This Match Up Is Right John the Money

Every now and then, a Bowl game is enhanced when the  match-up perfectly embodies the intended spirit of the sponsoring corporation. Today's PapaJohns.Com Bowl is such an occasion, but not because the uniforms of both teams prominently feature pizza sauce red.

PapaJohns.com launched as a means to feed people who were motivated enough to order food, but too lazy to pick up a phone. With 6-6 and 7-5 records respectively, North Carolina State and Rutgers are two teams that were just hungry enough to play in a bowl game, yet failed to devour the cupcake teams on their schedule earlier in the year.  

I wish I could offer an incisive analysis of this irrelevant and superfluous bowl game, however I don't know much about these two teams.  All I have been able to deduce is that the Rutgers offense primarily revolves around QB Mike Teel's demonstrated ability to grossly under throw the ball downfield and allow (rely on) his receivers to come back and make a play.  Essentially, he represents an older, poor man's version of Terrelle Pryor.

Since my unfamiliarity with these teams precludes me from predicting an outcome, the only guarantee I can offer is that the winning coach will receive a victory shower courtesy of a complimentary vat of garlic sauce.

Garlic sauce? Nice Uncle D, or to quote a certain former all-pro running back, "That was cleee-vah"
