ROSE BOWL Thread - where is the money ?

ROSE BOWL Thread - where is the money ? without ALF here to help us, we all have to meld minds here, sure Badgers motivated after last years loss, and usually do well in Rose Bowl, but Oregon also equally motivated and havent won rose bowl in modern era... Is this line going to go to 7 ? or drop ? will the GIRTH or badgers get BIGGER over holidays and help Oregons Speed? Can Chip kelley finnally get it done ? any input is appreciated... good luck to us all

seems like every tout so far is on Wisconsin

"any input is appreciated... good luck to us all" 256 Oreg -6 It''s the Rose Bowl curse for Big 10 teams - those cheese balls have never seen that many beautiful girls in their lives - - (along with sunshine they haven't seen in 3 months & 70 degree weather) - - lk

Hate taking faves, but Oregon clear right side unless you believe USC game was indicative of Oregon's D weakness and that Toon can emulate Woods. I don't and thus you have a squad that held Cam's crew to 22 last year and have SOS, YPP, speed and coaching advantages. Wisky D is nowhere near as good as either Auburn's nor Ohio State's the year before. Ducks by 17

I believe that Wis has a chance to cover and even win outright. Oregon is a "timing" offense and their machine gun approach will not function as well with the time off since their last game. You can practice it all you want but it's still not the same as "live" football. I believe, that is one of the main reasons Kelly's Oregon teams have not faired nearly as well in bowl games as they do in the regular season. I also believe Wis will not be distracted and unfocused as they were last year in southern California. This has been a major point of emphasis for Bielema and his coaches.

GO WEST COAST!!!!

i agree, AUB caught a HUGE break with that blown non blown wistle call at the end... oregon hung in with em..never quit..THIS oregon team is just as good as last years.. im not sure badgers are as good as aub last yr
