Sounds like a sticky situation.

You know it’s the first bowl game when a coach decides to run a 2pt conversion tunnel screen right back into the teeth of the defense.

it worked how you would expect. Idiots

 

[OHSportsFan]

Didn’t the Bahamas bowl have some crazy comeback? Maybe 3-5 years ago?

edit- I’ll do my own research. It was the first Bahamas Bowl in 2014. Western Kentucky led 49-14 before Central Michigan came back, missed a 2PC and lost 49-48.

That one? Cmu scored on the last play, went for 2 and the win, and failed.

Mine too. I can't remember the names of people I work with almost daily, yet I remember some irrelevant bowl game between two teams I couldn't care less about. Might say something about my priorities and social skills.

Game wrapped up in 3 hours. A beautiful miracle.

Utah State's QB has been considered a possible 1st round pick at times, and is still considered by some to be a top 50 pick

17 TD/16 INT on the season

Will NFL GMs ever learn that "Arm Talent" usually ends up key word for "future bust"?

CMU has had a thing for Hail Marys in recent years. Both were thrown by Cooper Rush, Dak's backup in Dallas.
