Tsunami · December 2005

Toughest and Easiest SOS by BCS conference ACC Toughest - North Carolina: How good is Matt Baker? He attempts to replace UNC's all-time passer Darian Durant, so we'll find out. Easiest - Boston College: No wonder they have a shot at getting to the first ever Dr. Pepper ACC Championship Game. Big East Toughest - Syracuse: Seeing the writing on the wall? Another season with ex-head coach Paul Pasqualoni would have only been good for yet another six win season under this scenario. Easiest - Louisville: Reminds us of WVU last year about this time. Big Ten Toughest - Ohio State: September 10th game (in Columbus) versus Texas represents the nation's best cross-conference match up. Easiest - Purdue: no Ohio State, no Michigan, home versus Iowa and closing with Indiana and Illinois. Surprise team? Big XII Toughest - Oklahoma State: These days it does not help to be hanging out down South with Norman and Austin. Easiest - Iowa State: The Cyclones stay in a race where the North Division winner maintains a 7-4 record. Pac Ten Toughest - UCLA: Karl Dorrell needs to win in order to get off the hot seat. He has a shot with the talent and experience on the roster. Schedule-wise...he better brush off the résumé. Easiest - USC: The Trojans do not play themselves, which hurts their rating. SEC Toughest - Arkansas: Good for season ticket holders? Maybe not, as USC, Alabama, Georgia and LSU are on the road. Easiest - Auburn: Dare we say 13-0 and no National Championship Banner? C'mon, are there truly any easy schedules in this league?

--Paterno has a 6-1 edge against Bowden, beating him each time when he coached at West Virginia in the early 1970s. Bowden's only win over Joe Pa was a 24-17 triumph in the 1990 Blockbuster Bowl. --Bowden owns a 19-8-1 record in bowl games, while Paterno is 20-10-1. --The Outback Bowl in Tampa will be a rematch of the Capital One Bowl two years ago. Iowa destroyed Florida 37-17 in Orlando that day. The Gators are three-point favorites this year even though they haven't won a bowl game since thumping Maryland 56-13 in Steve Spurrier's final game as head coach in the 2001 Orange Bowl. We remember because we were there. --Notre Dame has lost seven consecutive bowl games. --Michigan had been to a January bowl game nine straight times, but that run will end when it plays Nebraska at the Alamo Bowl in San Antonio on Dec. 28. The Cornhuskers are back in the postseason after missing a bowl game last year for the first time since 1968. --When you talk about contrasting styles, Texas Tech and Alabama are polar opposites. The matchup between 'Bama's defense and the Red Raiders offense should be interesting to watch. --Bettors should keep their eyes on the status of three banged-up quarterbacks, Colorado's Joel Klatt, Clemson's Charlie Whitehurst and LSU's JaMarcus Russell. All three are "questionable" at this point. --Will some small school PLEASE hire Jim Donnan so that we don't have to listen to him on television anymore. The former coach at Georgia and Marshall is absolutely abysmal as a football analyst. --If there was a playoff system, I'd give Georgia and Auburn a puncher's chance against anybody.
