Today’s thread commemorates the 2000 Snow Bowl between Texas A&M and Mississippi State, two teams that know all about snow.

Wednesday Night Lights saw Missouri State beating Middle Tennessee 22-20, and Liberty, Liberty defeating UTEP 19-8. Thursday had nothing of note either, victories for Kennesaw State, Tulane, Jacksonville State, and Southern Miss. Friday had large margins of victory, USF put up 63 points against North Texas, Washington won handily over Rutgers, and Colorado State took home a convincing win over Fresno State.

And now…the big day. The Saturday. Illinois and Missouri gonna try and prove they belong with the big dogs. Indiana looks to keep it going against Oregon, quite the Big 10 Backyard Brawl. So far Arch Manning has been less successful than the Arch Deluxe, Oklahoma’s probably salivating at the thought (of the quarterback, not the burger). #6 Oklahoma vs unranked Texas looks lopsided on paper, but never say never in the Red River Rivalry.
