Well yeah, but that was before the unexpected upset of the Scarlette Knights.

Appy State with the 56-28 win. Man, wonder what a game with Michigan would look like this year?

Yes, I was playing off of the whole John Denver Country Roads thing there. Everyone and their grandma thinks that he wrote the song about WV (including WV University), but in reality it was about west VA, which contains all of the geographical features that he mentions in the lyrics.
Whatever.  It’s ours now.

I’d rather play Army anyway.  Tennessee can take their 3-7 record and stay home.

This is not a good vintage of Army, but I'd rather them than a Vols team that probably wants no part of it

Today's slate

Idaho Potato Bowl
3:30, ESPN
Tulane v. Nevada

A tale of two seasons for these teams.  Nevada started the season 5-0 before a couple tough losses to finish 6-2. Tulane started off 2-4 before rebounding with some strong wins and their only loss being a double overtime one to Tulsa.  Might be a fun game - Nevada loves to throw and Tulane is just ok against the pass.  Tulane has been the better team (47th on FEI v. 72 for Nevada) but it's supposed to be chilly in Boise, so let's see how the Louisiana team handles that.

Boca Raton Bowl
7 pm, ESPN
UCF v. BYU

Hell yeah this is more like it.  These are two good teams (UCF 26th on FEI, BYU is 4th!).  BYU is led by probable first round draft pick QB Zach Wilson, and has flattened most of the teams they've played, with Coastal Carolina as the one glaring but very fun exception.  UCF has been pretty strong offensively too, with all three of their losses being very close high scoring affairs.  The over/under in this game is 70.5, so no on expects a defensive slugfest.  Get out your adding machines, as Brent Musberger would say.

Yes, I know of that particular technicality, but I am not buying that John Denver wrote the song about the tiny little Eastern Panhandle of WV that is nestled between Maryland and Pennsylvania.
I call B.S.

The geographic features are in both Virginia states and Maryland. The writer of the song (Bill Danoffcame up with most of the lyrics while driving winding roads in Maryland. He changed adjusted Maryland to West Virginia to help the song have a better ring. And again the features mentioned are large and winding and in multiple states.
