I need help deciding who will when each individual college bowls. Out of the 32 college bowls. some outcomes are obvious. But would you please tell me who you think will when each game. You can see the list of bowl match ups at http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=2473969
Thank you very much.
I appreciate all answers I can get

Im not going to sit here and pick every team but I can tell you this. There are not that many upsets in college football so look at the BCS poll and pick the higher team for most of them.

Upsets happen every week. Bowls are no exception. I can give you a run down on the BCS games. Fla will be a good pick against OSU, since OSU has not faced a fast team all year. Fla is used to SEC speed. OSU seems to be everyone's darlin, so I'm expecting a decent point spread between them and the gators. Fla will almost definitely beat the spread, as this will be a close game regardless of who wins.
Mich will beat USC. USC is over-hyped anyway, and Mich is mad now.
LSU will spank ND....really bad.
OU and Boise should be a good game, but I think OU will put it out in the end.
I would avoid the Orange on picks completely. Unless there is a huge point spread. That should be a close game and could easily go either way.
The rest of the bowls, look at the schedule of the team, NOT THEIR BCS RANKING. If they are ranked high, but haven't played anyone of merit, avoid it as a pick.
