[kburjr]

And Iowa. Go Penn St

Does your dumb ass actually realize Gaskin had a better season than Barkley? Barkley will translate better to the NFL, but he wasn't even tops in his own conference, more or less the country.

UW was also #1 in the country in run defense. #1. In the country.
Penn State 16th.

Don't get me wrong, Penn State could come out and have a great game and win. Just your reasoning for being that confident shows you really don't know a fucking thing about college football this year.

Have a great day.

Im going with Washington for 2 reasons.

1.Chris Peterson will pull out all the stops

2.I dont think Saquon will be that invested in this one,hell he might not play like Fournette and McCaffery.

comes out.

Washington’s hoping he doesn’t play. And if he
doesn’t it’s to bad.

 

[TrustMeIamRight]

I thought for sure the committee would pair up Washington and Wisconsin in the Sprinkles Cupcake Bowl to honor the schedules the two teams faced this year.

PSU wins by 10+.

More proof you have no idea what you are talking about.

Why on earth would Washington hope any of their stars don't play? I want a top rate game and to see where UW is. I want the best challenge they can face against the most complete team. Who wants any sort of 'well they wouldn't have won if Barkley played' stuff. It's a hollow victory.

I'll be pissed if he doesn't play.

What does that even mean? You literally have no point.

You have the nations #1 rushing defense going up against a well known rusher. One that wasn't even tops in his own conference and is more known because he's going to be a high level draft pick with his size. And on the other side you have Gaskin that had better numbers than Barkley against the 16th best rush defense. That's the match up. And it destroys your first post. Sorry, facts and all.

Gaskin ran for 52 yards against the #36 rush defense when they played Utah. Barkley would run all over them. As long as they don't try running Barkley up the gut into Vea, like Utah did, he will get his yards. That being said, I hope the Huskies destroy Ped state.

By "" you mean relevant info that makes you look like a dumbass?

I was hoping Michigan could find a way to not absolutely suck against a couple of the quality teams thry played so we could have a chance to see a UW/Michigan matchup in a meaningful bowl. But apparently having one of the highest paid coaches gets you on the decline by his 3rd year.

You see how much the CFB respects Washington. Arizona State beats you and fires their coach.

Right. Clearly Oklahoma can't beat anyone after losing at home to Iowa state too.

That's not how college football works. It isn't how it has ever worked.

Both teams lost their play caller to promotions. That's a big unknown for both.

Outside of that it's about strengths and match ups on both sides, and emotion/energy/momentum.

Chris Petersen hasn't coached a team in the Fiesta Bowl since he coached Boise St. to a win over Oklahoma.

Not so. Three years later he beat #3 TCU.

Who's calling the plays for Washington?

If Jonathon Smith is sticking around through the bowl game...PSU.

If not...Washington.

Last Petersen was asked about that he said they were still working that out. Smith is already gone and Hamdan won't be joining the team until after the end of the NFL season. It will be someone already on staff.
