    So great to see the progress of UCONN football under Jim Mora and making it to a bowl game in 2022 (and also an unexpected boost to strength of schedule for opponents). Huskies will keep game close for a while, but Thundering Herd D takes Marshall to winner's circle in Myrtle Beach.

    Two fairly evenly matched teams playing on the frozen blue carpet in Boise. EMU comes in the hotter team (winners of 3 straight), plus weather should favor Eagles more than Spartans.

    LIBERTY 41 TOLEDO 37: (10 POINTS)
    Up and down Flames lost Hugh Freeze, but will still continue to be a solid program. Rockets put up some big numbers this year, but mostly against non-bowl teams. Flames tougher schedule should help. Ws over Arkansas & BYU and close shave vs. Deacs. They have lost 3 straight however...

  8. WESTERN KENTUCKY 40 SOUTH ALABAMA 37 (5 POINTS)
    Jaguars come in with a nice 10-2 record and (-4.5). Hilltoppers lost couple of offensive linemen to transfer portal, but get stud QB Austin Reed back in lineup. If o-line can hold up, WKU gets to winner's circle.

    Bears come in off a tough stretch with 3 straight L's to KSU, TCU (heart breaker), and TX. Falcons have won 4 straight, albeit to lesser opponents. This game might be fastest bowl game of the season as both teams will run the ball tons. Give the more athletic Bears a slight edge in 4th quarter.

    Cougs too much offense for Rajun Cajuns.

  15. WAKE FOREST 37 MISSOURI 34: (10 POINTS)
    Sam Hartman has decided to play in this game, but will not be back with Deacs next season. Hartman takes all tome passing TD record this evening and Dave Clawson gets another bowl win.

    Aztecs D makes big plays down the stretch to get the dub over Blue Raiders.
