  Sounds fun! Thank you. I'll give it a try.

  Minnesota has a 5-7 record, gets "rewarded" with a trip to Detroit play Central Michigan.
  
  Prayers for the Gophers.

  Will have a few bonus point opportunities in the OSU/ND game
• Tiernan

  In it to win it
• bigkahuna

  Sure
• Azubuike24

  

  Question. How do teams from the same conference (Nevada and Colorado State) play in a bowl game? Couldn't they have manipulated it some way with all these 5-7 teams and pick different opponents?

  Lol that's awful
• Ironman92

  

  Decent bowl games today
• wildcats20

  

  How does Utah lead 35-0 after 1 and not score another point, while giving up 28?
• Heretic

  

  Or, how the fuck did Ohio give up three touchdowns in about two minutes in a game they seemingly had under control? That saddened me.
