Konica Minolta Gator Bowl
Municipal Stadium, Jacksonville, Fla.
West Virginia vs. Florida State
Date: Jan. 1
Time: 1 p.m.
TV: CBS
Line: West Virginia -2.5
About West Virginia (9-3): The Mountaineers of the sweater-vested and slightly confused Bill Stewart have been very close to being very good. They've also been very close to being very bad. Which I guess puts them about where they should be.
Intangibles:
Coach not retiring: -2
Chick as mountaineer: +2
Pat Lazear rap sheet: (redacted)
About Florida State (6-6): Bobby Bowwden is retiring (sniff, sniff) - about eight years too late of course. The 'Noles finally put together a somewhat effective offense this year and the pass defense sucked. geesh. Of course, FSU has no business being in this game but due to St. Bobby's "retirement" road show, they get a New Year's Day Bowl.
Intangibles:
Terry Bowden: -1
Tommy Bowden: -2
Jeff Bowden: -3
Dadgum: -1
Impact player: Noel Devine. This midget needs to get the ball more. Gotta feed the kids, ya know?
Bowl slogan: "We'll fill the seats no matter how ridiculous it may seem."
Little known fact: Chris Rix no longer plays for Florida State. I miss those days.
Watchability (1-5): 2.8
The pick: Florida State 28, West Virginia 24

Florida State is always a pleasure to watch. I have been an FSU fan for as long as I can remember, and would not have it any other way. I think they are always worth watching, and that College Football is 100% more interesting than any Professional team playing today.
