Bowden Picks Bulls to win

[BULLO12]

Big East: South Florida at Connecticut - 3:30 p.m. ET (ABC regional)    Connecticut

Bulls 2nd, Big East

Record: 6-3, 4-1  at Huskies  

7th, Big East  

Record: 4-5, 1-4    

I'll be in Storrs with ABC Sports to cover this Big East battle, and as incredible as it seems, there's a lot at stake. If South Florida wins, the Bulls need only to beat West Virginia in Tampa next week to earn a $14.5 million BCS berth. Not bad for a program that began playing football in 1997.

Running back Andre Hall averages 120 yards per game, and the USF defense is one of the better units in the conference. USF has won three straight and is facing a Connecticut team riddled with injuries and on a four-game losing streak. But UConn is getting back QB Matt Bonislawski, who was injured four games ago. The Huskies went from 4-1 to 4-5 with him out.

It should be pretty cold, and I don't know how that will affect the boys from Florida. If the Bulls can keep their hands warm, they should leave New England with a chance to play the Mountaineers for a piece of the Big East championship.

Pick: Bulls
