Husker Fans in No Holiday Mood
When Nebraska traveled to Seattle earlier this year to face Washington, over 20,000 faithful fans went with them to witness the Huskers 56-21 obliteration of the Huskies. The re-match between the two in next weeks Holiday Bowl in San Diego isn’t pulling that many fans out of their winter...
jones Top Ten 2010 Bowl Preview Spectacular
My fellow Texas fans: Please set aside your animosity and neurosis for a brief moment and revel in all that is good about the holiday spirit and the bowl season to come. For there is still football to be played. If that is not enough, Andy Williams will join us for a song later, plus Shields and...

New Year's Day bowl games open thread
First up is the Outback Bowl between Auburn and Northwestern. I don't get Outback Steakhouse. I don't get Australian-themed restaurants in general. I mean, what the fuck is walkabout soup? And what the fuck are jackaroo chops? But I guess if you like it that's cool. Northwestern's quarterback looks...
Open Thread: Holiday Bowl - Ndamukong Suh vs. Arizona Wildcats
As Texas fans we witnessed a game that probably single-handedly cost Colt McCoy the Heisman while simultaneously elevating Ndamukong Suh into Heisman contention and ultimately allowed him to shag six valkyries on his way to Asgard and kick Odin's ass out of his throne. So, let's see what he can do...

Where: Orlando, FL When: December 29, 7:00 Central on ESPN Line History: Opened at 2 but up to 3.5 now. Total is 57. Trips Rights' Blind Line: I made Miami a touchdown favorite. The Computer’s Pick: On a points per play basis it likes the Canes by 4. Conference Strength: ACC When Miami has the...
Bowl Preview 9: The Emerald Bowl
When a collection of unmotivated fast twitch muscles takes on a motivated cellular mass made up of mitochondria, grit, and want-to, who wins? I'd be interested from answers from anyone but Jimmy the Greek and Al Campanis. But that aside, we'll get to see a pretty good case study tonight in San...
Bowl Preview 8: Meineke Car Care Bowl
From Trips Rights' latest bowl game preview: The 2009 Meineke Car Care Bowl, for one year anyway, should be renamed Former Dallas Cowboy Defensive Coordinator sponsored by Baby Dolls Bowl. The only thing that would give this game less imagination and innovation would be if Dave Campo and Chan...
jones Top Ten Bowl Preview 2009
Melbourne. The new wife and I sit and drink in a pub by the train station. We share a table with two young Aussies and an old Irishman, whom everyone simply refers to as "Paddy." It may or may not be his name; we are not able to discern that before the young Aussies give us the slip and leave us...
Preliminary Look at Bowl Lines
I do this every year right after the bowl lines come out. It's as ritualistic as Scipio's use of bukkake tags in his team previews. Well, almost. I consider it the first step in my handicapping process and it serves the purpose of identifying my own gut feeling about line value. Call it the eyeball...
