March Boldness

A couple of weeks ago, I promised some boldness, and I'm not talking about Sleezy not wearing deodorant. I hooked up with Sak from In The Bleachers and Aaron Rennie from CFB Weekly to lay down some bold picks for bowls, Heismans, and some other crazy sidebets. Here's what ensued...

Aaron Rennie’s picks

BCS title game: Georgia vs. USC
Fiesta Bowl: Oklahoma vs. Wisconsin
Sugar Bowl: West Virginia vs. Florida
Orange Bowl: Clemson vs. Missouri
Rose Bowl: Ohio State vs. Arizona State

Note: I had trouble figuring these out because you can't have more than two teams from the same conference; hence, no LSU, Texas Tech. I threw ASU in there only because the Rose Bowl tries to keep the Big Ten-Pac-10 thing alive, even if one conference doesn't deserve a team there, like the Big Ten with Illinois last year. Also, I have no idea if a Utah, Boise State or Hawaii will crash the party, so I kept them out.)

Heisman: Chris "Beanie" Wells, Ohio State

Surprise teams: Texas Tech, Colorado
Disappointing teams: Texas, Rutgers

First coach to get canned: Greg Robinson, Syracuse

Sak's Boldness

BCS: USC vs Georgia
Rose: Ohio State vs Arizona State
Sugar: Missouri vs Florida
Orange: Clemson vs West Virginia
Fiesta: Oklahoma vs Wisconsin

Heisman: Chris Wells, Percy Harvin, Chase Daniel

Surprise Teams: Texas Tech, Pittsburgh

Disappointing Teams: Kansas, Penn State (19 starters returning I bet they win only 8 or 9 games)- Side note; Sak is a Penn State fan...that's almost bold enough.

First coach to get canned: Greg Robinson, Tyrone Willingham

Big Head's knowledge of boldness

BCS: Georgia/USC
Fiesta: Mizzou/tOSU
Rose: Wisky/Oregon (damn, the Pac 10 could really suck. Rose Bowl picking suckass teams should be called the Illini rule)
Sugar: Florida/Texas
Orange: Miami/WV

Heisman: Knowshon Moreno, Tim Tebow, Chase Daniel

-Surprise Teams
Colorado: Great incoming class
Miami: Great recruits, and Randy Shannon has another year
Texas: Only leave the state twice all season (kU and Colorado)
UCLA: Neuheisel is a miracle worker
Notre Dame: Couldn't get any worse, right?

-Disappointments
GTech: New coach with bad system
VTech: Key defenders gone, Sean Glennon...again?
LSU: Losing a lot and Perrilloux is always in trouble.
Arkansas: Two Cadillacs (insert McFadden joke HERE) gone. Casey Dick is their offense.
kU: Finally playing a schedule

-File 13'd coach: Ron Prince. There's some shady stuff going on in Manhattan. It's stranger than Sleezy's excuse for going to some bar called "Glory Hole" with only suspenders and PE coach's shorts on.
