Other Bowl Game Thoughts
Posted by: Bradley McDonald
- It was great to see my Tigers finally put a complete game together and unleash a pounding of Miami, 40-3. LSU has had the talent to do this all year and they were clicking on all cylinders for this game. Stat of the game: Miami was held to 3 total yards in the second half!
- Notre Dame keeps confirming my opinion that their name alone bumps them up into a better bowl game than they deserve. The Irish lost their 8 straight bowl matchup.
- Besides the LSU game, most of the games this year were close, which means the bowl committees did a fine job of choosing matchups. The Sugar Bowl and the Orange Bowl were both decided by three points (and both kept me up until midnight, when the games were finally decided) and we all know how good of a matchup the Rose Bowl turned out to be.
- Take a gander at some of the official names of these bowls. I faintly remember posting a blog last year making fun of the multitude of bowl games (too lazy to look it up), but these babies are real!
