College Bowl Play of the Day: MAACO Bowl

The MAACO Bowl tonight has one of the best matchups of the year.  I don't think Boise St. and Utah thought they would be playing in a bowl game on December 22, at the beginning of the year. 

But here they are playing in the MAACO Bowl in Las Vegas.

Boise is favored by 17, at first glance that may seem like too many, but when you look at the meat and potatoes of each team, I'm not sure how Utah is going to stop Boise's passing attack. 

The Utes will be without starting quarterback Jordan Wynn, who is out because of a shoulder injury. Senior Terrance Cain is a capable backup, but to beat Boise, Utah needs to be at full strength.

Led by quarterback Kellen Moore, and the fact that the Broncos are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 Bowl games, I have to say take Boise and lay the 17.

College Bowl Pick of the Day: BYU

A trio of bowl games today, but nothing great.

BYU

BYU is taking on an undermanned UTEP today in the New Mexico Bowl.

BYU is giving 11 to the Miners, but don't worry.  Both teams has 6-6 seasons, but all the trends favor BYU as well as the fact that they played a more difficult schedule.  Take Brigham Young and give the puntos in New Mexico.
