Bowl Game Bonanza: Tuesday, January 6th

Posted by Double M




This post is part of a series of posts entitled Bowl Game Bonanza Did you know that there are a bazillion bowl games? Well there are. And here at IR I am going to give you a quick breakdown of each game so that you know who is playing in the bowl, what channel and time the game is on (all times CST), and why you would or wouldn't want to watch the game.

After last night's great game between Texas and Ohio State (including a comment from a "Dave Hasselhoff" on the Bowl Game Bonanza post, are you ready for another bowl game? Well, tonight you're going to get an interesting match up, coming straight to you from Mobile, AL.

On to the bonanza:

GMAC Bowl: Ball State (+2.5) vs. Tulsa (ESPN, 7pm)
Location: Mobile, AL, Ladd-Peebles Stadium
Announcers: Dave Pasch, Andre Ware

This is actually a decent bowl game for being a non-bcs game between two teams that no one really cares about. Ball State went 12-0 and then lost to Turner Gill's Buffalo team in the MAC championship. Meanwhile Tulsa lost 3 games but actually had a decent season. Unfortunately, you probably don't really care, so here's a video featuring Robocop and some chicken tenders. Oh yeah, its from Japan.

Verdict: I'm gonna say Ball State covers the spread on this one - they should have beaten Buffalo but had the worst game of their life.
Regretometer: It could be a great game, but you don't care. 4 on the Regretometer.

These things have really deteriorated haven't they?

Look for Bowl Game Bonanzas everyday there's a bowl game.
