Tostitos Fiesta Bowl Tickets

2011 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl Predictions The Connecticut Huskies and Oklahoma Sooners will battle in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl on January 1 at 8:30 p.m. at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale.

Is it just me, or does it seem like the Oklahoma Sooners end up in a no-win situation every year they play in a BCS game? If they beat the Huskies, it's to be expected. If they lose, it's an upset and a big story.

However, Connecticut doesn't have the talent of some of the teams that Oklahoma has struggled with in past bowl games. Oklahoma's two losses have been on the road against tough Big 12 opponents, and the same can't be said for Connecticut's losses in the Big East.

Quarterback Landry Jones could have a field day against UConn, and you know Bob Stoops is itching to snap his streak of five straight BCS bowl losses.

This game could get ugly, and it could happen in a hurry. Look for the Big 12 to assert its dominance over the Big East, which is a laughable football conference.

Prediction: Oklahoma 41, UConn 16
