Flugel Posted January 2, 2017 Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 There should be some goodies to watch in the 3 games on ESPN today. 1) Goodyear Cotton Bowl featuring Western Michigan Vrs Wisconsin at 1 pm ET. I'm not sure where he's projected but JJ Wattshisname's younger brother puts together a nice edge rush from his OLB position in the games I've seen him in to date. 2) Rose Bowl featuring Penn State vrs USC at 5 pm ET. 2 teams that really heated up as the year went on. Also 2 programs with histories of being NFL meat markets. Even in down years, PSU had an instinctive LBer like Sean Lee offering NFL teams a gem that can cover or defend the run extremely well. Both schools have quite a LBer and RB tradition. 3) Allstate Sugar Bowl featuring Auburn vrs Oklahoma at 8:30 pm ET. Westbrook is a damn good WR but he looks like he'll need to get a little stronger for defenses that will want to press cover his skinny frame. He also already has 1 concussion suffered vrs Oklahoma State. Someone in our current FO seems to like Auburn. I don't know if Mayfield will be a good Pro QB but he's pretty exciting at the college setting. Speaking of RB traditions, Oklahoma has sent RBs like Greg Pruitt, Billy Sims and Adrian's Peter's-son onto the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATENEARS Posted January 2, 2017 Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 Good stuff Flugel ... remember when we use to do those huge posts and analysis on each Bowl game, dissecting prospects down to what they ate for pre-game meals? Haha. No one really bothers anymore because there are bigger problems in-house than talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won some cake betting against Western Michigan in their last game verse Ohio U. OU almost beat them outright. Wisconsin ought to destroy them.

The Gipper Posted January 2, 2017 Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 Bowl games are now completely superfluous really....unless you are a fan of that school or work for the bowl committee. I was in San Antonio.....and nobody gave one shit really about the fact that the Alamo Bowl was being played there, except perhaps the hoteliers renting rooms.

And, with a lot of top prospects now skipping their bowl games you see how their importance has diminished....even to the players themselves.

Flugel Posted January 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 No thoughts on Florida and Iowa in the whateversponsorsnamehere bowl? Good job by you. Thanks for bringing that to my attention Mark. Our former Offensive Line Coach (Kirk Ferentz) is in charge of attracting 17-18 year old recruits full of testosterone to the cornfields of Iowa which doesn't seem quite as easy as the great/warm weather and tons of hotties Florida offers kids.. We have Gator Done vrs Git-R-Done. The last time Florida lost the SEC Championship they went on to lose their Bowl Game against Michigan. SEC Championship losers only want to play the 3rd or 4th best team in the Big 10? Apparently so when we factor in how far down the pecking order Iowa was this year. Way to challenge yourself Florida. This has the potential to be a good game but Bowl season can be pretty unpredictable sometimes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark O Posted January 2, 2017 Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 1-0-1 So far. Thanks to a missed PAT late by Western Michigan. Penn State needs to pull their head out of their ass soon or this one could get ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penn State needs to pull their head out of their ass soon or this one could get ugly. I know. Penn State has to stop turning the ball over. PSU's backup WR was the target in both of the INTs. I know some of our fans are watching USC's talented Corner Adoree-able Jackson today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen how fast he is when he has the ball in his hands but can he cover the big WRs play after play in the NFL. Iowa's Desmond King looks more like that press corner when you need him to be.more physical. Adoree plays off like we have seen far to many times. In the NFL.
