I really hope the Poinsettia Bowl is a good game. Espurs: I think it will be, who's defense is better. BSU's defense has been flying under the radar all year. People forget that the offense has givin' up 3 pick 6s in the last 2 games. That means Fresno really only scored 3 points off the defense. Nevada only scored 20 points. I believe that puts the average points allowed at 10.5. TCU's is 10.92 (I don't know if they gave up any pick 6s, probably not). Pick 6s should be like unearned runs, yeah they happen and count on the scoreboard but don't penalize your stats for it.
As for my 5 non-BCS games
Poinsettia Bowl (BSU/TCU: This bowl is loving this match up, so am I)
Holiday bowl (Oregon/OkSt: San Diego is the place to be this year)
Chick-Fil-A bowl (GaTech/LSU: I don't know why, just seems like it might be interesting. see what team shows up)
Independence bowl (LaTech/NIU not big names but this could be a good match up)
Hawaii Bowl (UH/ND: Who doesn't want to see football being played in 80 degree weather in December and ND might have a losing season)
Honorable mention: Eagle Bank (Navy/WF: would be in the top 5, but it's a rematch)
