Motor City Bowl Preview...Does Anyone Even Care?


Chalk this up into the category of bowl games that no one cares about. Purdue played Central Michigan earlier this year and hammered them in West LaFayette but this looks to be a little closer. Central Michigan QB Dan LeFevour has put up some Vince Young-like numbers this season and looks to do the same against a shady Purdue defense. The Boilers will be without star WR Selwyn Lymon as he has been kicked off of the team. Talk about a bad year for Lymon. He gets hit up for a DUI and then gets stabbed in the chest only to be followed by getting booted off of the team. Way to go Selwyn. As for the game itself I am going with the upset and taking CMU. They played much better down the stretch while Purdue really struggled towards the end of the season. There should be a ton of offense on display which always helps the ratings of games in which no one cares about.


Central Michigan 34 - Purdue 31
* actual score: Purdue 51 - CMU 48 (F$!#, so close yet still so far away)
