GMAC (aka Basketball) Bowl

Bob thinks many who left at halftime now kicking themselves.

I flipped to it a couple times during the evening, but when I saw Marshall down 30 at the half I kinda lost interest. Who'd think they'd score over 60 points and win in OT!

I watched most of it, at first enjoying Marshal being down by so much, and then amazed how ECU stopped playing defense.

It wasn't really a great comeback so much as a very sloppy game with all of the turnovers and dropped passes. That poor ECU coach had the sickest look on his face starting with their 30 point lead. It is almost as if he feared coughing up that lead so much that it gave a vibe to his players that he had no confidence in them.

Two bowl games down, twenty-three to go. Tonight I'm for the Wolfpack.

I just saw that it was halftime and around 10 p.m. eastern. What time did that thing end?? I kinda like Marshall, but I'm glad I didn't stay up.

Bob doesn't much like Marshall. Game ended after 12:30 ET if Bob recalls correctly. Good game. Leftwich good QB. Bob would like his Heisman chances...if he played in SEC/Big something.

Recall - Marshall had it (lost huge lead late) done TO them in MAAC Champ. game by Toledo - geez, do these mid-majors play any defense??
