NCAAF Bowl Games

Postby Webb » Sat Dec 21, 2013 9:44 pm

The regular season is over and all that's left are the two national championship games.

January 4, Towson v. North Dakota State (FCS - the result of a real playoff system) and
January 6, Auburn v. Florida State (BCS - whoever we think will bring in more money).

In between we have those interminable bowl games. Who cares. Here's the schedule.

(I happened to see Colorado State v. Washington State in the Gildan New Mexico Bowl and it was awesome. WSU scored something like 18 points in the last 3 minutes to win. Like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get in a bowl game.)

You know, this used to be a helluva good country. I don't understand what's gone wrong with it. - George Hanson, 1969

Heh heh, Jim... you mean CSU! It was good to see the Rams fight back like that, and bring home the trophy to the folks in Fort Collins!

My bad. Congrats to Colorado State.

Absolutely no worries at all, Jim! :D

We've been bereft of Bowl bids here in CO for a couple of years, so it's good when ANYBODY goes!

This is why you have to watch every game.

Syracuse led most of the Texas Bowl but found itself trailing by 2 after a botched 2 point conversion and a missed field goal.

With 2 minutes left Syracuse returned a Minnesota punt for 69 yards to set up the winning touchdown.
