Maaco Bowl Game Day Preview: Broncos vs. Sun Devils
Arizona State (6-6 OA 4-5 Pac-12) is going to allow Dennis Erickson to stroll the sidelines for his final game as the Sun Devils Head Coach – after they fired him on November 28, 2011. NCAA College Football is weird that way. Arizona State imploded as they dropped their final four contests.
Boise State (11-1 OA 6-1 MWC) kicked themselves out of the Bowl Championship Series. The Broncos, who were 5th in the Nation, watched a 39-yard field goal try hook wide right with no time left on the clock. That 36-35 loss, to a good TCU Horned Frogs team, cost them a BCS Bowl Game.
Maaco Bowl Las Vegas Betting Odds: Boise State vs. Arizona Free Pick
Kickoff for this College Football Bowl betting action is slated for Thursday, December 22, 2011, at 8:00 PM ET from Sam Boyd Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada. Will the Sun Devils rise up for their fired Coach? This game has a similar feel to the Pac-12 Championship Game back on December 12.
Boise State had to settle for the Maaco Bowl last year as well. They went into Sam Boyd Stadium and squashed Utah 26-3. The loss snapped the Utes nine game Bowl Season winning streak.
Arizona State last played a postseason game in the 2007 Holiday Bowl. After two late season losses pushed them out of the National Champion race, the Sun Devils went to sunny San Diego. There they got pummeled in a 52-34 loss to the Texas Longhorns. It’s two different teams, but these kids eventually run out of gas. The Sun Devils will play hard – for thee quarters most likely.
Boise State wants to stick it to the BCS Brass. The down trodden Sun Devils will get burnt here!
