Predicting the Independence Bowl

I have written about every Georgia Tech game of the year, so there is no reason to stop now.  In roughly fifteen minutes, the Yellow Jackets and the Air Force Falcons will face off in Shreveport, LA, in the Independence Bowl.  This game is a match-up of two eerily similar teams since both run the triple option.  That will be play to Tech's advantage since the Jackets are usually at a disadvantage in bowls due to the fact that the option is much easier to stop with ample preparation.  Most prognosticators say this game will be a snooze fest since it features two of the nation's more predictable offenses.  I think it will be much more explosive since both teams have had plenty of time to install new plays.  I expect Paul Johnson to open the game with a trick play or at least as pass.  In the end, Tech's superior recruiting should overcome Air Force's precision.  I encourage you to tune it and watch it at 5 pm on ESPN2.  Georgia Tech 34, Air Force 29
