Wow! UAB makes a tackle on the two yard line to save their win over the Miami Redhawks. final score, 24-20 for the Blazers.

The win should help boost the team which will be coached next year by former NFL quarterback, Trent Dilfer.

ORLANDO, Fla. -- — Gunnar Watson’s 12-yard scoring pass to RaJae’ Johnson in the third period put No. 23 Troy ahead to stay, and the Trojans forced five turnovers in an 18-12 come-from-behind win over No. 22 UTSA in the Duluth Trading Cure Bowl on Friday.

2-0 for me so far but it's way too early.

Today, there's the Wasabi Fenway Bowl, [the b]Cricket Celebration Bowl.[/b], the SRS Distribution Las Vegas Bowl, the Jimmy Kimmel LA Bowl Presented by Stifel, the LendingTree Bowl, the LendingTree Bowl, the New Mexico Bowl, and the Frisco Bowl, which is in a suburb of Dallas, Texas.

here's a link:

scores of games played and info. on upcoming matches.

Yesterday, The Eastern Michigan Eagles defeated the San José State Spartans, 41-27 in the Idaho Potato Bowl. Idaho, the state, is famous for growing potatoes.

Unfortunately, the Potato Bowl is played on the Boise State field with its hideous blue and orange astroturf artificial surface.

The Toledo Rockets just got past the Liberty Flames, 21-19 in the Boca Raton Bowl. Boca Raton is located in southern Florida and as such, is populated mostly by retired people.


I don't get to see most of the teams playing in these bowl games very often during the regular season. The teams usually don't know each other so predicting wins is difficult and one never knows how well or bad the game will go. Some of these matches have been pretty exciting even though I've never seen either of the teams play.

Later in the bowl game schedule, the more recognizable teams will play and more people will watch but that's no guarantee the games will be more exciting.

My team, Alabama, has a number of players that will sign top dollar contracts to play professionally but they have still decided to play in their last bowl game and risk getting injured; which could potentially cost them millions. But they could also catch crabs from some lovely lady they met at a church social and spend the game scratching instead of winning so they might as well play.

Oregon Duck fans, I see Bo Nix has decided to remain for one more year. This caused a five star recruit to go elsewhere but a four star recruit to change his mind and decide to go to Oregon.
