Bowl Thread for Degenerates

[Purple Stein]

First slate of games today:

New Orleans Bowl: Troy -6.5 vs North Texas, 1:00, ESPN
Cure Bowl: Western Kentucky -7 vs Georgia State, 2:30, CBSSN
Las Vegas Bowl: Oregon -7 vs Boise State, 3:30, ABC
New Mexico Bowl: Colorado State -3.5 vs Marshall, 4:30, ESPN
Camellia Bowl: Arkansas State -3 vs Middle Tennessee St, 8:00, ESPN

I've got Troy -6.5 and Oregon -7. Who've you got?

Wow, there are bowl games today? Every year these early games sneak up on me. I might take a gander at the Oregon-Boise game and Colorado St vs Marshall. Since we have been recruiting against Boise (Nyadu & Mitchell) and Colorado (Mitchell and Daley), I'm leaning towards cheering against them.

Oregon and western Kentucky

Troy, Oregon, Western Kentucky, Colorado State and Arkansas State. Got to find a little time to watch Wichita v Oklahoma in BB.

If the Georgia-W Kentucky box score says that attendance was >5000, it is inaccurate.

19,585 according to the box!

There were ads during the game encouraging people to buy tickets

1-1 today -- you just never know who is and isn't going to show up in these games (for example, Oregon).

MTSU is up to +3.5 -- going for a winning day with the Blue Raiders.

 

[Redding Husky]

Marshall beat Colorado State, 31-28. They're now 11-2 in bowl games.

Someday I hope we can be Marshall.

DXL Frisco Bowl: SMU -4.5 vs Louisiana Tech, 8 PM, ESPN

Let's goo AAC! Win by 5 or more!

 

[Redding Husky]

I'm at the Frisco Bowl. 55 degrees, no wind. More SMU fans as of now, but we're just 25 miles or so north of campus.

SMU wearing their early 1980's Pony Express blue jersey/white pants uni.

New HC Sonny Dykes will be on the sideline. He was a TCU advisor/consultant (or something like that) this year.

Since it’s the degen thread I’d fade SMU and take the 4. Have fun

 

[Redding Husky]

Three turnovers in the first nine minutes by SMU.

They should wear those as their main unis. Represents the only period of success they had, even though it became ridden in scandal.

 

[BugsyCT]

SMU already stinking it up - down 21-3 lat 1st qtr.

Now the TV contract is going to be cut in half.

This is what happens when a coach leaves and takes some staff. 9 of 15 coaches went with Chad to Arkansas.

SMU making Skip Holtz look like some kind of genius...

Yup. Tough to win bowl games when your conference is a virtual coaching farm system for P5 schools, especially when those coaches bail before the bowl games. Not confident UCF will fare well vs Auburn without Frost.

 

[crazyUCfan23]

Isn't Frost returning to coach the bowl game?

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Isn't Frost returning to coach the bowl game?

Yes.

 

[Drew]

Isn't Frost returning to coach the bowl game?

the entire UCF staff is. And they've all been at every practice.
