Roady's Humanitarian Bowl

Bowling Green vs. Idaho

Robert Guliano on why BG will win: This is a battle of the middle of the pack. The middle of the MAC against the middle of the WAC. Defense is sure to be a little in the lack. BG’s Tyler Sheehan is a potent quarterback. He is bound to toss the Vandal’s a little off track. Look out for all the yards that Freddy Barnes can rack. I just don’t think the Vandals can sack the Falcon attack.
Anyway………………………………………………..


BG Players to Watch:

3. QB Tyler Sheehan- Three straight years with 20 touchdowns. That’ll do.
2. The stands- Should be all Falcon fans. I am still not entirely convinced people live in Idaho.
1. Freddie Barnes- Over 1500 yards receiving and 16 touchdowns. You wouldn’t be the only one watching him closely because he has legitimate NFL potential.

Brandon Hickey on why Idaho will win: Yes, you’re reading that right. The Idaho Vandals are in a bowl game! The past two years of Idaho football had been terrible, with only one win over a division one opponent and a 70-0 blowout at Arizona. But Idaho coach Robb Akey instilled some kind of confidence is his team and they somehow came out with a 7-5 record. Anyway, a vandal is apparently “a person who willfully or ignorantly destroys or mars something beautiful or valuable (dictionary.com)” Let’s look at it this way: the game of football is a beautiful game and the vandals are used to willfully destroying it. This year, Idaho has a high flying offense, scoring 21 or more points in every single game.

3. QB Nathan Enderle-Enderle has been the Vandals’ stalwart behind center. He has thrown for 18 touchdowns this year and over 2600 yards. He has only 667 friends on Facebook.
2. Proximity-Boise is only 5 hours from Vandal Headquarters in Moscow. Moscow, Idaho, not USSR.
1. Former Senator Larry Craig and Sarah Palin-The Idaho alums will be prouder of their football team than their political standing. No jokes needed here.

The Compromise: Bowling Green knocks the potatoes out of Idaho in a shootout 48-42.
