Damn I took FIU.

I really only think the top 4 teams in the league are any good. Why so certain on Temple laying 7?

LOL. Poor Ballot. Get ready to be pounced on

I’m nowhere near certain. I spent about 3 minutes thinking about it. Temple played a lot better after the QB change.

I had a juiced -6.5 for Temple.

Easy there bud. Didn’t know Temple was such a juggernaut.

Sorry man. It may be too many points, you may collect. Mediocre AAC v teams with something to prove. you may be right.

No need to apologize. I feel like Temple has more to prove. FIU is FIU. If you compare the schedules there are some interesting comparisons. Both actually played UMASS and Tulane.

 

[Showballot]

To be frank, I didn’t even know Temple switched QBs. I thought the kid from CT who played against us was pretty bad.

Hadn't heard Frost was returning for the bowl game. Good news for UCF and kudos to Frost.

Couldn’t disagree more. I wouldn’t let anyone not staying within a mile of my campus.

It’s pretty clear why no one watches these games. They kind of are unwatchable. Also, there’s no one at the trop. Who funds this stuff?

The TV ratings are generally still good - but I can’t imagine watching this in person in a baseball stadium.

You have a campus? Cool.

Temple definitely looks better. Would be shocked if they didn’t cover at this point. Under was the play.

Never count anyone out in the Bad Boyz Mowers Bowl.

Weird set of games today -- just 2 Friday afternoon matchups.

Bahamas Bowl: Ohio -6.5 vs UAB, 12:30, ESPN
Famous Idaho Potato Bowl: Wyoming -3 vs Central Michigan, 4:00 ESPN

Being only vaguely aware they're playing football at UAB again, I'm not touching that one.

Putting some fake pennies on Wyoming -3 -- Craig Bohl has had a lot of time to get ready for the Potato Bowl.

 

[History Geek]

Watching Wyoming in brown/yellow vs. Central Michigan in yellow/yellow on a blue field is hurting my eyes.

 

[Purple Stein]

Looks like some redditors had a blast at the Bahamas Bowl:



And here we are in the AAC stuck with tie-ins like the Frisco Bowl...

USF vs Texas Tech in Birmingham Bowl underway. TT just took a 10-3 lead late 1st q

 

[Nostical]

I was at the UConn v Marshall Bowl at The Trop. TV angle showed it empty yet the side of stadium we were on was jammed full. As for the Birmingham Bowl we were also there when we playied and beat South Carolina. UConn had large fan contingent and S.Carolina had huge turnout and it was freezing cold that day. TT and USF fans are underwhelming to say the least.

 

[BugsyCT]

USF fans won't even go to their own home games let alone to Birmingham on Christmas weekend.

 

[Showballot]

Anyone else like Toledo ?

 

[XStorrsion]

Ok so when do they announce that Army has joined the AAC?

Ok so when do they announce that Army has joined the AAC?

They've demonstrated, much like Navy and USAFA, with a good coach, they can compete against FBS schools.

 

[Purple Stein]

If Christmas isn't your thing, good Christmas Eve matchup tonight...

Hawaii Bowl: Fresno State -2.5 vs Houston, 8:30, ESPN

I think Fresno is going to win by a couple of TDs --hope I'm wrong!

 

[TMB4405]

Anyone feeling Houston tonight at -2.5 or do I have my AAC underated glasses on?
