Pick the BCS Bowl Winners, Win NCAA Football ’11

Insert your joke about fondling balls here.

To football fans, the end of the year means two things: NFL playoffs and bowl games. Pair that with the NBA and NHL seasons in full swing — not to mention the upcoming Winter Classic — and you’ve got us in the mood to celebrate!

Now, as anyone that’s been following the site knows, when we feel like celebrating it usually means free stuff for you. This is no exception as we’re giving away an Xbox 360 copy of EA Sports’ NCAA Football ’11 to our best pigskin prognosticator!

Here’s how it’s done. Scroll down and leave a comment, picking who you think will win each of the five BCS Bowl games. Plus, for the National Championship Game make sure you include total points. Then, in the event of a tie, whoever came closest to predicting the combined final score between Auburn and Oregon without going over gets the nod.

All picks must be made before 5 p.m. EST (2 p.m. PST) on January 1.

The Matchups

Rose Bowl: (5) Wisconson Badgers vs. (3) TCU Horned Frogs
Fiesta Bowl: UConn Huskies vs. (7) Oklahoma Sooners
Orange Bowl: (4) Stanford Cardinal vs. (13) Virginia Tech Hokies
Sugar Bowl: (6) Ohio State Buckeyes vs. (8) Arkansas Razorbacks

Good luck, and happy New Year!
