Bowl Predictions- Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl, New Era Pinstripe Bowl, Franklin American Mortgage Music City Bowl and Insight Bowl

The first full day of bowl season.

Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl- BYU vs. Tulsa
Two high scoring offenses should make this a fun game to watch. The team that has the ball last may win. Call this a toss-up.

Parker's pick: BYU
My pick: Tulsa

Shouldn't a military academy be playing in the Armed Forces Bowl?


New Era Pinstripe Bowl: Rutgers vs. Iowa State
Rutgers has become a perennial power in the northeast. Iowa State knocked off previously unbeaten Oklahoma State but finished 3-6 in the Big 12. That the Cyclones qualify for a bowl is a major improvement.

Parker's pick: Rutgers
My pick: Rutgers

New Era makes some really cool (and some really hideous) caps.


Franklin American Mortgage Music City Bowl: Mississippi State vs. Wake Forest
Mississippi State has big, strong line play. Wake has lost 5 of it last 6.

Parker's pick: Mississippi State
My pick: Mississippi State

Just an FYI but mortgage rates are at near record lows.


Insight Bowl: Iowa vs. Oklahoma
When I think of Iowa or Purdue or Missouri, I think 7-5. Average, just average. Oklahoma is a college football power. Great usually beats average.

Parker's pick: Oklahoma
My pick: Oklahoma

Insight Enterprises is a information technology outsourcing enterprise. The bowl was previously named the Copper Bowl.
