Bowl Week 3


20-9! With the win over Kentucky last night, Clemson secured a bowl win, and Inside The Shoe´s 20th win in picking. We hope to have more success with this, and will keep moving on. So let´s begin week 3, I am excited, as the bowl games get more intense, all leading up to the BCS bowls.

Today
Independence Bowl: Texas A&M v. Georgia – 5:00 PM (ESPN2)
Expect an all out bout of passing attack as Joe Cox and the Bulldogs face of aganist Texas A&M´s Jerrod Johnson. This game in which two high powered offenses face off aganist the opposing defense´s that are, well, terrible, to put it simply. I like Georgia, but i think i HAVE to go with the upset simply because Georgia tends to let everyone down, Texas A&M 35-31

Tuesday
EagleBank Bowl: UCLA v. Temple – 4:30 PM (ESPN)
In a game that UCLA is lucky to be in, as if Army would have won aganist Navy they would be in and not UCLA, Temple looks to cap off a pretty good season, and will look for the so called "upset". Both teams have nothing spectactular about their offense. Or defense. Or really anything for that matter, so expect a bit of a slow start, middle, and ending, as Temple gets the win 10-7.

Champs Sports Bowl: Miami v. Wisconsin – 8:00 PM (ESPN)
This game brings a lot of attention, 1. Jacory Harris and 2. It´s the first B10 team. Both team´s have their play makers on offense with Jacory Harris and John Clay. Wisky´s defense is not much of a threat, although they can rise to the occasion. Miami´s D-Line is not to be toyed with, so expect Clay to have some trouble finding some holes as Miami takes this one, and will look to have a great season next year, 24-14

Wednesday
Humanitarian Bowl: Bowling Green v. Idaho – 4:30 PM (ESPN)
With the game being full of high scoring and high powered offenses, look for this to be a common, but fun to watch MAC\WAC shootout, Bowling Green´s senior wide-out, Barnes, looks to hold the single season reception record down, if he can get 5 more catches. Look for BG to win, a close one though, 42-35

Holiday Bowl: Arizona v. Nebraska – 8:00 PM (ESPN)
Perhaps the match-up everyone has been waiting for, for awhile now. You have one of the best defenses, Nebraska, and a high powered offense, Arizona. Suh will look to cap off a Heisman running season, into which he leads his team, while Arizona looking for some bowl love, will be led by tailbacks Nic Grigsby and Keola Antolin, who combined for over 1100 yards and 9 touchdowns for this season. Expect a struggle for power, with Nebraska pulling it out 20-14.

The rest of the bowl week 3 will be continued in another post, as a majority of the bowls are on Thursday, then we move to the BCS bowls..stay tuned.
