2024 Famous Idaho Potato Bowl - Northern Illinois vs. Fresno State


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Fresno St kicker is the best ever, or second best?

I actually went to this game with some UM buddies about 20  years ago.  Big win for the Canes against Nevada Reno on a clear night with a high of about 25.  Got pictures with Greg Olson and Calais Campbell on the blue turf after the game.

How the hell do you allow a blocked punt deep in your own end right before the half? Terrible football. How the hell did NIU beat Notre Dame?

Missed the FG from a very easy distance. Terrible special teams.

To add insult to injury, looks like NIU Football's Twitter account was hacked during the game. It's currently pumping crypto.

sftu, Lowell.  Is the headcoach a blubbering mess?  On what basis do you think they're celebrating the fucking potato bowl against Fresno State like they celebrated beating Notre Dame.

Gotta love these bowl games where nothing happens for 4 quarters and now all of the crazy plays are not only being pulled out but are working.

One of the reasons I do the bowl mania is to give me a reason to watch these type of games and having some rooting interest.

Congrats NIU. Happy for them! Great Win! 
 

I want to call out ESPN for referring to the Bulldogs repeatedly on the screen as the Bulldongs thru out their broadcast. Thank you ESPeen! Wow!

This bowl and the Cheezits bowl are my favorites the last few years. This year the Snoop Dogg Arizona Bowl presented by Gin & Juice by Dre enters the fray. I will have to check it out.
