This will be my bowl thread. I will update any picks and plays throughout the bowl season in this thread. Any and all comments, insights, and bashes are welcome.

Dec. 20
Navy/Utah U 65 + Utah -8, parlay. 1 unit to make 3.

this total has dropped a couple points, but i still like the under. i think Utah will be prepared for Navy's option attack, and since Navy doesn't do much else, i think they will have trouble scoring much in this game. Navy has a strong history in the Poinsettia, but i think the Utes roll in this one. tough game for Navy to perform will their coach leaving for the ACC.

Utah 35
Navy 17

added Navy U 27 1.1 units to make 1.

i've already been bailed out a couple of times w/ a fumble at the 2, and a missed fg...i may look for a middle at halftime, if Utah can hold on 'til then...

saw some opportunity w/ Navy Over 10.5 for the second half, so i hammered it w/ 5 units. just think Navy shot itself in the foot a couple times in the first, otherwise this scoreline could look MUCH different. have an opportunity for a middle, but don't think it'll happen.

NO WAY THAT JUST HAPPENED!!!!!!!!!

after an improbable no call on the touchback, then Navy stuffed on 4th down from their own 8, Utah marches in for the cover and me finishing the night up 9 units including an unfathomable middle...

not soooooooooo fast! Navy's anemic passing game somehow throws for a 65 yard TD pass to screw up my parlay AND Navy under 27...

wow that hurts.

overall, i'll take finishing the night up 2.9 units overall. just glad i stuck to my guns and hammered that 2nd half opportunity.
