Key: Numbers in () is watchability rating, 1 being the highest, 3 the lowerest. *=team is going to bowl, **=mean I predicted the game correctly. All times PM, except those times marked with *, which are AM. For best printing, set your printer to landscape mode. Underlined teams are predicted winners, bold is the actual winner. The final score is marked besides the predicted one, and the column on the far right is number of points earned (1 for each correct winner, one for each score predicted correctly, which means a max of 3 pts. per game, and a total of 69 points (23 bowls x 3 ppg = 69 possible).
Motor City Bowl: Brigham Young University will be the hardest team Marshall's played all year, and it will show, but Marshall will eventually win.
Alamo Bowl: Should be named the Upset Bowl after what Purdue did to Kansas State last year. Same will happen hear, as Penn State will be favored, but lose yet again. Texas A&M actually has something to play for besides pride, unlike Penn State.
Humanitarian Bowl: Oh, blue turf, and there's nothing better on TV! I still can't get over that blue turf........
MicronPC Bowl: While not a great game, it'll beat the pants off of the Peach Bowl.
Sun Bowl: Nothing better on strikes again, although you'll get to see the team that sent Penn State into a downward spiral (Minnesota).
Liberty Bowl: Two minor-conference champions face off in what should be a good game.
Cotton Bowl: A surprisingly close game, and will be a better game than the Outback Bowl.
Citrus Bowl: Surprising Michigan State will beat a Florida team which has lost it all.
The Rose Bowl Game: Ron Dayne.
Orange Bowl: Alabama is simply a better team than Michigan, and I'm not Alabama fan, but they will win.
Fiesta Bowl: I still think Nebraska is overrated, and Tennessee will beat them.
Sugar Bowl: The national championship game. It's simple, Virginia Tech does not have the schedule Florida State have, and through inexperience, will lose. Another prediction: Michael Vick, the Tech quarterback, will win the Heisman as a junior.
Music City Bowl: I'd like to quote CBS Sportsline for this one: "Kentucky brings the offense, Syracuse brings... uh ... the orange."
Holiday Bowl: K State gets screwed again, but this time it's their really bad non-conference schedule, not Ricky Williams. But they will win their bowl this time, as they play a non-descript Washington team.
Insight.com Bowl: Although Colorado nearly beat Nebraska (they should have beat Nebraska), they will lose to Boston College.
Gator Bowl: Georgia Tech's high-power offense beats Miami, because their defense won't.
Peach Bowl: A rather average Clemson won't stand up to Mississippi State's defense in what will be a very boring game.
Independence Bowl: Who cares?
Outback Bowl: Georgia vs. Purdue. This was supposed to be a good game, but will end up sucking as Georgia finds themselves unable to defend Drew Brees.
