Armed Forces Bowl
Almost at the end. Just one game on Saturday before the NFL Wildcard games.
Tulane vs. Southern Miss
This game is played in Fort Worth, Texas and had a 10:30am local start time. The fact that there were fans in the stands was somewhat amazing. These two teams used to play all the time when they were independents but this was their first meeting in 10 years as both are in conferences now.
Southern Miss opened with two quick scores. Tulane's coach had a quick sideline meeting was his team and whatever he said worked as the Green Wave kept them out of the end zone the rest of the way. Tulane put up 24 in the third quarter and that was game.
Not a great game but Tulane's uniforms were on point.
Tulane 30 Southern Miss 13
My pick: Tulane
My bet: Tulane -7.5, first of two winners on the day, also had Tennessee +5 in the playoff game against New England.
Game Notes
-Second consecutive bowl win for Tulane.
-Did you know Starsky was a Tulane alum?
As well as playing Starsky, Paul Michael Glaser directed Shaq's movie Kazaam. On Rotten Tomatoes, it has a 6% approval rating. Of the film's $20 million budget, $7 million went to Shaquille O'Neal. It was Glaser's last movie as a director.
What Did I Eat: A roast beef sandwich and some chips.
Bowl Swag: Gift suite, college football 150th anniversary coin, beanie, neck pillow, football, Nine Line Apparel patriotic athletic wear.
One more actual bowl game Monday night and then the national championship game a week from Monday.
