Poinsettia Bowl

Dec. 20, 2007

9 p.m. EST, San Diego, Calif., ESPN

Prediction: Navy vs. Utah

Navy/at large vs. Mountain West

Analysis:

With BYU's win against a Pac10 team and Utah's loss against a Pac10 team, BYU leapfrogs Utah to compete in the Armed Forces Bowl against another Pac10 opponent. Utah still gets a bowl game, but they'll have to face Navy in the Poinsettia Bowl.

Navy's handling of Temple shows they should finish with a winning record this season. Should they have lost, a winning season might have been in question. Adam Ballard won't let this team down.
