Raising hand here as I was on that one LOL Sick beat but hey that goes with what we do as gamblers

Have to go against our Canes in this one. We are a DOCUMENTED 2-0 in Miami games this year - one play on - one fade...Super pumped for next yr - have a long way to go to get to Florida St or Clemson level but at least there is some hope.
Miami finished the season strong and were 4-1 under interim HC...On the surface no big deal to end beating GT and Pitt - but this was after the UNC debacle and they could have packed it in. Kaayaaayyaaa has always impressed us hopefully next year he will have a better supporting cast - running game - and D - to do some special things. Overall we understand they make their hay in the passing game - but not thrilled about their #116 ranking rushing the ball and #107 against the run - our MATH INSIDERS but those numbers added together to give you 225 and no way no how Miami has ever ranked that poorly in those important categories collectively at least in the last 30-40 yrs....They also take a lot of penalties which is awesome - and they have two defenders suspended for the bowl game. They do not get much PENETRATION 12th in the ACC in TFL and #11 D in the ACC...They will move the ball same but they are not consistent enough imo on offense to keep up with a very efficient Wash St offense who should have no problem with the Miami D. They have only turned it over mind you 11 times all yr so a clean game gives them a legit shot to pull the upset but not sure that is gonna happen. Statistically - the Miami D not bad vs the pass but they faced 4 decent QBs in our eyes - gave up 33 34 58 59 to neb cincy clemson unc - maybe we are forgetting somebody but for real like for real - think their secondary can be torched.
Speaking of torched. The human SECONDARY TORCH Luke Falk was one of the most impressive players we watched this year - only got to see him a couple of times but WOW what a fine looking SPECIMEN....Yes he missed the Apple Cup with concussion symptoms but is apparently all systems go for this one. Remember in biology class when you dissected that bullfrog and threw the guts at the annoying kid with the weird lip thing? Well this dissection should be fun to watch we think Falk goes nuts. If he somehow misses some time - the backup got some good work in against the Huskies and some bowl practice reps. As far as the Wash St D goes - it all starts with - GENTLEMEN PUT YOUR HANDS TOGETHER FOR DESTINY VAEAO who is part of a very underrated front 7 and they have improved significantly from last yr...Think the Wash St D makes 1 or 2 more plays than the Miami D.
2 final notes. (A) weather. expected to cold with some rain - and a winter storm coming shortly after the game. Miami is not going to like that - sorry - anyone remember how they came out like arctic explorers all bundled up in this game a couple yrs ago vs ND did not want to play...Maybe not the same - but fool us once - shame on you - fool us twice - shame on us - something like that...Wash St edge even with their passing attack in any kind of non-Florida like conditions imo. (B) motivation - neither team has won a bowl game in forever. Wash St only 2 this decade and the last one in 2003. Miami has next yr to look forward to big time. Wash St wants this one more imo. HC Leach especially. Anyone who remembers how he butchered the final minutes of the Col St bowl game a couple years ago is probably still puking in a gutter somewhere. Full focus coming on Saturday.

This one should be a lot of fun. Of course sometimes the game does not meet expectations but hopefully the game delivers.
Indiana's high powered offense has been good enough to keep them in games with some very good teams. Yes - they were missing some players early on - but for real guys - like for real - hard to ignore the fact that they are ranked #120 in defense and gave up tons of points from the start of the year to the finish. Now their QB Sudfeld is excellent - and only 5 int in over 360 attempts very impressive - solid OL - and Howard is a stud RB BUT we believe he is out for this one....never fear tho - Redding picked up the slack in the last couple of games and do not think the Hoosiers miss a beat on offense. They are gonna score. Star Duke S Cash is out and that cannot help although at least Duke had some practice time without him. Supporters will point to close losses to very good teams - Michigan in ot - ohio st by 7 - close to mich st for most of the game - iowa by 8....but what is the theme you notice? THATS A BINGO - they lost all those games. And while Duke is not in the same area code as those teams - they still lost 6 games. Did beat WK at home and VT away in seemingly 8 OT. They won 4 - lost 6 - then won 2.
Duke finished the season in a tailspin after the Miami fix - and hey - nobody is happy when Duke gets the shaft - lost 4 in a row but finished with a win over powerhouse Wake Forest. Here is the thing - QB Sirk is very good and can run the ball extremely well. Duke is very balanced on offense and we do not see the Hoosier D putting up much resistance either. Sirk should have a huge game.
Final notes (A) we give Duke the HC edge. Yes Duke has lost 3 straight BG under his watch but they were big dogs in all of those games and still competed well in all of them. They have not won a BG since the early 60s. Their entire season can be worth it if they beat Indiana which they have to feel is possible compared to the teams they have lined up against recently in BG. (B) MEGALOCKS has to be on the all-time leaderboard for human beings that have actually WITNESSED an Indiana bowl game - yes sir - who can forget the 1990 PEACH BOWL vs Auburn at the old Fulton Country Stadium - yes Megalocks was there with his posse - memories are so thick we have to brush them away from our face.....Their last bowl win was the epic 1991 Copper Bowl vs Baylor so Indiana will also be very motivated to get the win.
Summary. Lean Indiana. Still deciding if we are gonna add it or not. Just really worried about their D even tho they should torch duke through the air. Would feel better catching a FG and not laying it. Lean to the over as well but not interested in a number that has moved into the low 70s.

let us NOT forget the 2 losing picks so far. Why not summarize again. I mean TWO games lost? Brutal. We could go into hiding for months or a year and come back pretending it never happened but that has never been our style.
Temple - Lost. Loser. Lost big. Really lost.
South Florida - Loser Loser Lost Loser
Wash St goes today !
GL everyone still deciding on Indiana....Looking at UCLA game later.

Merry XMASS champ! Any concern that Gabe Marx who is main big play threat for Coug's offense is out? Will the other WR's be able to step up? Thinking of hammering this game. My offshore line is Cougs-2. On a 1 to 10 scale how would you rate this play.
