When LSU and Texas Tech meet on Dec. 29 in the Advocare V100 Texas Bowl, two different and distinct styles of play will go head-to-head as a treat for old school fans and the new generation. The Texas Bowl has a short-lived history taking over from the previously named Houston Bowl, but this postseason game has a strong lineage of top college talent showcasing their skills before taking off for the NFL. The Texas Bowl has a MVP list that includes Rutgers running back Ray Rice (2006), TCU quarterback Andy Dalton (2007), and Texas A&M quarterback Ryan Tannehill (2011).
