The Solid Verbal: Previewing even MORE bowls (pt 3)

On the latest bowl previewaganza, let’s address the following questions:

• Ahead of their Holiday Bowl matchup with Washington State, where did the Minnesota player boycott go wrong?

• Is there anything about Minnesota’s schedule that tells anyone anything about how they might fare against the Cougars?

• How is this year’s Boise State team different than previous versions and can a depleted, sliding Baylor team take advantage?

• Pitt looks superior to Northwestern in nearly every way... does it matter?

• Where might Miami be able to take advantage of a balanced West Virginia team, and is Brad Kaaya ready to declare for the NFL?

• Is it possible to gauge Indiana’s current place with a new coach as they prepare to take on a flawed, but cohesive Utah team?

• Even with a huge talent and athleticism gap everywhere, why is it just safer to avoid being seduced by Texas A&M and rather, feel good about Kansas State?

• Can Temple overcome losing their head coach ahead of a tricky matchup against Wake Forest (ok, the Wake defense)?

...and much more!
