College football picks

There are too many bowl games today and most of them I could care less about. Below are my picks on the Sun Bowl, Rose Bowl, Sugar Bowl, Fiesta Bowl and BCS title game between Alabama and Texas.

Sun Bowl
Stanford 21 O.U 17 (Since Stanford Quarterback Andrew Luck may not play, this is a tough game to pick but this year OU should stand for overrated and underachieving)
Oregon 30 Ohio State 14 (The trend of the Buckeyes playing and losing to faster more skilled teams continues)
Florida 24 Cincinnati 21 (Both teams will be down but Florida has the better defense and won't let Tim Tebow go out on a losing note)
TCU 28 Boise State 14 (TCU will show that they should have been selected to play for the National Championship.

Alabama vs Texas
To blow my own horn again, before the season started I predicted these two team would be competing for the National Championship. As this season has gone on it is clear that Alabama has the stronger offensive and defensive line and a better running game. Texas Quarterback Colt McCoy is one of the most overrated quarterbacks in college football and has played below average in big games against Oklahoma and Nebraska. After all this the score in the game will be
Texas 17 Alabama 14.
The reason I'm picking Texas is simple. Before the season started I picked them to beat Alabama for the National Championship and if they do I will look like a genius.
