None tanking(hopefully), but a lot of the games should be really close

South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia

Maybe Tennessee. I just hope it's not LSU. We are due to lose a bowl game.

If LSU drops their bowl game you will see excuses flying and the fire Les threads blowing up.
Funny thing if you look at numbers this is first year the opponent dominates LSU in pretty much ever facet of the game. LSU has better special teams than Penn State but Penn State has better offense/defense statistically. In past years bowl games LSU had advantages in certain areas, that is not the case this year.
Penn State may be most evenly matched team LSU has played in a bowl in recent history. I expect a close battle and will be disappointed if it is not. In either teams favor

Im thinking Arkansas will. They historically play bad in bowl games and have not fared well in Memphis either.

I'm thinking Arkansas is actually due to WIN one for a change. Go Hogs.

That's pretty impressive. Ole Miss' bowl history in bowl games(record) is very impressive.

Terrible bowl history means BP in his first with the team = egg.
Got it.

Nutt =
Bowl Losses: UNLV, OU, Minnesota, Wisconsin (Mizzou by proxy)
Yep,
is right.

Fify
Nutt at Ole Miss =
#7 TTU. Arkansas had a problem with losing bowl games long before Nutt got their.

Ha, knew that would force you into convulsions over Nutt 
Have fun in Memphis

Sao it was more than Nutt that has the bad history. Broyles, Hatfield, Holtz all had losing bowl records in Fayetteville.

Hope they don't pull a Bama-Utah.

Florida losing to Cincy would be worse than Bama losing to Utah
Posted on 12/25/09 at 8:44 pm to Number 3 is my Hero
How would Cincy beating UF be worse? Cincy has a legitimate complaint about not being in NC Game. I know people will say because of Kelly, but Pike and Gilyard are as good as anyone UF has faced.

"due to lose" = gamblers fallacy
