College Bowl Play of the Day: Sun Bowl

A heavyweight matchup in the Sun Bowl this year.

Notre Dame and Miami.  This would've been an Orange Bowl game for the National Championship about 20 or so years ago.  Both teams are looking to end 2010 on a good note, and winning this game should help preseason rankings for 2011.

Miami is favored by 3.

But I like Notre Dame. 

If the Irish line can protect quarterback Tommy Rees he could put up some numbers against the Hurricanes.  Jacory Harris is back starting at the QB position for Miami.  he's been erratic, but so has the rest of the team. 

The special teams could be the deciding factor today.  It's just great to see this rivalry rekindled. 

A couple trends to know: the Fighting Irish are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games as an underdog and Miami is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games as a favorite.

Can't believe I'm actually saying take Notre Dame and the 3 pts.

Have a great New Year's Eve of Football!
