Famous Idaho Potato(e) Bowl

[ButtFumble 5,246]

live from the smurf turf, baked, fried, scalloped, mashed, smashed, hashed, scattered. covered, smothered

W. Meatchicken goes for it on 4th and 2 and BYU holds

BYU ball for the first time

[SDG 3,335]

I hate that field. Hopefully it’ll change once Safeway full absorbs Albertsons.

technically Albertsons took over Safetyway

punts traded then BYU takes the ball after a "special teams miscue" and moves it and scores with a 30 yard pass

7-0 BYU

[ButtFumble 5,246]

BYU drives down the field then answers with their own failed 4th and 2 WM takes over still 7-0 BYU

[ButtFumble 5,246]

BYU takes a punt drives to the 50 and tries a reverse where the ball carrier gets smashed just as he is about to pitch the reverse and WM recovers the fumble

WM moves it to the 33 and goes for it on 4th and 3 and gets a 33 yard TD

7-7 tied up

[ButtFumble 5,246]

both teams have fits and spurts on offense, but WM finally gets the ball and goes for a FG with 24 seconds left in the half

10-7 WM

[pops 7,121]

Two shitty football teams on a shitty field.

BYU takes second half kick off down the field for a TD

14-10 BYU

[pops 7,121]

Then they rough the kicker. WMU with a another chance

I’m always surprised at how many Pacific Islanders are Mormon.

yea they made a big push in the islands in the way back

the Tech coach needs to try and keep some of his ties to the Tongans ect from Utah especially on the lines

Now consider that this game allowed the winner a crack at advancing into the next round of a playoff? An otherwise shitty game would take on an entirely different meaning. Attendance and TV would be all over it, looking (hoping) for the next Cinderella. Of course we would have to run it by Reece and his boys, you know eye test and all.

[ButtFumble 5,246]

37 yard run up the gut for BYU

21-10 BYU

It’s always fun watching P12 games and the announcers struggling to pronounce the names.

I like the late night early AM Hawaii games with their home announcer that can rattle off the names perfectly and he gets excited for the action of either team....good way to end hours of watching football

[SDG 3,335]

BYU just blew this thing open. 

[spystud13 2,371]

Strong effort by the DB there. 

[ButtFumble 5,246]

BYU gets the ball and almost loses it on a RB fumble that goes out of bounds before WM can control the recovery then BYU throws a 70 yard pass (with a great catch) and juke move

28-10 BYU

[ButtFumble 5,246]

INT BYU run back to the 30 of WM

"extracurriculars" occur as the game starts to get out of hand

[ButtFumble 5,246]

a couple of good runs and a roughing the passer get BYU down to the 3

second and 2 holding on the D half the distance to the goal

first and goal at the 1....toss back to the RB up the gut for a TD

35-10 BYU

[SDG 3,335]

I’m only watching because we’ll be in a college football desert in a few short weeks.

shit I am going to watch all I can and yea not looking forward to the end of the season

funny after you brought it up the announcers started struggling/butchering with some of the names I think it was because some BYU second string came in for a couple of special plays

Meatchicken is fucking idiotic. I expect that from OSU fans.

I’m off work until the 4th so I can watch everything.  The media departments meet with the announcers during production meeting but teams with multiple players or second + stringers always bring the lutz.  

[ButtFumble 5,246]

42-10 BYU has blown this up like a baked potato from a potato cannon hitting a passing car

[ButtFumble 5,246]

49-18 BYU 3:34 left basically game over

[SDG 3,335]

Everything about that game said bad, but I enjoyed it.  

[ButtFumble 5,246]

the earlier game turned out to be much better even though it started worse

While on the dancing potato, here are a few bowl mascots that aren't as tasty when fried:

Mark the tape because in June when you’re forced to pay attention to family, or worse attend a lame wedding, you are gonna dream about a game like this.
