2020 Bowl Watch

I hope they send the CCU dirty birds to the Cure Bowl and UL to another more prestigious bowl closer. I am sure we are lobbying for our best opportunity.

Seeing the First Responder Bowl vs. UTSA.

Coastal asked that it be cancelled. Coastal gets what coastal wants.

SMU backed out of the bowl because of COVID issues. Left UTSA with no bowl opponent so UTSA moved to the First Responders Bowl. SMU fell apart at the end of the year so they didn't want to risk a loss vs UTSA. Frisco Bowl could find no teams to fill their bowl date so they cancelled the bowl.

Maybe the yellow ROSE of TX bowl this year....

Being the name has yellow in it, good place for CCU.

It was cancelled on Dec 15.
They tried to find opponents but not enough time because the bowl was scheduled to be played on Dec 19. Many teams were playing championship and makeup games yesterday.
