Early 3rd quarter, Ohio 27, Jacksonville State 7

The punter for Jacksonville State is Jack Dawson. Someone tell Rose. She’s been looking for him.

What a crappy time for a bowl game. 11am on a Monday? 8am for us west coasters. And why did I not bet way more on UTSA? CC is as depleted as I expected.

Only 1 underdog has won a bowl/playoff game so far (Sam Houston). Dogs are due (looking at you tomorrow USF).

Go Toledo!
It'll be an interesting game with the Pitt QB situation and their players in the portal. Due to that, I switched to Toledo in my pool. We'll see how it goes. And as always, the opposing fans will outnumber the Pitt fans.

U of Toledo, we’ll fight for you.
U of Toledo, love that gold and blue.
Men (and women) of the varsity, the enemy must yield…
We’ll fight just like our ancestors and march right down that field!

Toledo, Toledo, Toledo

As a former student and alum with 2 degrees from there, I support the ROCKETS!

The NCAA should mandate them to at least make an attempt of a dignified name. In days gone by, at least the third rate Bowls had like the Cherry Bowl and Independence Bowl. It was like "well we didn't make the Sun Bowl, but at least we're in the Poinsettia Bowl." I think Poulan Weedeater was the beginning of the end of that.

Everyone is auditioning for the NFL, playing hard. All respect.

The Pitt kicker will have a long career in the NFL, a sure thing.
