Oh, man...yesterday did not go well at all. Southern Miss covered with their itty-bitty half point, New Mexico wins their first bowl game in 46 years and who knew that U.C.L.A.'s kicker would cover with not one, but two, field goals from 50+...but have a 25-yarder blocked to lose? It's an embarrassing 1-4 start for The Diner. Alas, we will march on, undeterred!
Boise State vs. East Carolina (+10.5) in the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl: I've got friends who live in Hawaii, who, if they knew that the folks at Sheraton didn't put the apostrophe in "Hawai'i," they'd be pretty bitter about it. But, like most folks who live in Hawai'i, they're engrossed in more interesting things to do than college football games. Anyway, like most college football fans, I have last year's Boise State BCS images on my hard-drive, and can't fathom how they won't score a bunch of points on the Pirates. Granted ECU held VaTech to 17, but they gave up 48 to West Virginia. My guess is that, while Boise State doesn't have the same energy or enthusiasm of last year's game against OU, they'll be able to score a bunch against a happy-to-celebrate-Christmas-in-Hawai'i East Carolina team. Diner Prediction: Boise State 38, East Carolina 24
