MWC (and other) Bowl Tie-Ins

Ok... the dust has settled on the season for a good few hours and I'm getting excited for a holiday time bowl game vacation! As a young fan, (a bit ago) it helped me navigate the whole bowl series system when someone broke down what conferences are attached to what bowls. Here are the Mountain West ...

Does anyone else feel like they're watching Bonner play whenever Hillstead is on the field?
Which Bonner, the 2021 or 2022? The 2021 had one of the best years ever as an Aggie QB.
Both. Hopefully Hillstead's progression matures in the opposite direction of Bonner, though!

Finally used the turf I bought last year!

After only a year of trying to figure out the best place to display my two pieces of Aggie turf, I finally decided to use it in the redesign of the landscaping around my shed in the backyard. Best footpad for the swing ever! https://i.postimg.cc/tZQ9LFRS/20230820-153047.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/NL86...

Re: Bench the Boo Birds!!!

The boos were for the play calls and for the coach sending out an injured player to get destroyed over and over again. There's 5 pages of a thread that have discussed this at length already. This post should be moved to that thread.

Re: Have to agree with coach

All I know is that since none of our high school coaches explicitly explained how to properly affix the jockstrap, one of our running backs wore his backwards over top of his whitey-tighties for the first game. That kid might actually not be qualified to have an opinion. 🤣
