Poinsettia Bowl: Navy over San Diego State 17-16.
I was: CORRECT
Bahamas Bowl: Western Kentucky over Central Michigan 49-48.
I was: CORRECT
This was the greatest of all the bowl games and it was the inaugural Bahamas Bowl. 34-point comeback? Big deal. Try throwing something other than a fade pass on your why-not-let-it-fly? two-point conversion.
Hawaii Bowl: Rice over Fresno State 30-6.
I was: WRONG
This was the worst of all bowl games.
Heart of Dallas Bowl: Louisiana Tech over Illinois 35-18.
I was: CORRECT
 |
| QB Cody Sokol was an average, non-integral part of Louisiana Tech's win and now, Florida's QB Jeff Driskel will transfer to the school this off-season. |
Quick Lane Bowl: Rutgers over North Carolina 40-21.
I was: WRONG
St. Petersburg Bowl: NC State over Central Florida 34-27.

Congratulations to Virginia Tech on winning one of the flukiest games in recent memory over Ohio State earlier this season.
Sun Bowl: Arizona State over Duke 36-31.
I was: CORRECT
Duke almost always plays entertaining football and this close afternoon match-up was no different.
Independence Bowl: South Carolina over Miami (FL) 24-21.
I was: CORRECT
Pinstripe Bowl: Penn State over Boston College 31-30 in OT.
I was: WRONG
Thanks to a missed extra point, this game only lasted one overtime when it felt like it could have gone on for much longer and the viewers would have been just fine with that.
Holiday Bowl: USC over Nebraska 45-42.
I was: CORRECT
 |
| Jake Roth - USA TODAY Sports Interim Coach Barney Cotton did a fine job of coaching but, apparently nothing could save the Cornhusker defense. |
Liberty Bowl: Texas A&M over West Virginia 45-37.
I was: WRONG
Another wild, high-scoring fun-fest that ended Kenny Hill's career at TAMU as he now transfers to back up Trevone Boykin at TCU.
Russell Athletic Bowl: Clemson over Oklahoma 40-6.
I was: WRONG
The most surprising bowl game. Oklahoma did not show up at all and Clemson never had their typical Clemson late-game screw-ups.
Texas Bowl: Arkansas over Texas 31-7.
I was: WRONG
Why did I pick Texas? What made me do that?
Music City Bowl: Notre Dame over LSU 31-28.
I was: WRONG
After the monstrous collapse of Everett Golson, the Golson/Malik Zaire Quarterbacking handcuff worked swimmingly for Head Coach Brian Kelly. A last-second field goal was the big determining factor in this entertaining (Although, not quite musical enough) bowl game.
Belk Bowl: Georgia over Louisville 37-14.
I was: CORRECT
Ending my long streak of incorrectly chosen winners, RB Nick Chubb saved myself and Georgia in a thorough beating of Bobby Petrino in his first bowl game of his second tenure coaching at Louisville.
Foster Farms Bowl: Stanford over Maryland 45-21.
I was: CORRECT
Maryland needs to start playing some real defense if they want to be taken seriously any time soon.
Peach Bowl: TCU downright murdered Ole Miss 42-3.
I was: CORRECT
I'm not one to laugh at other people's failures (considering I have my own) but... Bo Wallace. wow. Just... wow.
 |
| Not sure what you think you're doing there, Bo but, you should probably stop considering it. |
Fiesta Bowl: Boise State over Arizona 38-30.
I was: WRONG
Orange Bowl: Georgia Tech over Mississippi State 49-34.
I was: WRONG
Another real surprise, the triple-option offense might just be a strategy that teams like Texas, LSU, and Wisconsin might want to consider with lingering QB issues.
Outback Bowl: Wisconsin over Auburn 34-31 in OT.
I was: WRONG
I was under the impression that this was a toss-up so... at least I wasn't wrong about everything.
Cotton Bowl: Michigan State over Baylor 42-41.
I was: WRONG
An epic collapse ends Bryce Petty's career at Baylor and just leaves more questions about the playoff committee's final rankings,
Citrus Bowl: Missouri over Minnesota 33-17.
I was: CORRECT
Rose Bowl: Oregon over Florida State 59-20.
I was: WRONG
 |

I was: WRONG
TaxSlayer Bowl: Tennessee over Iowa 45-28.

Alamo Bowl: UCLA over Kansas State 40-35.
I was: WRONG
Cactus Bowl: Oklahoma State over Washington 30-22.
I was: CORRECT
Birmingham Bowl: Florida over East Carolina 28-20.
I was: CORRECT
Shane Carden's draft value took a hit after he threw a mindless interception on the last-minute drive.
GoDaddy.com Bowl: Toledo over Arkansas State 63-44.
I was: CORRECT
Toledo's run game was unstoppable and there might be a prospect hiding on this o-line or in this backfield somewhere.
National Championship: Ohio State over Oregon 42-20.
I was: CORRECT (in a way. When I picked the game, it was listed as winner of Alabama/Ohio St. or winner of Oregon/Florida State. I chose Alabama/Ohio St. thinking it would be Alabama winning.)
We just witnessed the birth of a legend. Welcome aboard the Cardale Jones Reality Tour, where we ain't come to play school and Wisconsin, 'Bama and Oregon are no match for THE Cardale Jones.
