouldn't have this problem!!!

Re: Wasted's Bowl Predictions
Nice write up Wasted....
I did want to point out, the bowl you have Pitt in, says it is for the Big East #4 team...
New Era Pinstripe - Pitt vs. Fresno
I believe that I finished 2nd since record is tied with Cincy and I beat him head to head and we are both 5-2 in the Conference.
But even if you put me 3rd...
Champs Sports or Belk bowl should be it.
In both of your links, the New Era Pinstripe Bowl says it is for the Big East #4 team which would be Rutgers.
Personally, I don't care what bowl game I make it to, just my observation.
Again, nice write up.

Re: Wasted's Bowl Predictions
I once heard ACC #4 doesnt necessarily mean the 4th team in the standings but the fourth selection of a team from that conference. Is that right?

If that is, then I completely misunderstood those links and do apologize to you Wasted.Block M wrote:I once heard ACC #4 doesnt necessarily mean the 4th team in the standings but the fourth selection of a team from that conference. Is that right?
Again, it is a nice write up though. It is nice to get an idea of what the bowl games will look like.

Re: Wasted's Bowl Predictions
I'm thinking it is that way remembering back to S22. That season I won CUSA but went to the Vegas Bowl which at the time was CUSA No. 2. East Carolina went to the Liberty Bowl slotted for CUSA No. 1.The_Niddler wrote:If that is, then I completely misunderstood those links and do apologize to you Wasted.Block M wrote:I once heard ACC #4 doesnt necessarily mean the 4th team in the standings but the fourth selection of a team from that conference.

Re: Wasted's Bowl Predictions
Going by the 2nd link - #4 The Hyundai Sun Bowl receives the ACC Championship Game runner up or the fourth choice of ACC teams. Didn't really specify if it was in fact #4 in standings. I read over these things a few times and really had a lot of difficulty interpreting what they were saying.
Also, I assumed the standings here were all correct. Since it showed Cincy above Pitt I just assumed they owned the tie breaker instead of actually looking it up. Sorry.
Again though, I just did this for fun.

Re: Wasted's Bowl Predictions
Interesting, because I thought the Chik-fil-a bowl was always the ACC #2 and Orange Bowl was either ACC #1 or, if the ACC #1 was playing for the national Championship, the Orange Bowl would take the next best BCS worthy team. This is why there should be a playoff series

Re: Wasted's Bowl Predictions
I know its high on the must see list of bowl games but Poinsetta bowl tie in is WAC-MWC, although BYU did secure a bid to the same bowl last year (in real life)....

I looked here and saw that it says BYU is tied in for 2012 if Bowl Eligibile - Poinsetta Bowl

It may be. Since VT will be in the Championship game I put FSU in the Orange Bowl. Should be high in the BCS standings anyway. That made the next selection for the Chick-Fil-A bowl your Wake Forest team going by how I did it.

Re: Wasted's Bowl Predictions
Went back and looked at my paper. I had actually crossed out some teams and moved people around and for some reason I put them back the way I had them originally. So fixed that real quick. That does move Notre Dame, Pitt, and Cincy around.The_Niddler wrote:

It is all good bro, I am just busting balls.
Like someone else posted to you, much better than I could have done and I really appreciate the effort you put in.
Sorry if I came off wrong.
Thanks again.
