Clemson vs. Virginia Tech - Gonna be an absurdly epic shootout
Wisconsin vs. Oregon - Maybe my two favorite teams after LSU
Stanford vs. Oklahoma State - Love watching Blackmon
Arkansas vs. Kansas State - No one has done the coaching job this year Bill Snyder has
Florida vs. Ohio State - For obvious reasons

Honorable Mention: Baylor bc of RGIII obviously

Washington vs Baylor
Nebraska vs South Carolina
Arkansas vs KSU

UGA vs MSU

In no particular order. It's a sucky arse year for bowls.

No idea how many yards LSU put up on you in the rush game but I'll take a week long ban bet that Wisky gets 50 more. And as of now I haven't looked at the LSU/Oregon Box score so this may be a dumb bet by me

Edit: just looked, I think Wisky puts up 225+ so I'm good with that

And I'm most intrigued to obviously watch the SEC/Big X games because those own the first day of the new year (2nd this year) and I'm a Big X fan


Wisconsin faced UNLV, Oregon State (they were depleted as hell), NIU, FCS, Purdue, Indiana, and Minny...

The bottom half of their schedule was dismal. Putrid. Horrific.

The top half of their schedule was Penn State, tOSU, Illini, MSU, and NU. Penn State (post-Sandusky) and the Illini have no offense to speak of. NU has Martinez throwing the ball and they got them on the first half of their schedule when their defense was porous.

Sorry, but LSU runs roughshod on that schedule.

Oh, LSU ran for 3.6 yards per carry against Oregon.

Oregon held Stanford to 124 yards rushing. We've had 5 guys on defense start every game. Wisconsin is going to be facing a finally healthy Duck defense.

Well then you have no problem with the ban bet then; Wisky goes for 225 on the ground

not much point in a ban bet that I can see

I could live with that. Don't really need to do any bet I like him honestly

But I think the disrespect Wisky is getting in pounding the ball is awful

I don't care if they go for 225 on the ground. You said 50 points. I will be that every day and twice on Sunday.

You should read more, because I said I don't care what LSU put up on the ground game, Wisky would get 50 more...so 175+50=225

Anyway, I was just making a point that I think Wisky imposes their will on Oregon's Rush D.

I understand now. LSU just had short field all game long. Hard to rack up the yards.

Wisky played 3 BCS ranked teams this year and rushed for 346 yards total.

They're not rushing for 225 against Oregon.

Especially if Oregon gets a good lead.

I think LSU rushes for more yards against Bama than WISKY does against The Ducks.
