Kicking off at the Frisco Bowl with Memphis taking on West Virginia.

West Virginia playing hard but I don't know how this Memphis team lost to UTSA.

Actually, not to split hairs, but bowls kicked off on Saturday with the Salute to Veterans Bowl (S. 'Bama over W. Mich). Of course that game was at the same time as UConn/Gonzaga so understood why it was missed.

That being said, I don't know why, but every year I get into these meaningless bowls.

Good game last night. Both teams played hard. Almost a crazy ending when Memphis intercepted a pass as WV was in Memphis territory driving for the go ahead score but instead of kneeling for the win, the kid tried to return the int and fumbled it right back to WV. Replay overturned the fumble saying he was down...

Replay overturned the fumble saying he was down...

I understand the slide rule, but I don't like ruling the ballcarrier can't fumble once the slide starts. No part of the runner's body was down at the time the ball was punched out of his hands, and there was no attempt to tackle or hit the runner.

That being said...

Them's triggering words, thought you were gonna declare for the portal and move to another board. ^_^

So not a lot of interest in JMU, Sam Houston, and UNLV over Cal the past two nights. How about a couple of Fla Bowls this afternoon before the Indiana Super Bowl kicks off?. Tulane vs Florida?
