We are overdue a quality bowl game and the squads at the ChampsSports Bowl may deliver. The match-up of West Virginia and North Carolina State is one with an obvious meeting of dynamic QBs in Geno Smith of the Mountaineers and the underrated Russell Wilson of NC State. And, of course, we can witness Wolfpack coach Tom O'Brien trying to outwit the staff of the Mountaineers, his former rivals from his Boston college days. O'Brien was a whiz this time of year, while West Virginia has won four of their last five post-season contests. This game should be a good one. I took the Pack and the points.
Tonight we also have the Insight Bowl and I am unsure what to make of this game. I feel that Missouri has been overrated all season, while Iowa has suspended both its leading rusher (Adam Robinson) and second leading receiver (Derrell Johnson-Koulianos) for drugs. The big mystery is whether the Hawkeyes bounce back from a dreadful finish to the season without these two stars or fold up the tent. I did pick Iowa, but am more confident in the under.
