I don't like the comment that it will not be good football. Is it necessarily good football when it is a defensive struggle? This writer probably couldn't name three players on either team.

Stars of the show: 1) Tulsa QB Paul Smith, 2) Bowling Green QB Tyler Sheehan, 3) Tulsa LB Chris Chamberlain
Yep, I'm a d-bag.

Tiz, I understand your discontent, but can't we all get past the fact that things are how they are. We are a "mid-major" as much as it pains us to say it. We should embrace any pub we get. I thought it was a great pic of Tyler. Who gives a rats ass if our game will be considered "good football" or not? Personally, I think the GMAC bowl is going to be one of the top 3 games of this bowl season once all is said and done. I don't care if it's considered good or bad football. I just think it will be a damn fun game to watch.
I also understand that you think this writer doesn't know jack about BG. Well, let's be real. There are 119 teams to be covered. All-in-all, I think these guys do a respectable job trying to keep track of every single team. Would it be nice to get more recognition? Yep. Is it realistic at this point in time? No. Quick question? Can you name 3 players on UL-Monroe's team? Don't check their roster, can you name 3 on-the spot? Probably not, but I'm willing to bet that they might be able to. Give them a break. I really have no qualms with the coverage foxsports provides.

Utah/Navy was a great game last night! I don't care what teams are in what bowls...I watch as many as I can. These "Bowl ratings" are all personal opinion anyway.

Folks that KNOW know the GMAC Bowl is usually one of the best every year. Only 17 days til the game, now. GO FALCONS!
