Wyoming up 14-7 in the second

[Jibjab]

Watching the D3 championship, that's some real football right there.

21-17 Fresno. 3rd Q

[danefan]

Sucks that the DIII championship got pushed to ESPNU. I was looking forward to watching it.

What was attendance at the New Mexico bowl? 6,000 maybe.

[Mvemjsunpx]

Wyoming wins 35-28 in 2OT after an insane goal line stand in the first OT. Fresno was the co-biggest favorite of all the bowl teams in the point spread (-13) and the biggest favorite on ESPN's College Bowl Mania (96%).

Rutgers up 14-7 in the first over Central Florida

[clenz]

As much as I hate the bowl system I also like it. It does give some interesting match ups, and games non stop for about 3 weeks.

I'm being exposed to Xmas movies for the first time in my life... watching Lampoons Christmas for the first time. More interesting than the current bowel games.

ick. I can't stand (most) xmas movies.

I'm watching the volleyball championships
(and it is probably the only time I'll ever cheer for a Texas team, hoping they'll end Penn State's streak)

[Jibjab]

I'm watching the Vball game too, all those thunder thighs.

Only thing you've ever said that I agree with.

Was that why I couldn't get it on ChannelSurfing?

[tampajag]

the St. Pete Bowl wasn't too bad from what I remember of it. We spent most of the game drinking. UCF has some funny fans. Pretty good crowd for the game.
