No games tonight...WTF? But the weekend has us covered with a couple of Bowl Games:
 
HAWAII BOWL
NEV-SOMISS (-6)
2 on NEV, rest of us on SOMISS. JG and AW are the brave NEV backers. BTW, JG did have a BOISE cover go in his favor last night for the first Bowl win of the season...congrats.
 
INDEPENDENCE BOWL
NC-MIZZ (-4)
This is a Monday game, and it should be closer than than our X-mas eve battle. We have a large portion on MIZZ (13 guys) and only 3 of us on NC (JR, SS, MO). It's a coin flip, I figured NC would play some motivated ball in the last game for interim coach Everett Withers, who ironically enough is getting tons of praise as a defensive genius who was just hired as DC by Urban at The Ohio State. Many forget that he was brought into the college ranks by the legendary TE coach himself TE Timmy Brew as our DC in 2007...yeah, the year we had maybe the worst defense that college football has ever seen. But apparently that has been wiped clean from the record of one E.Withers, so he's a god now.
 
Enjoy the Holiday - I will likely send out an update on Saturday once things start to shake out. Good Luck!
