Meatbowl '07

Apologies for bumping BT's very worthy meat tribute down a bit with this massive post, but we're stretching the limits of your attention spans with a contest to pick every single last one of the 32 Division I-A bowl games -- the most grueling Pride Point challenge in the brief but illustrious history of Sportsmeat. For the non-BCS bowls, we're not considering point spreads, and each correct pick is worth one point. In BCS games, we're picking with the spread, and correct picks are worth two points. The grand champion gets 10 bonus points and year-long bragging rights; post your picks in a comment before the Poinsettia bowl kicks off Dec. 19.

I'm rather disappointed that the Hawaii Rainbows weren't invited to the Gaylord Hotels Music City Bowl.

And let's hand it to the Emerald Bowl, the International Bowl, the New Mexico Bowl and the Texas Bowl for not selling out to the man.
 
Unfortunately, the Emerald Bowl is for Emerald Nuts. Played in SF, it would have been another logical destination for the Hawaii Rainbows.
