OT: 2023 NCAA Bowl Games Thread 12/16-1/1

Utah-NW tied at 0-0 in latter part of 2nd quarter with NW having a couple head scratching calls on short yardage plays.

After a 1/2 yd run to set up 4th and goal from 1/2 yard line, NW uses play action pass that fools nobody and QB basically throws it away.

On following drive with 3rd and 1/2 yd at Utah 40, NW tries an even worse pass play where QB again basically throws it away. They then punt on 4th and 1/2 to go.

Why not just once try a d**n QB push play with two plays and 1/2 yard to go.

On a plane. Can someone explain why Utah has not scored? Is NW defense that good?
Well, if you ask on here, some will say they were one of the worst when we played them(how could they not be we scored 24 pts.), but now they're one of the Top 10 in the nation.

Will never understand how a QB not under pressure can sail a pass in the flat so far over the receivers head. Hilinski in for Bryant.

Up today--in today's The Athletic, they called Minnesota to win, which maybe will happen, but with their QB situation, unlikely?

All pundits have picked SMU to beat BC. and 7/8 picked RU over Miami on Thursday.

The Minnesota QB’s fiancé made the Quick Lane Bowl worth watching. And Bowling Green made a game out of it too towards the end.
