Who will be the most "unmotivated" or "motivated" in their bowl games this year?

I could absolutely see Bama/OSU being kind of lackluster, while OU could be extremely motivated. Oregon is another I think could be down

Who do you think will be up/down for their respective game

I would say LSU will be down, but with Jennings at QB they may play up just because it will be something new

Bama will sleepwalk and still win by 2 or 3 TDs because Oklahoma doesn't have a real QB

I'm not sure about my team. Shaw will be ready to play for sure and Spurrier always wants to win. But we have a few JRs on defense who are leaving for the NFL early and I worry they might take it easy.

Not to mention as excited as our team and our fan base was to whop Clemson again we failed in our ultimate goal of getting to the SECCG so I'm not sure how they're feeling.

Who knows with Bama... I can see Utah II, or I can see the Senior leaders getting them up to play going out winners. This bunch seems different than back in 2008-2009.

I am going with Texas as motivated if Mack steps down. All those kids would probably like to send him out a winner, auditioning for a new coach, and its close to home. Oregon players didn't want the Rose Bowl, well congrats, enjoy the frickin Alamo Bowl.

USC

Fresno State is good

Coaching situation still in flux

Bowl is early in the season

The bowl is in Las Vegas. Players don't care = players waving their hands in the air...

you never know really

supposing Saban went really going to Texas then I could see Alabama coming out really flat like LSU was against Iowa in 2004

I actually think Bama/OU could be like UF/Cincy from 09 considering it's mccarrons last game (Although it won't be as huge of a blowout, obviously).

Nebraska. I don't think Pelini gives a shite.

-Arizona St. will sleepwalk. Went from possible Rose Bowl to playing a 7-5 team on a 5 game losing streak
-Kirby will be able to get Bama motivated
-A&M will come out flat

This will be one hell of a game IMO......

Not sure about this... Bama should win but the disappointment will be seen by Bamas players.

What does he care about that? He's ready to go and they're definitely going to overlook Duke.

Against Texas Tech in the Holiday Bowl?


You crazy old man.




I think you're referring to the Rose Bowl, but he was talking about Arizona State not Stanford

ASU will come out flat and TTech wants to prove the 5 game losing streak was not as bad as it looked.

The last time Alabama wasn't in the national championship game, Michigan State died

Newsflash.... Duke is not that good. They have plenty players on A & m that want to prove they are draft worthy.


A & M smokes Duke.......
