Two games tonight as the big name bowls with big name teams are now only days away.
Little Caesar's Bowl:
Not really a very appealing bowl matchup at first glance. Neither team gets much TV time in the Knoxville area. Western Michigan has a high-powered offense while Purdue is fortunate to be bowl-eligible.
Parker's pick: Western Michigan ("they have a better record")
My pick: Western Michigan
In a pinch, Little Caesar's $5.00 Hot and Ready is a great fallback.
Belk Bowl:
The inaugural bowl for the southeastern based department store, this game features an average Big East team against an average ACC team. Louisville starts lots of freshmen including QB Teddy Bridgewater. As a result, the Cardinals offense struggles to put points on the board. The NC Sate offense is the pro-style version favored by Coach Tom O'Brien and led by Mike Glennon.
Parker's pick: NC State ("their defense creates lots of turnovers").
My pick: NC State
We don't shop at Belk much.
Overall bowl record:
Parker: 6-2
Me: 6-2
At some point, I'm sure we'll differ on a game but right now, the two games we missed were by a total of 12 points. Our winners have won by an 86 point margin.
Getting no help from me, I'm starting to think Parker really knows what he's talking about.
