RE: Week 14 Pick'em with Bowl Pick'em
Troy vs Georgia Southern - It appears many of GS's fans don't even want to win this game they despise the coaching staff so much. I can't expect the team to be too excited about it either. Troy will want to finish strong and get the Eagles while they are down. Troy wins 28-10.

New Mexico State vs South Alabama - USA really has something to play for and the Aggies looked lost for much of the game against App. USA wins a close one 31-28.

Louisiana vs ULM - Louisiana is coming off a huge win against the Wolves and have lots of motivation to win which they will. Cajuns win 24-20.

Georgia State vs Idaho - It's been a long season for the Panthers and an uplifting one for the Vandals. Vandals win at home 27-17.

Arkansas State vs Texas State - Wolves will be pissed off and Bobcats simply haven't been very good as of late. Wolves win 34-14.

Bowl Projections:

New Orleans Bowl
Troy

Arizona Bowl
Idaho

Camellia Bowl
Arkansas State

Cure Bowl
App State

Dollar General Bowl
USA

Las Vegas Bowl
Louisiana

How are both of you guys predicting Troy in New Orleans? Seems like a slim chance at this point.

Not really. I dont think the New Orleans bowl will have Ark State Back to Back years.

you predicted ULL to be bowl eligible. I'm not sure their attendance is down enough for the New Orleans bowl to pass on them. Southern Miss is also eligible. I'd imagine New Orleans is eyeing them as well. I hope you're right, I'm just not seeing it.

I can see a Southern Miss vs ULL match up for sure. New Orleans bowl gets 1st pick and they could pick ULL. I can see them picking ULL over Ark State but not sure they are going to take a team that is 6-6 over a 9-3 or 10-2 Troy team.

Has the New Orleans Bowl ever had a team with 10 wins yet?

Let's get real here, LA vs USM is their dream. The worst crowd the Cajuns ever brought would still be better than any other match up the NOLA Bowl ever had. The LA fans fill the hotels, restaurants, and lounges.

If we win Saturday, Cajuns can book their hotel rooms in NOLA.

As far as ten win teams, or any other power stuff, not important, filling the NOLA coffers is their number one priority. NOLA Bowl with LA is the Fifth biggest moneymaker not called Mardi Gras for the city.

No, and they probably never will until the Cajuns put up a 10 win season.

Here are Mine:

NOLA: Louisiana vs Southern Miss
Mobile: Troy vs Toledo
Camelia Arkansas State vs Central Michigan
Orlando: Appalachian State vs Central Florida
Arizona: Idaho vs North Texas
Birmingham: South Alabama vs Memphis

This is pretty spot on

You guys putting North Texas in the bowl with us kinda takes the fun out of it for me. Let's play in the Potato Bowl after all.

I'm just guessing. If MWC doesn't fill Zona, it's basically certain that a 5-7 team will end up there.

With Hawaii winning, they have enough teams to fill their bowls plus the Cactus, where they'll take a Pac 12 spot.

RE: Week 14 Pick'em with Bowl Pick'em
Key games this week: Ark St. @ Texas St., Troy @ GS, NMSU @ USA, ULL @ ULM, I'll assume Ark St. wins in all scenarios and I don't think it matters what Troy does.

Option A - USA, ULL win

NO - ULL vs. S. Miss.
DG - Troy vs. Toledo
Cam - Ark St. vs. Miami (OH)
Cure - App vs. UCF/Memphis
AZ - Idaho vs. Air Force
Birmingham - USA vs. a 6-6 P5 team

My guess is under this scenario some are picking USA to Orlando and App to Vegas, while I'd like this, I just don't see it.

Option B - ULL win

Same as above except USA doesn't go bowling

Option C - USA win

NO - Troy
DG - App
Cam - Ark st.
Cure - USA
AZ - Idaho

RE: Week 14 Pick'em with Bowl Pick'em
Well finally, the last game involving A-State that I will have any talent comparisons on thinks to my former employer.

I can say for the last time that A-State does in fact have the more talented "roster of players", between the two.

Now hence fourth you can create all the imaginary rankings, power polls, whatever, and if by chance I visit, I will not feel the need to chime in, because I will be as uninformed as most of you obviously are.

As far as A-State vs Texas State, roster talent aside, my impression is that they better hope Texas State is as bad a advertised if they want to cover the spread, because UL was worse than advertised, and they did not.

Bowl games, who cares, just congratulations to those that get an invite to one, because it was not long ago that many deserving SBC teams were assured of being left out in the cold.

Your conference has certainly come a long way.

As MAC East Champ-#2 MAC), Ohio U will probably go to the Dollar General Bowl with MACC-#1 MAC WMU in the Cotton Bowl.

traditionally, the NO bowl is all about teams from the deep south, I think a 8-3 ODU took the Bahama bowl, because they were told they had no shot at the NO bowl, I think a 6-6 Southern Miss team will play a 6-6 ULL team, with Troy going to Mobile, App to the Cure and Ark State to Montgomery.

St. Petersburg Bowl: Appalachian State versus Houston

I'm not really sure where Stewart Mandel is getting this from but it would be a great opportunity for the Sun Belt.

I would want that opportunity for sure, but there is a good chance for a blowout.
