Bowl Pick 'Em: Final Round
Written by We Want The Lion

Well, they took different paths to get there, but both guys went 4-6 for the 12/31 and 1/1 slate of games.  Greg got off to a hot start, going 4-1 on the 31st, but he was a dismal 0-5 on New Year's Day and is one game below .500 overall.  Will avoided disaster by picking Ohio State and Florida correctly.

And now it's time for the final group of games of the season.  There are nine games left altogether, including two BCS bowls and the national title game.  Lots of questions remain.  Who will win the battle of the mid-majors, TCU or Boise?  Can Texas stop the Crimson Tide in the title game?  Will anyone watch the GMAC Bowl?  These questions, and whether either of the guys can finish over .500, will be answered over the next week.

As always, we're using Danny Sheridan's odds as our source for the lines.  Here's the list of games:
