**Ladies and Gentlemen...it's the FR College Football 2007-08 Bowl Games Thread**

It's the most wonderful time of the year...With my Utes winning bowl games and BYU losing so I'll be of good cheer...it's the most wonderful time of the year...

--Ow! Tomatoes hurt you know. Sheesh...

During the regular season, I would normally do my fancy and mildly humorous graphical elements and those of you who would like me to feature their school's games, I would oblige. However, since we've got miles to go before we sleep, I'll re-ping the list as we go along and include said graphics. Sound like a deal? Excellent.

Tomorrow the fun will begin. (For me, at least). :)

It’s not every day you get to win a Poinsettia Bowl either, so all in all its been a good day. :)

Did you celebrate by purchasing some Poinsettias from your nearest florist?

[GOP_Raider]

That reminds me. Have you ever been hanging out, minding your own business when you say to yourself "self, what the hell ever happened to Howard Schnellenberger?"

Well, wonder no more. As Howard is now the head coach of Florida Atlantic. He's come a long way from his early days with the Hurricanes...

What was that description you gave earlier in the season... something like “where defense is for pansies” lol

[GOP_Raider]

LOL, I didn’t today but before our last home game against New Mexico, I decided to purchase some poinsettias so a few of us in our section could throw them into the air should the Utes beat them—since it was more than likely we were going to the Poinsettia Bowl.

Unfortunately, no one really got it, so it was something of a lost cause. :)

[GOP_Raider]

Haha, yeah I’ll have to look it up, but I think it was my description of the current WAC. “Where defense is for chumps” I think it was.

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

Yeah that sounds more like it.... gave us quite a laugh around here!

If I had known in advance UConn was going to the Meineke Car Care Bowl I'm not sure what I would have thrown onto the field.

FDT, the 44th POTUS! Has a nice ring to it, no?

17 days till the BCS Championship! Can’t it just get here already?

[GOP_Raider]

I’m glad my humor is appreciated. :)

Oh, yeah TD Florida Atlantic. 17-7 Owls. I don’t know, but can owls live in Florida?

[GOP_Raider]

You could have just went to a junkyard and found an old muffler and and painted it blue and white?? ;)

[cleveland gop]

You should take a look at how Coach voted in the final BS poll. He voted Hawaii THIRD! It was most interesting to say the least.

[GOP_Raider]

It does indeed have a nice ring to it. Now if we can just get the RudyMcRomney triumvirate to self destruct all at the same time, it’s ours, baby!

(And yes, the title game can’t get here soon enough)

[GOP_Raider]

Our local paper here mentioned that he had voted Hawai’i 3rd. That is a little goofy, but it’s apparent that Howie’s living the dream at FAU.

[GOP_Raider]

Memphis finally gets a FG. It’s only 17-10 right now in the 2nd.

[GOP_Raider]

In the blink of an eye—in football terms—TD Florida Atlantic! You can’t stop the Schnellenberger you can only hope to contain him!

24-10 FAU

[GOP_Raider]

See, it’s 30-20 FAU now after the Memphis TD. Both teams have realized apparently that if you just run the ball and play good defense, you’ll lose. Every time I try that playing Playstation or XBoX, I’ve lost.

(Okay bad example but you get the idea) ;)

[GOP_Raider]

TD Memphis! We got a bit of a ballgame on our hands...30-27 FAU in the 3rd

[MplsSteve]

Blocked punt by FAU!

[GOP_Raider]

FAU’s offense is impressive. Probably the token “best offense most of America has never seen”.

[GOP_Raider]

It’s a final.

Florida Atlantic 44
Memphis 27

The Schnellenberger has done it again!
