CHECK THIS OUT....13-2 SO FAR IN BOWLS......
SOMETHING INTERESTING I FOUND WHILE SURFING THE NET.
PLAY ON TEAMS THAT HAVE A BETTER PASSING DEFENSE....13-2 SO FAR...GO FIGURE......
HERE IT IS:
If you like the sound of that, you need to play:
Alabama
Purdue
Louisville
Miami
Why? Because 13 of 14 games (with Troy pending and LEADING 14-0) have been won by the team with the better Pass Defense! Right off the NCAA stats website. Wyoming covered a 12 point spread and actually gave up an average of 213.91 to UCLA's 213.18. The only loser? UTEP, by a single point (+4, lost 33-28).
GL to any who choose to fade this(!!)
Stats for Friday (YPG in parentheses):

AS YOU WILL NOTICE EVERY WINNER IN THE BOWLS SO FAR HAD THE BETTER PASS-D, even wyoming where the pass-d was = to ucla's but wyoming had better rush D and they were at +12 in the spread....look for yourself
