Maze Bowl Vol. 3

They say to save your job you need to win a level three bowl game at least. Well we are now in level three bowl games so for those trying to save their jobs the time is now. Give it your all and save yourselves, for the rest of you, just give it your all and get some silverware for the trophy cabinet.

We have a great matchup in this one people. Boston College and Colorado, coach laswell vs coach lyonzfan37. Two great coaches and programs locking horns in this one. Who do you put your money on? Coach laswell leads the series between the two but coach lyonzfan has elevated the program to new heights. He has taken his squad to the conference title game were he has found a spirited Sooners team. They have lost the game but have put up good fights. Coach laswell lost his conference title game this year, it was their third loss of the season. They have had a good season and they want to have a bowl win to cap the season. I am going to go with my fellow Big 12 coach, I think he will be able to pull it off in this one.

First time meeting alert. We have another Colorado school and it is the state school with coach chainsaw4 at the helm. He is going up against the Georgia Bulldogs with coach 2000champou leading them. Georgia as a school leads the series against Colorado State, 5-0. I am sure coach chainsaw wants to change that and get is school on the board. The Georgia coach has been at his school for 6 seasons now and he has had up and down seasons, of the 4 bowls he has been to, he has only lost one, so we know he knows what to do on the big stage. He plays in a tough conference but finds ways to win games, sign of a good coach right there. His opposite number is going to be playing in his fourth straight bowl game. He won his last bowl game against the Aggies, read what you want into that. Coach chainsaw went through the pack Big East so we know he can handle pressure, but will he be able to handle bowl game pressure? This is a tough one to pick a winner so can I go with a draw/tie? I think we might go to OT in this one. Once we get there I see Georgia winning, but a small margin.

I have UCLA with awaskow winning this one. I know I haven’t said why but stay with me. They have access to better talent in my view in the sunshine of southern Cali. I know you could say Middle Tennessee with sgawrys also have access to plenty of talent in the south but the south is packed with coaches. The southern school have too many BCS school around them to battle for talent and this makes them the underdog in this one for me. This lack of talent will in the end cost them the game. The coaches have played once before and the UCLA coach won it and I think he will make it 2-0 in their series.

Coach saintjo and his Akron team will be under the cosh against coach allen129 and his Rutgers teams. I know this is the first meeting between the coaches but the talent levels will come through and carry Rutgers to the win. The only chance Akron has in my view is to play a perfect game in all three phases of the game, which is tough. Coach saintjo will have to have perfect gameplans to stop Rutgers and he has a few games to look at to get an idea of how to win this one. He then needs to hope that the boys execute well. Rutgers will also have to be on their “A” game because Akron knows how to win games too.

Coach potter444 leads the Gators against coach thegruntboy and his West Virginia team. This is the first meeting between the coaches and I think we should expect fireworks in this one. These are good coaches who know what they are doing and they have been through a tough schedule this year and they both want to cap it with a trophy. This is the first post season appearance for coach thegruntboy with his new team and I am sure they want to make the most of it but they go up against a talented former national champion team. I think the difference in talent level will allow the Gators to win this matchup. The Gators coach has the ability to win a national championship so we know he knows what he is doing. Thegruntboy has built his team up and looks for a signature win at a big stage and this is the one to do it in but I think they will fall short.

If you have got to 5 why not go for 6, I’m talking about 6 wins. The Irish will try to give their coach a 6th win against the Washington coach. The two have played 5 times and coach cfbfan18 has beaten coach cjl9652 5 times. He has him in his pocket and knows how to extract a W out of him. This is not good news for Washington, I think they will lose this one.

I think all they can hope for is a close game, if they are able to stay in the game that gives them a chance of maybe sneaking a win for their coach. If the Washington team loses this one they will be saying goodbye to their coach, though he can apply back and maybe get his team back. It would be a shame for him to go because he has built himself a nice program but he gets to play the legendary jasonfreeman every year. If he can’t get his job back, I invite him to apply to Texas Tech, nice location in Texas with plenty of talent around and also a lot of bowl money come recruiting season.

This will be the halfway point in the post season games and I hope everyone is having fun. We have had a few good games and some blowouts. We have had some fates sealed by the results and some have saved themselves. Don’t forget to check the playoffs to see how the other coaches are going. I always keep an eye out for the playoffs, can always pick some great tricks from coaches in playoffs. Until the next one take it easy people.
