Bowl Games
Kickers rarely get much attention when it comes to college all-star games. But Wake Forest’s Nick Sciba is no ordinary kicker. So, when the fourth-year junior from Clover, South Carolina traveled cross country for the 2022 NFLPA Collegiate Bowl, he was going to make sure to take advantage of the opportunity. Saturday’s game at the […]
Baylor Wins the Sugar Bowl Like most fans, we expected plenty of fireworks from the two high-powered offenses heading into the Sugar Bowl matchup. That is not exactly what we got. Largely though solid defensive effort, Baylor wins the Sugar Bowl by a final score of 21-7. Here is how they got there. Defensive First […]
2022 Rose Bowl The 2022 Rose Bowl was one of the most dramatic games of the season, ending in a 48-45 win for Ohio State over Utah. This was the first-ever Rose Bowl appearance for Utah, as the hopes of their first win in the game fell apart in the fourth quarter. Meanwhile, Ohio State […]
Cats Notch Fourth Straight Bowl Win The ESPN family of networks must love the Kentucky Football team. During their six-year bowl streak, five of the games have gone down to the last minute. It was no different on Saturday as the Cats and Iowa traded the lead in the fourth quarter. However, as they’ve done […]
It was a lackluster showing by the Nittany Lions in Tampa on Saturday afternoon. Penn State started 2022 with a loss to Arkansas in the 2022 Outback Bowl, 10-24. The Razorbacks scored seven in the first quarter, none in the second, but went on a 17-0 run in the second half. The young Penn State […]
The old-school matchup between Kirk Ferentz and Mark Stoops in the Vrbo Citrus Bowl lived up to its expectations. Both Iowa and Kentucky played a physical game of football that ended with a 20-17 Kentucky victory. It took a huge drive with three minutes to play for Kentucky to get the win. The touchdown at […]
Cowboys Storm Back, Claim Fiesta Bowl The 2021 Fiesta Bowl was a tale of two halves on Saturday. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish came out firing in their first game under head coach Marcus Freeman. An early surge put the Irish up 28-7 with 1:16 to play in the first half. However, Oklahoma State scored […]
After its disappointing showing in the SEC title game, many onlookers gave up on UGA Football. This was not entirely undeserved, as that was easily the Dawgs biggest moment of the season and they blew it. However, due to convenient playoff seedings, Georgia had a chance at redemption. All the Bulldogs had to do was […]
Sets Up All-SEC Rematch Heading into Friday night’s Orange Bowl match up many wondered what Georgia team would show up in Miami. Is the the team that dominated the first 12 weeks of the 2021 season or the one who was blitzed by Alabama? It didn’t take long for the answer as Kirby Smart’s Bulldogs […]
Central Michigan had just four days to prepare for their new bowl game opponent. After making the five hour drive from Tucson to El Paso the day before the game, the Chippewas had to have their home jerseys over-nighted to Texas to contrast Washington State’s whites. Behind the physical running attack of the Chippewa offense, […]
The Wake Forest Demon Deacons defeated the Rutgers Scarlet Knights 38-10 to win the TaxSlayer Gator Bowl. Wake Forest’s offense was just too much for Rutgers’ defense, and the Scarlet Knights’ offense had less than 300 yards on offense. Wake Forest finishes the season at 11-3, and Rutgers is now 5-8 in Greg Schiano‘s second […]
The Iowa Hawkeyes are familiar with the sunshine state. Kirk Ferentz has led his team to a Florida bowl game 10 times in his 23-year run in Iowa City. This will be the 11th trip to Florida and first appearance in the Vrbo Citrus Bowl for Iowa. The Hawkeyes finished the regular season 10-2 before […]

The 2022 Outback Bowl will be played on Saturday, January 1st, at 12:00 PM ET and will air on ESPN2. The Nittany Lions will be without standout wide receiver Jahan […]
Stoops Versus His Alma Mater With so many bowl matchups between the Big 10 and SEC, anyone who does bowl projections always wants to put Iowa and Kentucky together. The reason is there’s a built-in storyline. UK headman Mark Stoops played at Iowa in the late 1980s and started his coaching career there as did his […]
Fireworks Expected in the Sugar Bowl Ole Miss and Baylor have not traded blows on the gridiron since 1975. In that regular-season affair, Baylor won a low-scoring game in Waco by a score of 20-10. The combined 30 points scored in that game cannot come close to matching the fireworks expected in the Sugar Bowl […]
The Marcus Freeman era is set to begin for Notre Dame at the Fiesta Bowl. The Irish seek their first New Year’s Six bowl victory since January 1st, 1994.

(EDITORIAL): NIL is dead for college football already. Long live the Collectives. Maybe in various forms of media coverage of the ever-changing college sports landscape, you may have been under the illusion that they are intrinsically tied together. NIL, or Name/Image/Likeness, was supposed to be the name of the game going forward. But just as […]
The Big XII Conference had a significant breakthrough this past season. For the first time since the 2014 season, the Oklahoma Sooners didn’t a conference championship title.
