Las Vegas Bowl

It might have been even shorter had Jameer Khan not gone down with an apparent chest injury after just 17 snaps in his place.

Caleb Benning saw most action he's seen since the Las Vegas Bowl.

While it appeared he had an issue on... at least one of Indiana's long touchdown passes.

Benning scored better than any black shirt per PFF.

Uh, when I was at Wiscon- I mean, at, at, uh, Utah, we had an incredible defense.

We w- uh, went to the Vegas Bowl and beat USC in the Vegas Bowl.

Hello.

And that was with Carson Palmer at quarterback.

They're battling back and forth.

That season ends up being a disaster that culminates with the absolute beat down against BYU at the Las Vegas Bowl.

One of the greatest professional weeks of my life, because I spent eight nights paid for at The Venetian.

[laughs]

I love change, man.

I, I love all that.

But what happened was when, um, we started having this, this, this breakdown and accumulation at, uh, that Las Vegas Bowl, I found out later that not only were, what you noticed, players out, but p- I had heard that players were getting free...

You know, you go to the crap table, the 21 tables, and they'll give you-

I'm not either.

Las Vegas, Missouri, Las Vegas Bowl, Oklahoma.

That's not what you want right now, but that would be a fun trip for MIZ over there.

Tennessee ReliaQuest Bowl.

I wrestled with that one too, since they had three wins and we're not quite to the midpoint of the season, you know, I'm giving them a win against Sanford and, and against Arkansas.

So.

five they'll need to find an upset somewhere since they were so close i kind of figured at this point let's keep them in the bowl projections until we get a little bit beyond the midpoint of the season mike you did mention something on missouri and the las vegas bowl that bowl has moved up the pecking order so it's a pretty good bowl game now but on the other side of the projection i had usc and i'm just sitting here thinking about i know we're far off But man, USC's defense is just so bad.

And Austin Simmons could just throw for like 500 yards against that defense.

A couple that I've seen to have them in the Liberty Bowl against a Big 12 opponent such as Kansas State.

And I'm still seeing these Vegas Bowl predictions against USC.

Saw one of those today.

Would you rather go to the Liberty Bowl and play Kansas State or would you rather go to Vegas and play USC?

BYU won that matchup 20-7 at Lavelle Edwards Stadium.

And in 2008, Arizona ended up getting the best of them in the Vegas Bowl 31-21.

In addition...

Sonny Dyke's father, Spike, was the head coach of Texas Tech.

You lost to M- to Memphis.

You can't lose to Memphis, okay? You lost to, um, U of A in 2008 in the Vegas Bowl, okay? You can't...

You know, if you wanna be considered, and that was an above average, good P-4, P-4, P-5 team at the time.

We barely, by the skin of our teeth, beat UCLA, a 500 team, in the Vegas Bowl in 2007.

Like, we, we gotta be better than that.

We gotta be...
