December 7th, 2007
We simulated all 32 college football bowls 1,001 times to find the likely winners and average scores from each game. Results and example boxscores from all 32 games are below. Using the same methodology last season, we accurately predicted the winner of 88% of the bowls straight-up and 80% of them against-the-spread. If you would like to play these games yourselves, all of these teams are available through the site's free college football SimMatchup tool.

Player of the Game: Paul Smith, QB, Tulsa (276 passing yards, 3 TDs, 22 rushing yards, 1 TD)
Rose Bowl
USC 27 - Illinois 10
Highlight: The Rose Bowl opted to retain "tradition" with a Big Ten-Pac-10 matchup. That may have been a bad decision. The Illini are at least a year away. USC appears to be the deepest and most talented team in the country.

Sugar Bowl
Georgia 38 - Hawaii 33

Player of the Game: Allen Patrick, RB, Oklahoma (215 total yards, 4 TDs)
Orange Bowl
Virginia Tech 20 - Kansas 13
Highlight: In an epic battle of defense versus offense, defense wins. Virginia Tech sacks Todd Reesing six times, including three times by freshman backup free safety Davon Morgan, en route to a narrow victory in the high-profile bowl game.
Player of the Game: Davon Morgan, FS, Virginia Tech (3 sacks)
