NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- Even as quarterback Terrance Broadway celebrated Louisiana's first bowl victory at college football's highest level one year ago, there was a part of him left unfulfilled.

''All I was doing was watching, and that hurt,'' said Broadway, who as a 2011 transfer from Houston could practice but not play last season. ''I had practiced all year, ran the scout team, but (did) not have the whole bowl experience. ... Now I have another opportunity, and we're going to try to make the most of it.''
