Rice -4 is my GOM#1 for the Bowl Season -
Not only is Troy the LOWEST RANKED team in the all of the
bowls (103rd Per Sagarin) - Troy also has the weakest SOS
(121st per Sagarin) of all teams in the bowls. Shit, there's only
119 D-1A teams and Troy's schedule strength is 121st?
Granted, Rice is not a highly rated team either, however
they are rated much higher (64 vs. 103 per Sagarin) and
played a stonger SOS (63rd) than many other bowl teams
such as Clemson, VaTech, GaTech and Wisconsin.
In additon, this is Rice's first bowl game in a long long time
and they should be psyched.
Sometimes you don't bet on a team - You bet against a team.
If Sagarin says Troy is the weakest team in the all 32 bowls
and they also had the weakest schedule - You think I'm going to bet money on them --- No Frickin Way!!!!
