College Football Bowl Picks, Week 2

Week 1 found myself going 5-2.

Edwin Quarles, who logged his picks in the comments area, also went 5-2.

I almost typed, "Now if I could run as fast as Edwin."

But even though going faster over a given distance is the object of our sport, having fun and still doing well means more to me.

When it all becomes too much of a hassle, it will be time for me to find another hobby!

Now on to the picks!

My prediction: Central Michigan over Middle Tennessee State
Final score: Central Michigan 31, Middle Tennessee State 14 (6-2 thanks to the Chippewas)
