Fiesta Bowl


Jan. 2, 2008

Prediction: Texas vs. Wisconsin

BCS (Big 12 champion if available) vs. BCS

Analysis:

Oklahoma is Texas's biggest obstacle in winning the Big 12, but Texas returns more experienced starters at the skill positions than Oklahoma and, thus, has the edge. The Longhorns return quarterback Colt McCoy (along with his 29 t0 7 touchdown to interception ratio), McCoy's favorite target in Limas Sweed, and running back Jamaal Charles.

Wisconsin loses their all-time winningest quarterback in school history and first team All-American left tackle Joe Thomas, but they still return an experienced team with an outstanding defense. Young head coach Bret Bielema is known for shaping defenses and has plenty to work with including ultra-talented cornerback Jack Ikegwuono and linebacker Jonathan Casillas.
