    ESPN has this new game called College Bowl Mania where not only do you pick the winner but you order your 32 winners from most confident to least confident. So if your most confident team wins, I think you get 32 points, your least confident yields 1 point. Pretty cool concept.

    Mark May picks LSU and he placed his confidence level as 3rd most confident out of any of the bowl winners. He cited LSU's mobile quarterbacks, spread offense, home field advantage, and healed up defense as being way too much for Ohio State.

    I concur.

    I'm watching that. Put the Tigers at a 30 out of 32 confidence to win. Say what you want about May but he does his homework. A healthy LSU team makes ALL the difference.:geaux: :geaux: :geaux: :geaux: :geaux: :geaux: :geaux:

    Im watching this too....my 1st thought when he said that was "man this dude flip flops his opinion from one week to the next more than any other analyst on TV".

    This is why I take this show for its entertainment value....no fun in everyone agreeing on everything. I generally like all the college football analyst on college gameday with the exception of spittin lou....that dudes just a moron...and I think he picked LSU in the NCG...dunno

    I feel pretty good about this game, but OSU is too good for the Tigers to allow them to hang around. They need to score early and often. This could be another blowout of OSU or another nail biter. With all due respect to OSU, if the Tigers get on top of them in a hurry, they're gonna be in deep Kimchi. My pick...Tigers at +14 (hope I,m right)

    Mark May is the best out of the crappy people on ESPN (which is not saying much), but he lost credibility when he jumped on OU's bandwagon last Saturday night sighting LSU lost their last regular season game while OU finished strong. If he had done his homework, he would have noticed they lost to TTech just the week prior to LSU losing to Arkansas.

    Well America votes LSU 74 percent vs OSU 26 %, placing this as their 7th most confident bowl winner.

    The people have spoken!
