Poinsettia Bowl, Dec 19, San Diego

TCU players are fired up to be in this somewhat obscure bowl, because the greatest Horned Frog since Bob Lilly plays home games in this stadium.....LaDanian Tomlinson.

TCU got beat by BYU, Utah in consecutive weeks in September and early October, but are 7-0 in last seven games (6-1 against spread), winning last three games by 24+ points each. They're well-balanced on offense and have a senior QB in Ballard. Their defense had 11 takeaways last four games

Northern Illinois lost three MAC games, and also 24-14 at Iowa and 35-12 at Ohio State; they have 5-7 RB Wolfe, but struggled passing ball for much of season; they were just 15-69 (21.7%) on third down in their losses (48.8% in wins). When Huskies threw ball well, they had success, but TCU has strong defense, so that couldbe problem in this game.

Underdog is 3-1-1 in TCU bowl games the last six years, with Frogs 2-3 SU, winning two of last three; NIU beat Troy 34-21 in bowl game two years ago. TCU will be focused, if only because of LT's presence. With Frogs having eight less days off to get rusty here, I would lean towards laying points with TCU.

Tips and Trends



Poinsettia Bowl - Northern Illinois vs. TCU (ESPN2 | 8 PM ET)

*NIU RB Garrett Wolfe led the nation in rushing with 1,900 yards (158.3 per game), but insiders believe he will struggle against the fourth-best rushing defense in the country. The Horned Frogs allowed just 67.6 rushing yards per game and only 2.4 yards per carry. BIG EDGE: TCU

*Motivation could be a key in this one, as both schools had higher preseason expectations. Who is more disappointed and more excited to be here? That could be the deciding factor, with Northern Illinois playing in its first bowl game since 2004. The Huskies are 3-4 all-time in bowl games compared to the Horned Frogs, who are 8-12-1. TCU has won 7 in a row, outscoring its opponents 244-79 during the run. EDGE: TCU

*TCU is 8-1 ATS last 9 games vs. teams with a winning record.

*TCU is 16-5 ATS last 21 games overall.

*UNDER is 6-1 in NIU's last 7 games.

*OVER is 4-0 in TCU's last 4 games.

This week is tricky time, as teams still experimenting with an eye to conference play, and also teams are getting guys eligible after first semester ends. We get past Christmas, and things get to be lot more fun. Good coaches will have a rotation pretty much set once they get close to New Year's.
