i think nowdays everyone plays half bowl teams since half the teams go to bowls ... at least as far as the major conferences go

[big daddy russ]

TxTech and Auburn in the Cotton Bowl. That would be a good game.

Its crazy how Price has gotten UTEP into a good football team i look for great things from them in the future and i think they could beat Kansas St.; It is also crazy how OU isnt projected as a bowl team(its just so beautiful:p)

Pmoney...Not that they deserve it, but OU is projected to go bowling.
