Three reasons to watch the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl: Utah St. vs. Akron

Utah State has grown accustomed to success. Akron is just starting to learn what that means.

These programs will meet in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl at 3:30 p.m. ET Tuesday at Albertsons Stadium in Boise, Idaho. But both have gotten here on virtually opposite paths.

The Aggies have been in a bowl each of the past five seasons, and they’ve been in this specific game in all but two of those years. Akron on the other hand? The seniors on this team endured a 1-11 season as freshmen, and the program hasn’t been to a bowl game in a decade.
