08:22 AM ET 01.01 | Though the bowl season is a long one, providing a postseason home for so many teams, not all meetings set up as ideal on paper. The Heart of Dallas Bowl kicks off the sporting New Year on Tuesday, and it's a misnamed matchup. If anyone had a heart, OSU would not be playing Purdue. OSU would be in a better bowl, befitting a team that tied for third in the Big 12. And Purdue, already cursed by administrators who fired their coach after the regular season, would not be playing a foe so ill-suited for Boilermaker success. The Vegas crowd picks this game as the most lopsided of the bowls. The Cowboys are 17-point favorites, and it would be a surprise if it's closer than that.

I thought the USC/Georgia Tech game was supposed to be the most lopsided.

I was gonna change my pick in the LUS Pickem after they announced the injuries but I let it play out. Purdue should get their ass handed to em but you never know who is gonna show up at these bowl games.
12-0 deal with it…

Disagree.
Don't see many espousing this same view.
The winner of this year's BCS championship game will not have an asterisk next to it.
There are rules, and when you violate them and get caught, there are penalties to pay.
Don't think anybody is feeling sorry for your team.
Contrary to what you say about the national championship being devalued, the ratings for this year's game promise to be amongst the highest in history.

Ohio State: HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HA HA HA HA!!!!
They got caught cheating. That is what happens. Are they supposed to get some special rule that says "Even though you were caught cheating, it doesn't matter."? Nope, not likely.
