It's bowl time! We'll ask two questions today, so that we can crown the Resident Genius on New Years night. 

First up is Penn State v. Washington in the Fiesta. It's a bit strange to play these Saturday the 30th, but whatever works. Penn State had a fine year on the offensive side of the ball. They've been averaging 286 yards per game through the air. Fortunately, pass defense has been a good thing for the Huskies. They've only been surrendering only 210 YPG this season.

Q: How many passing yards wil PSU have in the Fiesta Bowl?

Immediately following is the Orange Bowl from Miami Gardens. Wisconsin had the best season in their history, and is sent to Miami for a Hurricane home game for their efforts. Wisconsin QB Alex Hornibrook has really come into his own down the stretch, and QB throwing is how Miami got smoked in the ACC title game.

Q: How many passing yards will Wisconsin QB Alex Hornibrook have v. Miami in the Orange Bowl?

Deadline is Saturday, December 30, at 3:00 PM CST. Good hunting.

And from all of us at the Resident Genius World Headquarters in Rochester, MN, Merry Christmas!

I will do the figuring tonight. This is the first chance I've had since New Years to even turn my computer on.
