(9)Boise State Broncos vs (11)TCU Horned Frogs
San Diego
Qualcom Stadium
Tuesday, Dec. 23
ESPN, 8 p.m. ET
Spread:  TCU -2.5
Total:  46

My Pick:  This could be one of the better non BCS Bowls this year between 12-0 Boise State and 10-2 TCU.  While Boise State has found alot of success on the ground via RB’s Ian Johnson and Jeremy Avery, against the stingy top rated TCU run defense they will have to find another way, which means more pressure on freshman QB Kellen Moore to spread the offense out and keep the Horned Frogs defense guessing.  TCU is no slouch when it comes to offense either, but they have a more rounded approach using WR Jimmy Young as their go to guy and then mixing it up with RB’s Joseph Turner and Aaron Brown who usually split carries.  So basically you have a high flying run offense versus the #2 defense in the country and both teams will have to tweak their games in order to adjust.  The Broncos can definitely get the ball going through the air its just a matter of whether or not their defense can stop the multiple weapons of the Horned Frogs.  With the spread being so low I have to take the team with the most overall offense and that means that the Broncos should get it done, take the points, but if your a bit weary then at least buy it up to +3.
