Baca Raton Bowl (December 20): Western Kentucky QB Mike White

No, this isn’t the actor who was horrible in School of Rock. This Mike White racked up a ton of yards (4,027) and threw a bunch of touchdowns (34). Despite racking up the yards, he rarely turned the ball over (six interceptions).

To make White an even more interesting pick, he has a chance to post some big stats as Memphis gave up an average of 442.7 yards per game this season.

Western Kentucky also has a running back in Anthony Wales who rushed for 1,410 yards this season while averaging 6.8 yards per touch. That impacts the passing game in a good way because it prevents Memphis from dropping back into pass coverage and ignoring the running game.
