Emerald Bowl

Dec. 28, 2007

8:30 EST, San Francisco, Cal., ESPN

Prediction: Oregon vs. Boston College

Pac-10 no. 5 vs. ACC no. 7

Analysis:

The original Bowl Projection opinion was that Boston College wouldn't even make it to a bowl game this year. Boy were we wrong. And I'm not sure why we were so negative on B.C. They handled last year's ACC champion in Wake Forest in week one. And Matt Ryan looks good at quarterback. Jeff Jagodzinski is doing a nice job so far. Do you think that Tom O'Brien is second guessing his move to NC State?

Oregon handled Houston in the season opener. Week two will be an even better barometer or how well the season will go for the Ducks. Will Michigan bounce back after getting beat by Appalachian State? Or can Oregon hand the Wolverines the second straight home loss to open the season. One would think that if Appalachian State can do it, so could Oregon.
