Just thought everyone might want to look this over. Whether you agree or not is totally personal (since obviously your team is going to be a must see!) but for all the others, here is someone else's view on what bowl games are worth your time, and what ones would be the perfect time to plan the family outing around.

FOXSports.com SEC Predictions:

Cotton: Alabama 23 Texas Tech 21 {agree, close game with Bama edge}
Sugar: Georgia 17 West Virginia 15 {are you kidding me? UGA will blow them out}
Peach: Miami 19 LSU 7 {idk the JR status so...???? could be possible}
Outback: Florida 23 Iowa 20 {UF should win but Iowa won't score 20, that's for sure}
Capital One: Auburn 23 Wisconsin {Auburn is going to confuse this team to a large victory}
Independence: South Carolina 19 Missouri 13 {Again, I see it being a larger margin by SC}

I think West Virginia will suprise Georgia and keep this one close, Remember Georgia has two teams, one that will blow u out and one that will let a lesser team hang around. I think Auburn and USC should win convincingly, I dont think Missouri or Wisconsin have a team that can compete. Texas Tech might get Bama if Bama cant find a way to come up with some points, As good as Bama's D is TT will more than likely put up 24. Lsu is better than they looked against Georgia and I think they prove that against a Miami team void of playmakers.

Interesting article.

From the SEC point of view, I think the Auburn/Wisconsin game is much more interesting than the Alabama/Texas Tech game, especially if Prothro is still out.

A whomping of the Badgers by the Barners will do a lot to prove their point that they deserve more respect.

I've been forced to watch a handful of Wisconsin games this year and they have Brian Calhoun and that's it in terms of offense. Orr is a decent enough WR but if you stop Calhoun, you stop Wisconsin...it's really that simple. I expect Auburn to crush the Badgers, myself.

I think the thing that keeps the Bama game interesting is just to see how well our defense can handle the fast-paced, big-play based offense of Tech. They don't have much of a defense, so hopefully we'll actually see our offense show up again. :p

As for Prothro, that's not even a question mark at this point, it's a definite no-go. He'll be back towards the end of spring at the best.

Miami, excuse me, the "U", has blown their wad this year in Blacksburg. If Russell is back, they won't hang around with LSU. Bama/TT and WVA/UGA will be closer, I think.

I think as far as SEC bowls, you couldn't ask for much better matchups. They are all pretty good and should provide a way for us to show our overall conference strength.
