the most wonderful time of the year

yes friends,

it is that time of year

aside from march madness

the next week

will make my sport loving heart be filled with joy

it's bowl week!

give or take a few days

to celebrate i thought i would provide you with my picks

please please please

do not gamble based on my picks

first:

how do i pick?

i pick on the bases of

how cute the tight end is

yes the tight end, i could care less about the quarter back

how pretty the team colors are

and

frankly if they have ever beat my team

the sooners

again,

please do not bet based on my picks!

so what games will i be watching?

i will be watching....

valero alamo bowl

    

  oklahoma state       vs                 arizona

san antonio

dec 29

8:15 kickoff

given mike stoops is the coach at arizona

and he use to coach at ou

this was a close call

but in the end

i had to choose

osu!

gotta stick with an oklahoma school

***
rose bowl 

         

wisconsin          vs             tcu

pasedena, cali

jan 1

4pm

this one is a tough one

i like tcu

with a horn frog as a mascot

who wouldn't like them

i like the tradition of wisconsin

at one time the university of wisconsin madison was voted 'most partied' university

i debated awhile on this one

but in the end

i choose

wisconsin!

again, please do not place any monetary bets on my picks

i am by no means an expert!

***

the tostitos fiesta bowl


                     

connecticut              vs            oklahoma

glendale, arizona

jan 1
7:30pm

not going to beat around the bush

i choose

the sooners!

  ***

the orange bowl

    

 stanford           vs        virgina tech

miami

jan 3

7:30 pm

again another tough one

who doesn't feel for virgina tech

and what the school has overcome

and stanford

is a program rich in tradition and philanthropy

and it is hard to choose when you don't care who wins

you just want to watch a good game.

because i know a virgina tech alum

i am choosing

***

all state sugar bowl

  

     ohio state           vs              arkansas

new orleans

jan 4

6:30

who would choose a school that calls themselves

"the" ohio state

and

 my cousin is an arkansas alum

so i choose

arkansas!

***

the cotton bowl

  

     lsu                    vs      texas a&am

Arlington, Texas

Jan 7

7pm

no decision to be made here:

i choose the aggies

i will keep my opinion about lsu to myself

***

tostitos national championship

  

oregon               vs              auburn

glendale, arizona

jan 10

7:30pm

anyone remember this game?

i do

simple
i choose:

auburn

again i reiterate

do not make any betting choices based

on my picks

i am a simple okie girl

who loves the sooners

and wears my football emotions on my sleeves

i hope your team wins!

regardless if i didn't choose them!

except for the sooners that is.

enjoy the next week of football!

i know i will!
