Belk Bowl
Top Pick
Louisville Pk over NC St
Unofficial Picks
Independence Bowl
Missouri/NC St over 53.5
Little Ceasars Bowl
Western Michigan +3 vs Purdue
Louisville- The Cardinals overcame a slow start and were quite a force in the Big East the 2nd half of the season. They have bought into their head coach Charlie Strong's philosophy and have mad the transition from offensive oriented team to a very good defensive team with a solid offense.
NC State had a lackluster season and never got the type of play from their qb position once Russell Wilson left the program. They had a signature victory over Clemson but I saw that game as more of a Clemson let down than an NC State win. They do have some talent on their team but it has not seem to come together yet.
This should be a pretty entertaining game to watch and I like L'ville to have the intangible edge of continuing their strong second half of the season with a win in this one.
Missouri/NC- Not too sure what you can count on with either the Tigers or Tarheels in this one. There is probably not a lot at stake for either team and they can play without a lot of pressure- may translate to points...maybe.
Western Michigan- They have a bit of a home field advantage which gives them a slight edge.
