Armed Forces Bowl

[Tom Brown]

I'm pulling for Rice and the Fightin'avid Bailiffs. He's a "Gold Nugget Stud!"

AF's unis are pretty sweet!

My thread beat yours by one minute, TB!

 

[10 Key Frog]

Why are the endzones painted? That'll kill the grass.

I saw that too. I knew that would happen. I shouldve just waited.

I just noticed the herringbone pattern on AF's uni's is made up of Stealths

 

[Ron Swanson]

Pulling for Rice because they were my team growing up, but my love for the Owls has dwindled over the years, and our years in the MWC have given me a soft spot for the AFA. Won't be real pissed either way

Decent showing on the east side.

 

[Bonner4Prez]

Student section looks full. Air force has cool helmets

 

[frognutz]

Can Air Force finally win a game in AGC stadium? The world is dyin' to know.

 

[NubomTurk]

TCU student attendance at AGC today is deplorable.

I tried to see if the game was on radio locally so I could mute Beth. Might have to see if I can strem it on Houston station.

They beat the hell out of UH there a few seasons ago.

Her voice does sound like a foghorn. Have nothing against women doing play-by-play...just foghorns doing play-by-play.

 

[Limp Lizard]

Definite helmet-to-helmet by AFA on a Rice player. Where is all the whining about why that wasn't called? Bet in at least one of the games today it will be called for a much less blatant play or the announcers will whine that a flag should have been thrown.

I'm going for the Owls here. Need an upset victory in my bowl pool. Rutgers majorly let me down yesterday.

Her Yankee roots (I'm assuming) really come out every time she pronounces Wes Cobb's name. "And it's KAHB again!"

 

[Tom Brown]

I have no problems with Beth Foghorn Leghorn, I have the game on mute.

When it's a ball carrier rathet than a receiver ir a receiver who had become a ball carrier it's a lot more difficult to determine, especially among the tangled masses. It's more difficult to "target" a player. In this instance the AFA player was already in position before the Rice player even lowered his head. It's kind of the equivalent of a charge in basketball. There was nothing really the AFA player could have done.
