New Year's Eve Bowl Picks: 5 Games

A busy day with 5 games to be played today.

Armed Forces Bowl - Houston and Air Force. Normally I would find it hard to go against a Service Academy in The Armed Forces Bowl, but I have to this time. Houston will outscore Air Force.

Sun Bowl - Oklahoma and Stanford. Will The Sooners wake and up and show us the talent they have and take this game? I think so, Stanford has had a surprising team this year in the PAC 10, but Oklahoma will beat them up and win by 10.

Texas Bowl - Navy and Missouri. An even match, I didn't go with Air Force earlier, but I'll take Navy this time in a mild upset.

Insight Bowl - Minnesota and Iowa St. Two 6-6 teams go at it in Tempe. One thing for sure, fans of both teams are happy to be out of Minnesota and Iowa to enjoy some warmer weather in Arizona. I'm an Iowa State grad, so I have to say Go Cyclones! Iowa St by 6.

Chick-Fil-A Bowl - I still call this The Peach Bowl, but whatever. Tennessee and VA. Tech. VA Tech is a better team, and better coached. A close game with VA Tech pulling it out at the end.

 Bowl Record so far:  9-6
