10. Roady’s Humanitarian Bowl – Bowling Green vs. Idaho
This game is a showdown of two teams who are happier to be playing each other than the Broncos. This is the Vandals’ first bowl game since coming to Boise for the Humanitarian Bowl in 1997.
9. Chick-fil-A Bowl – Virginia Tech vs. Tennessee
These two teams showed glimmers of greatness through the 2009 season. This game should pit two good coaches and potentially improved programs going into next season.
8. Brut Sun Bowl – Oklahoma vs. Stanford
A season of upsets for both teams. One handing them out and one receiving them like Christmas presents. Both teams have something to prove in the bowl season in terms of legitimacy.
7. San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl – Utah vs. California
These two teams have a history as conference powerhouses. Each appears on the move to reclaim their spots at the top and this bowl game could be a good starting point.
6. Capital One Bowl – Penn State vs. LSU
This should be a high powered game with two teams who believed late in the season that they were BCS bowl worthy.
5. Sugar Bowl – Florida vs. Cincinnati
Two teams with a chip on their shoulder. Both looking for redemption. One for a feeling of betrayal and another to vindicate a lost opportunity at a national championship.
4. MAACO Las Vegas Bowl – Oregon State vs. BYU
Both teams have offenses who can put up points. This should be a shootout in Sin City.
3. Rose Bowl – Oregon vs. Ohio State
Two mobile quarterbacks with an ability to make things happen outside the pocket. Expect a high scoring spectacle by two hard-nosed programs.
2. BCS National Championship – Alabama vs. Texas
Can’t keep the championship game out of the mix. Texas’ powerful offense and Bama’s brick wall defense meet each other in Pasadena.
1. Fiesta Bowl – Boise State vs. TCU
Not a homer pick. Two teams with more to win or lose than any other going into next season. Can anyone say stepping stone to a national championship?

Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

love games myself awesome post
I was studying something else about this on another blog. Interesting. Your position on it is diametrically contradicted to what I read in the first place. I am still mulling over the opposite points of view, but I’m leaning to a great extent toward yours. And regardless, that’s what is so good about contemporary democracy and the marketplace of ideas on-line.
