Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 1916392, member: 289"] For the Pesci Bowl: Besides keeping track of the current contenders for the college football play, for the last couple of years I have been imagining something I call the Pesci Bowl- a bowl game between the two best teams who were unable to make the playoff besides excellent records because their schedules were not considered “big time”. In current parlance, that would mean teams that aren’t in the “Power Five” conferences. I’ve named the fictional event after actor Joe Pesci, a vertically challenged but feisty actor we’ve seen in many films, especially “Goodfellas” and “Casino”. I’ve listed the non-power Five teams with no or one loss with the teams they have left to play on their schedules that are also on the list. BOISE STATE is 6-0 and will be playing no one on this list the rest of the way WESTERN MICHIGAN is 7-0 and will be playing: Toledo (5-1) on 11/25 at home HOUSTON is 6-1 and will be playing: (They also play Louisville on 11/17 at home) At Memphis (5-1) on 11/25 SOUTH FLORIDA is 6-1 and will be playing: Navy (4-1) on 10/28 at home At Memphis (5-1) on 11/12 NAVY is 4-1 and will be playing: Memphis (5-1) on 10/22 at home At South Florida (6-1) on 10/28 MEMPHIS is 5-1 and will be playing: At Navy (4-1) on 10/22 South Florida (6-1) on 11/12 at home Houston (6-1) on 11/25 at home TOLEDO is 5-1 and will be playing: At Western Michigan (7-0) on 11/25 SAN DIEGO STATE is 5-1 and will be playing no one on this list. TROY is 5-1 and will be playing no one on this list. Comments: I think Boise State, Houston, Navy and South Florida are the best teams on this list, although Western Michigan could run the table and if they did I might have to put them in over a one loss team. Boise State has the easiest road the rest of the way although the flyboys will be primed for an upset. Memphis is the least likely teams to remain on this list: they have three big games left and all three of Tulsa’s are on the road. [/QUOTE]
