Makes one amazing play to keep the drive alive and the he turns into what he is...a Leaf.

Poor Music City Bowl, getting absolutely no love or promos from ESPN. They keeping saying it's a doubleheader tomorrow but it's actually a tripleheader with Virginia/Minnesota kicking it off early.

A Leaf in San Diego is a recipe for disaster and of course Oregon's offense has stalled the two drives he's been in.

Nope Oregon is wearing their whites as they are the "visiting" team.

I've created a thread for the game so all further discussion please go to the Holiday Bowl thread. Of course for all of us that want to discuss the Emerald Bowl can stay here...um well nevermind. Georgia Tech apparantly went with "apathy" towards being passed over by bowls rather than being fired up. Utah about to put this one away.

To keep the TWiCFB thread from falling apart I've decided this game will need it's own thread so here we are. Looks like the Emerald Bowl isn't going to end by time they kickoff in San Diego.

Florida State has sent home linebacker A.J. Nicholson after being accused of rape.

Uh wow that was about as close to the Stanford band play as you'll get. So time for Lloyd Carr to update his resume?

I don't think you'll be seeing Sun Belt officials do any bowl games next year involving major programs after tonight's game.

Bored Bowl Update: With Boston College's win, AlwaysPissedOff takes a 9-7 lead. Spaceman Spiff needs LSU and Iowa State to win to force a tiebreak.

92 yard punt return for Boise pulls them within six with under four minutes to go.

Alamo Bowl, worth 15 points, 29 out of 30 people picked Michigan. Agent Bond34 was the only one to pick Nebraska.

And of course ASU has dominated the game since I made this post. Their defense didn't look like they could stop an NAIA team in the first half but did just enough for the offense to take over in the second half.

Based on the first half Rutgers looks like they are going to get their first bowl win ever. ASU has absolutely no defense at all and if it wasn't for the one fumble recovery they got this game might already be over.

Tuesday's Games Champs Sports Bowl worth 13 points, 28 out of 30 people picked Clemson. keith6601 and Agent Bond34 were the only ones to pick Colorado. Insight Bowl worth nine points, 23 out of the 30 people picked Arizona State. Here's who picked Rutgers: keith6601, Hawk 34, DragonLordKaiba, bravesfan, the pinjockey, Kotzenjunge, Spicy McHaggis.
