Brut Sun Bowl
Sun Bowl Stadium, El Paso, Tx.
Oregon State vs. Pittsburgh
Date: Dec. 31
Time: 2 p.m.
TV: CBS
Line: Oregon State -2.5
About Oregon State: The Beavers almost went to the Rose Bowl. Heck, they even beat USC. Instead, they're in El Paso for the holidays. Although, I guess when you're from Corvallis, El Paso doesn't seem so bad.
Intangibles:
Mike Riley is a really nice guy: +2
Mike Riley is your coach: -2
Dennis Erickson era: -4
Chad Johnson "attended" OSU: -3
Beating USC: +4
About Pittsburgh: Dave Wannstedt took over his alma mater and has quickly led them all the way to El Paso. With the exception of RB LeSean McCoy, who somehow let Wannstedt waste his talent at Pitt, the Panthers are so boring it hurts.
Intangibles:
Peppi's North Side: +8
The 'Stache: +3
Play in Heinz Field, not near campus: -4
Pierogies: +2
Impact player: Jacquizz and James Rodgers will have the biggest impact, since neither of these miraculous midgets is playing for Oregon State. That hurts. Much like their tiny, tiny shoulders.
Little Known Fact: The Village People are performing at halftime (absolutely freaking true). Between that and the reek of Brut, this should be the Studio 54 Bowl.
The Pick: Pitt 24, Oregon State 17

You love the 'Stache. Agree, though, that Pitt is so boring to watch. They should be in the Big 10 they're so boring.
right, like UConn, Pitt and Syracuse are the pinnacle of football excitement
This game was ugly. 3-0. You have got to be kidding me. Even with LeSean McCoy, the 'Stache can't muster any offense. I actually read earlier this week on ESPN.com that Pitt OC Matt Cavanaugh should be considered for head coach openings. That's a joke.
