Buffalo playing fast and loose.

Buffalo playing fast and loose.

Very good game.

UB literally didn't run a single offensive play in the 3rd qtr.

Troy is a fun team to watch too.

They have shown they can compete with mid and lower tier SEC and ACC teams.

 

[billybud]

Troy is 0-9 from 2000-2017 against the ACC.

....0-3 vs Big Ten

....2-19 vs SEC

....2-10 vs Big 12

They did have a big upset win in 2017 against LSU and lost to Boise State in the bowl game.

BC was up 7-0 over Boise. Weather/lightning delays from the beginning. Officially ruled a “no contest”.



I don’t remember a bowl game being cancelled before...

Horrible for the fans who travelled.

Stop playing these games in warm weather locations.

>>Later, a bigger storm cell was coming, one with 350 lightning strikes in the cell, Jarmond said. “It was going to be at minimum of four hours sitting in a locker room,” he said. “There was a small window in between where it would be clear, maybe 45 minutes. That’s not even counting warm-up time. We could have maybe played for 15 minutes. … To me, it was a no-brainer even considering how disappointed we were. We weren’t going to put our kids in harm’s way.”<<

They couldn't have postponed it till tomorrow?

>>Clint Overby, VP of ESPN Events, said that “rescheduling the game really wasn’t a practical option” for many reasons, including travel and logistics.<<

Hate BC all we want but this is a classy move.

Those 5 fans will be very happy.

Stinks for all those who attended to have the game cancelled. Probably a much bigger deal for the Boise fans as this is probably for some their annual trip/superbowl game.

Doesn't Boise usually end up playing in either the potato bowl or the Vegas bowl? It was probably a nice change for them to go to Dallas

Temple is up on Duke, 5 minutes to go in the first.

What a ride for Temple these days.

[Adios]

Duke dominating momentum now. 35-27, Temple turned over on downs.

 

[NC_Uconn_Fan]

P6!

 

[Adios]

What the heck happened to Temple in the second half?

 

[Bonehead]

35-0 Duke in the 2nd half. That's a @whaler11 special.

CT Native Dave P must have caught a flight @ the half...

Ummm. Did the D coordinator go with him as well...

In terms of conference perception and possible TV contract bids, it's probably better to go 1-11 than get blown out in a Bowl game.

Good job UConn!
