Weekend Preview

Well we are opening the bowl season on Saturday. Lets take a look:

EagleBank Bowl
Wake Forest vs Navy

The underachieving deacons take on a team that already beat them this year. Its the first time in 63 years that WFU is playing a team for a second time in a season but the question is whether they can win this time

New Mexico Bowl
Fresno State vs Colorado State

Fresno State is still thinking about what could have been. A lot of people were picking them to be this years top mid-major.

Magicjack St. Petersburg Bowl
South Florida vs Memphis

This should be a high scoring affair as both teams run a spread-type offense. South Florida was ranked #10 at one point before imploding at the end of the season. Should be a home game for the bulls as their school is a short drive away.

Pioneer Las Vegas Bowl
BYU vs Arizona

This is probably the best game of the weekend as both defenses should struggle to keep points off the board. Arizona is a quality team that gave USC a mid-season scare and BYU had their eyes on the BCS till they lost a close one to TCU.
