Let’s Go Bowling
by Marc Lawrence
It’s that time of the year where we head to the alleys and look to knock down anything in our path. No, we’re not talking street gangs or the PBA. It’s the last leg of the 2009 College Football season and with it the last chance to stuff the stockings for the holidays.
With that, let spin through the college football games on tap this week. From the Playbook College Bowl Stat Report, here are some of the good, bad and ugly stats and trends. All records are ATS unless noted otherwise. We’ll be back next Thursday with Round Two…
