    Bowl Games

    After seeing how our opponents fared in their bowl games, I think we have even more reason to be proud of this year's team and excited about next year's prospects. Houston thoroughly embarrassed Penn State. Miss State and S. Miss. won their bowls. Except for maybe the Hawaii game, we shouldn't be ashamed of this year's losses.

    Those Penn State players whined for two weeks that Houston and the Ticket City Bowl were beneath them and they deserved a higher profile bowl and a "worthier" opponent. They got their comeuppance.

    Defense wasn't really taught this year. Man these bowls are lighting up the scoreboard!

    Re: Bowl Games

    And the $EC has been eliminated in the Bowl Challenge Cup competition since it can finish no better than 6-3.

    Big 12 clinches it at 7-1 if K-State beats Arkansas in the Cotton Bowl. Otherwise CUSA, the Big East, and the MAC can all still finish at 4-1 by winning out, and that would beat the Big 12 at 6-2 with a K-State loss. The Pittsburgh-SMU game will knock out either the Big East or CUSA if K-State doesn't seal it and if the Big East is still alive after the Orange Bowl.

    The BIG XII has had a very good year in football.

    The Big 10 (1-4 yesterday?) has flopped once again in the bowls.

    The SEC has looked pretty mediocre in the bowls so far, giving more reason to believe it was a "top heavy" conference in 2011. After BAMA & LSU, it falls off pretty fast.

    That's true, but the SEC will win the National Championship (again), six in a row, I believe. I'd take that over winning records for whatever conference.

    Boy this thread took off in a slightly different direction from the first post!

    Yes our opponents did well and it does make our team look all that much better!

    Corrected it for you. Division I FBS does not crown a national champion in football since there is no NCAA playoff.

    Would y'all agree that Louisiana's win was the best bowl game to this point? That last field goal to win the game was great.

    I don't recall any teams going by the name of Louisiana.

    I think he is talking about the flagship, University of Louisiana at Monroe. What bowl did they go to?

    I thought that the University of Louisiana Cougars lost to the South Central Louisiana State University Mud Dogs in the Bourbon Bowl.
