December 17, 2011 scores:

New Mexico Bowl
Temple 37, Wyoming 15, final.

Idaho Potato Bowl
Ohio 24, Utah State 23, final.

New Orleans Bowl
San Diego State 30, Louisiana-Lafayette 32, final.

I didn't think anybody'd be interested, so didn't bother animating this thread today.

I caught the last couple of minutes of this one, just to see Coach Solich and Ohio University win their first ever bowl game.  Congrats to the real Coach Frank Solich and the Bobcats of Ohio University. :cheersmate:

Yeah, but it's kind of disheartening how it's worked out for him.

If Frank Solich were still the head football coach here, our record since 2002 would've been wholly different.

And by "different," I mean awesomely better.

And then when he went to the University of Ohio, I figured he'd be taking them all over the place, but alas that never happened.  There's probably a lot of internal personal feelings involved here, and it hurts to see a man of impeccable integrity, principle, and solidity decline.

It didn't have to happen; there was no call for the way he was treated.

Poinsetta Bowl
Texas Christian 31, Lousiana Tech 24, final.

MAACO Bowl
Arizona State 3, Boise State 21, second quarter.

One wonders how Boise State got stuck in a majorly minor bowl game; surely they deserved better.

<<still waiting for the important bowl games to begin, although can't figure out why #08 Boise State got stuck in a minor minor bowl earlier.  Something's just not right with that.

Champs Sports Bowl
Florida State 18, Notre Dame 14, final.

Alamo Bowl
Washington 56, Baylor 67, final.

It's a long road to the important, meaningful bowl games.

College football was a great deal more exciting when there was only the Rose Bowl, the Sugar Bowl, the Cotton Bowl, and the Orange Bowl.

You know, Oregon didn't deserve to win that game.

Wisconsin's been playing football since God was a boy; Wisconsin has history and tradition and a record.

When Oregon's played football for a few more generations and decades, Oregon'll get some respect.

But right now, Oregon's just another one of these transient media-created phenomenons, a flash in the pan.

Well, we're down to just six more bowl games.

In my personal opinion though, this really sucks, all these bowl games and all these bowl games after January 1st.

Far, far better it was, when there were only four bowl games of any importance--the Cotton Bowl, the Rose Bowl, the Sugar Bowl, and the Orange Bowl--and they were all played on New Year's Day, after which sports hibernated for the rest of the year, until the last week of August.

The rarer a thing is, the more it's prized.....and appreciated; one can have too much.

At least it was a good game. Pretty much in a shootout each team has to score nearly every time and Oregon did that more.
