College Football: Bowls

[Crothian]

Bowl season is here and things are looking good. Unless you are an Orange fan. GT really took them apart last night.

THis night we have my Bowling Green Falcons verse the Memphis whomevers. Go Falcons!! I loved the on side kick, that wasa great call.

And in other news AP backs out of the BCS. And in the statement they seemed almost suprised to learn the BCS had been using the AP poll for the past seven years. I can understand the need for them to remove themselves since there was a conflict of interests with 3 AP voters from Texas that made Texas jump Cal. So, maybe just maybe this will lead to the BCS falling, but I doubt it. Looks like the Blue Ribbon idea of a group of people to select the people to play may just happen. Too bad they can't seem to realize the BCS is not set up to handle every situation. :\

And BGSU takes care of Mephis and the MAC wins their first Bowl game of the season. I thinkm the MAC can do very well and win all 5 of their Bowls, and that woulds be darned impressive for the little conference.

How odd. I thought bowls was an old person's game. I wouldn't expect college students to play it.

I'm guessing it's an Aussie thing.

And UCLA loses ...wow, when I went to sleep last night they were controling the game handedly. Amazing.

I was pretty surprised to see UCLA lose. Good win for the Mountain West. Bowling Green was just impressive, though.

Hey Croth, next year my Boise State Broncos are playing your Bowling Green Falcons. Should be a great game, especially since BG is returning their QB, as is Boise. Hmm, we might have to make that game a little interesting...

 

[Crothian]

unlike the 98 superbowl...the Falcons will beat the Broncos

That's coolo that they are playing, I hadn't chercked out BG's schedule next year so this is cool news.

 

[Dimwhit]

That Superbowl bummed me out, since I'm a fan of that Falcon team.

Should be a good game for both teams. Boise State finally has a good non-conference schedule next year. They have Bowling Green, Oregon State, and Georgia (first game of the year).

Here's to hoping they can at least be Louisville in a week. Next year could be rough.

 

[Crothian]

I feel for you. Bowling Green played Oklohoma this year as their opening game.

ugh...we also play Wisconsin next year
