Humanitarian Bowl: Bowling Green vs. Idaho

  • darbypitcher22
    probably the best game of the bowl season so far... I picked BG on ESPN but I was rooting for Idaho, they've had a great year and their coach is a high energy guy who seems to care a lot about his kids. Great call to go for 2 and take the W.

    Congrats to the Vandals

    Why would you pick a team in a poll, and root for the other? Unless your poll has already been destroyed oor you talk out of both sides of your mouth?

    Not shocking that another team from Ohio falls in what was a big game for them.

    Wow, what a fun game game to watch...I can't understand why Barnes wasn't double covered and the cb didn't have any help with him, he was lights out.

    I haven't been following them quite this long, but close -- and I agree.

    How a coach doesn't tell his team to simply tackle a receiver before the ball gets there (pass interference is only 15 yards) so clock gets burned off, I have no idea.

    I had hoped Clawson would help to fix the awful defensive history of BG over the past decade or so, but I guess that was too much to hope for.

    This coaching staff should be thoroughly ashamed for letting this one get away from them.

    well considering I'm 2 games under .500 in my poll I figured it'd be ok
