If they get lucky and play CMU, they may be ok in the bowl, but if they play anyone with a good offense, it could get ugly.
Don't know who CMU is, but they've already played pretty well against two of their possible CCG opponents (with cfb showing us that title game rematches are pretty damn tough for the original winners) in the 4th offense in the country in Ohio State and the 9th offense in the country in Michigan. PSU has the 28th offense in the country, for comparison.
Technically you're right, it
could get ugly, but they
could also win 70-0.
