I'd rather watch the game on television, thank you very much. Also, I'm a huge loser.

Woo, big matchup is this weekend. It’ll be interesting to see if Louisiana Tech can maintain their mental focus in what appears to be a home game for them.

i like how the Independence Bowl still has its banner advertising itself as a matchup between the SEC and the Big 12, when, in reality, it’s a matchup between the MAC and the WAC.

So, basically, you gotta Go Bears!

Papajohn’s is worth watching because of the ridiculous winning streaks those teams are on. 11 straight games between the two teams.

I have no new information on that at this time.

Emerald and Alamo bowls should be good

The opinions expressed in a FanPost are not necessarily those of the California Golden Blogs or any of its authors. However, they are just as important as the opinions of any of the authors. And doubly so as compared to TwistNHook!
