Tostitos Fiesta Bowl

Robert Guliano on why Boise State will win: Because they have a great offense. A high-powered offense is always dangerous no matter how god a defense is. However, TCU's defense is phenomenal, and defense does win championships. Ha, too bad they aren't playing for one.

Boise State Players to watch:

3. Green grass- I know it sounds pretty standard to the majority of America, but it is quite the spectacle in this game. Boise State is accustomed to playing on their famous blue, artificial smurf turf.

2. Kellen Moore- The quarterback has led another great Boise offense with 39 touchdowns.

1. Left Behind- No, not the widely popular Christian book series. Try the status of Monday nights bowl teams. Sure, they'll play hard, but how good will it feel to win the better-luck-next-time bowl?

Brandon Hickey on why TCU will win: This is what we have been waiting for, folks. Two undefeated teams are squaring off for the right to be called national champion. Oh wait, that's another game. But these teams are both undefeated. Everyone wants to see one of these teams play the big boys like Florida or Georgia Tech, but the BCS doesn't like that. So we get a rematch of last year's Poinsettia Bowl. I'm done. Anyway, TCU has beaten some quality teams including wins at Clemson and at BYU. The interesting matchup in this game will be Boise State's number one ranked offense against TCU's exceptional defense.

TCU Players to watch:

3. Computers-The sweet BCS computers picked this egregious matchup, which will likely go unnoticed outside of metro Fort Worth and the whole state of Idaho.

2. DE Jerry Hughes-Hughes is a monster on a defense giving up 12.4 points per game. He should be a first-round draft pick.

1. Luke Wilson-The second most famous Wilson brother is a Horned Frog. He also thinks that AT&T is better than Verizon, which is obviously not true. My Verizon map must be in his way.

The compromise: Both teams fight for their respective undefeated seasons and possible but implausible national championship, but Boise edges the Frogs in a 35-34 thriller.
