I must say it has picked more winners then I have over the past 2 years.

I actually am going to take it account this year, as I cap the games.

I think it can be used as another angle to add to anyone's list of methods that they use to cap a game.

I just wonder if there is people out there that just strictly use this method to make their picks with?

Then LSU would never win this way for you

jwheels86,

I am only applying this method, coincidence or whatever one would like to call it, to the Bowl games ONLY.

As far as I know LSU and GA Tech are the only two schools who consistently wear their white jerseys at home. If they are the home team they will still be wearing white. I don't know what GA Tech's record is in bowl games (and I don't feel like looking it up) but LSU is 11-3 in their last 14 bowls. Only once in those 14 bowls did they wear their purple jerseys, which was against GA Tech in 2000.
