UPI Photo Dr. J. Goes Fro Block ELSON'S FEARLESS BOWL FORECAST Hi jf bft Hey, hey, hey the bowl season is in full swing. If you truly love football then it's your favorite season of the year. For those of you who love football about as much as you do 'the policies of Ayatollah Khomeini, I say please bear with us, it will finally come to an end in , Feburary, 1981 when the NFL's Pro Bowl is played in Honolulu. I'll only for cast collegiate games now, the pros will come later. December 5-Gold Bowl; Richmond, Va. North Carolina Central versus North Carolina A&T: These two teams met in Durham on November 22 and A&T romped to a 49-13 win. It was 37-0 A&T this time. December 13-Independence Bowl; Shreveport, La. McNeese State versus Southern Mississippi: Even though McNeese is 10-1 they're not in the same class as those guys as Southern, The final tally was Southern Miss., 20-16. December 14-Garden State Bowh The . Meadowlands, N.J. Navy versus Houston: Who in their right minds would want to go to a bowl in northern New Jersey at this time of the year? Well, Navy and Houston did whether they're sane or not! Navy is definitely the best ser vice team in awhile and Houston has been a major disappointmenttbut it was the Cougars, 35-0. December 19-Holiday Bowl, San Diego SMU versus BYU: This could be one of the most exciting match ups. What a way to kick off the holidays. BYU is tough but SMU faced a tougher schedule so I'll go with the Mustangs by two. December 20-Tangerine Bowl; Orlando Fla. Maryland versus Florida: The Gators are the most improved team in the na tion (up from last years' 0-10-1 season). Maryland really came on strong following a mid-season slump. 1 think the Terps will win this one by seven. December 26-Fiesta Bowl; Tempe, Arizona Penn St. versus Ohio State: The so-called major bowls would love to have this match up. Both teams are 9-2 but Ohio State has been somewhat a dissa pointment. The teams that beat them (UCLA, Michigan) played great defense and Joe Paterno has a great defensive club, that's why I'm picking the Nittany Lions by four in a slug fest. December 27-HaIl of Fame Bowl; Birmingham, Ala. Tulane versus Arkansas: This should be Elson Armstrong Jr. dubbed the who cares bowl, neither team should be here, but I think Arkansas even at 6-5 has too much for 7-4 Tulane. December 27-Liberty Bowl; Memphis, Tenn. Missouri versus Purdue: Both teams had hoped to be elsewhere representing their conferences as champs but they find themselves in West Ten nessee. I believe that the Big Eight is a tougher league than the Big Ten so I'll go with Missouri by eleven. December 27-Sun Bowl; El Paso, Tex.: Nebraska versus Mississippi State: The Cornhuskers who threatened for No. 1 all year just has too much for the boys from Dixie. The Cornhuskers by 24. December 29-Gator Bowl; Jacksonville, Fla. South Carolina versus Pittsburgh: USC has it's best team ever with that man George Rogers in the back field, Pitt counters with a rugged defense an chored by that man Hugh Greene. Could be one of the better bowls. Pitt's "D" is just too strong. The Panthers will win by four. December 31-Bluebonnet Bowl; Houston,, Tex. Texas versus North Carolina: Before "Black Saturday" in October, both of these teams were gunning for the national title. Since then Texas has swooned. The Tar Heels bounced back nicely to finish 10-1. This one is tough to call but' I'll stand with the 'Heels and they'll win by seven. January 1 -Cotton Bowl; Dallas, Tex. Baylor versus Alabama: The Bears are tough (How'd they ever lose to San Jose State?), but Bear Bryant of Alabama is tougher. The Crimson Tide will win by seventeen. January 1 -Orange Bowl; Miami, Fla. Oklahoma versus Florida State: The rematch bowl, the sametwo teams were here last year. Florida State will be going for revenge plus an outside shot at No i J. Oklahoma (How'd they ever lose to Stanford?) hit it's stride in October and hasn't been stopped since, another hard one to call. Should be a real barn burner. I think Oklahoma will find a way to beat FSU by three. January 1-Rose Bowl; Pasadena, Cal. Michigan versus Washington: I'm glad to see that Washington coaches participating will want to see just what will be ahead of them during the regular season as well as in the conferecne cham pionships in March."

Michigan has a history of choking in bowls (they've lost seven straight) and the Big Ten Champion always seems to blow it in Pasadena. But against my better judgement, I'm go ing to pick the Wolverines by six. January 1 -Sugar Bowl; New Orleans, La. Notre Dame versus Georgia: This looks like the National Champion ship Game, Georgia has fantastic Herschell Walker. Notre Dame has a dynamite defense, many people doubt that Georgia is truly No. 1. Notre Dame has a history of knocking off No. i ranked teams. I'll go with the Irish by two. January 2-Peach Bowl; Atlanta, Ga.
