Texas has done the same thing in the Holiday Bowl before, expect to go somewhere good and tank- I think they had to rally to beat a bad Washington team several years ago in that game.
Kansas State when it go snubbed by the BCS and sent to the Alamo- lost outright to Purdue as double digit favorite.
These teams read their press clippings and get hosed and dread going to practices and the game. Not much of a reward for Cal to go to San Diego. Woopee!!!

If you just guess and bet the moves blindly you wouldn't understand this. No way in heck does anybody with a brain bet on a team that doesn't want to be in a lesser bowl game. Year after year these teams that cry about where they are playing don't show up. Even the TV guys were talking about how TT was all excited about the bowl game they were going to. How do you bet on Cal?
The PAC 10 suxs anyway. And USC will get destroyed by a very good OU team that will pound the sissys from the west coast. Got to be nuts to bet an overated sissy PAC 10 team. USC would lose to any of the top 10 teams in the country. No doubt!
