I won one! I finally get a win! First one in six games, and first since 5:00 pm yesterday! Woo-hoo! Vegas, baby!
The Las Vegas Bowl featured the Utah Utes (10-2) of the Big12 against the Nebraska Cornhuskers (7-5) of the Big10. I don't normally take Mormon teams, but I went with Utah as a whopping 15½-point favorite based on win-loss records (what's a five-loss team even doing in the bowls?).
It worked - Utah won, 44-22, covered the spread, and there were no scripted late comebacks or sudden rash of turnovers in the fourth to give the illusion of drama. I got a win, fair and square. However, I'm only 12-21, nine games below .500, and with only 11 games left this season, I'm gonna have to go at least 9-2 down the stretch to even break even, starting with Ohio State as a winner over Miami with no points (pick 'em) in the Cotton Bowl, starting shortly.
Wish me luck.
