Bumping Iowa State +12 to a 3 unit play, I think this could be one of the most entertaining bowl games of the year and could come close to the thriller last year of ECU and Marshall. I dont think the weather will be a huge factor for Iowa State, hell have you ever been to Iowa it's not like it's sunny and warm in the Winter. McCarney is one of the best coaches around and has been pissed about the teams lack of a ground game the final few eeks of the season, I look for ISU to try to establish the ground game and keep it close then put it in the hands of Wallace at the end of the game.
Adding 1 unit play on Geo Tech-6, not a real strong play for me but Fresno is just a mess right now and Gailey has the Jackets going in the right direction, but I cannot lay alot of $$$$ on this game because of the erratic QB play of Tech and the proximity of the game to the Fresno campus. Tech should get the $$ here but tread lightly.
2 unit play on Washington, the Sun Bowl has traditionally been one of the bowls that i usually have a tough time capping, but Washington has completely dominated this series and seem to turn the season around towards the end of the year. Neither team really deserves to be in a bowl IMO but both teams have solid coaches and this should be a close game decided by under 7 points.
Maryland-1 for 2 units, Ralph's offense can be a puzzle to teams that have not seen it. There is no doubt that the Vols have a solid defense, but it's tough to defense a team that has so many weapons and comes at you from so many different angles. Claussen has not lived up to his potential and scares me when I bet his side, this may be the game that he breaks through but I wont put my $$ on him. Both of the teams should be solid next year with both having a outside shot of being a top 5 team next year. This should be a close and exciting game.
Va Tech under 55.5 for 1 unit, these teams are both very familiar with each others offense as they run variations of each others offense during their games. I think both of these coaches are in the top 10 in the country look at how they have turned around programs that lack appeal for recruiting purposes. Good coaches battling usually leads to a low scoring game as the chess match unfolds.
Allready posted TCU+5.5 4 unit play
Good Luck Cappers!!!!!!!
