Poinsettia Bowl...

San Diego St plays in its first bowl game since 1998 against Navy.  The big question is who has home field advantage?  Navy comes into this game with another 10 win season under Ken Niumatalolo, and are masters at running the triple-option.  Ricky Dobbs again will be the focal point of this offense which averages almost 290 yards on the ground on the year.  The Aztec come into this game with some fire power as well.  They run a pro style offense and Quarterback Ryan Lindley has aired it out for more than 3,000 yards and 26 touchdowns.  He isn't the whole face of the offense, Freshman Running Back Ronnie Hillman is a threat to break open on this Navy defense.  Navy proved it can work through adversity after losing its opener against Maryland, and the Aztec proved they are contenders with near misses against Utah and TCU.  This is a great game that will not disappoint and features to great coaching styles in Niumatalolo and Brady Hoke.
