Rivals Bowl Predictions

[WoolyBully]

wow...

I guess it's technically possible for WVU to win the conference.  They are terrible this season,

but they are ahead of us in the conference.

...as of today, Pitt, Uconn & WVU are all ahead of USF in the W/L category,

with Pitt & USF in the top 25. So absolutely, either WVU or UCONN could

be the BE champions. Gotta remember, once the BE starts conference play,

each loss is extremely expensive. While the 5-0 'pre-season' was entertaining,

it's that conference stretch where the rubber meets the road.

I'd prefer one of the BCS bowl games or Charlotte. Just being honest, nothing

else has much appeal. St. Pete would be a novelty, but we can take

pizza and cold weather attire off the agenda.

I did not see Rutgers on a bowl in that list.  Seems strange. 

Also, WVU had a hard time with Syracuse today, so anything can happen.

BCS/Gator or bust, baby. FSU in the Gator bowl would be SWEET. Not as sweet, of course, as Sugar or Oranges though....

I'm still hoping for the BCS.

Only if ND keeps losing will we have a shot at the Gator.

Weirdly enough, the St. Pete bowl would be the third best alternative for the school, for three reasons (1) payout, (2) low cost to send team and band, and (3), highest probability of a win.

If we don't get the BCS or Gator, I think the school would actually lobby the Meineke to NOT pick us, so we could go to St. Pete.

Pitt had a "hard time" with the Cuse as well. Look what happened there.

Not too sure what you mean, but Rutgers is 1-5.

You do realize that this is the same Rivals that does not have us listed as being in the Big East on their Game Channel. Boston College is still there though. I have a problem, when those predicting can't keep their own eggs in order.
