The rafters look like an oval basketball roof. Hope we never "make it" to that Bowl

Before I realized it was a domed stadium, I figured it was just wet. But you're right, it looks like crap.

What happens when you take two northern schools and put them in St Petersburg?

You get about 2,000 of your closest friends show up. #everybodygetsdattrophy

Best shot is probably Navy, but I think Memphis and Houston could possibly pull it out. I think Tulsa loses.

Blizzard Conditions at the Sun Bowl right now-big flakes of snow but not sticking to field

Did you see the EL Paso promotion as saying El Paso is known for its warm weather?

The Independence " No Defense" Bowl is exciting

about 4 long TDs in first few drives in about 3 minutes of elapsed time

I think there were more TDs than tackles at the time

its 17-14 Virginia Tech over Tulsa now about 6 minutes in

and Virginia Tech takes opening drive of 2nd Half 80 yards

Virginia Tech 52-31

if only we had hired a veteran coach like Bill Young as our Defensive Coordinator-Tulsa gave up 532 yards per game BEFORE this game-which is about 30 worse than SMU.
