The bowl season has begun, with some tight contests going down to the wire and some absolute blowouts. We’ve already had our first matchup of ranked teams, with #23 Troy nipping #22 UTSA in the Cure Bowl, and one more ranked team with #14 Oregon State committing an act of animal cruelty in its 30-3 dismantling of Florida in the Las Vegas Bowl.
Our beloved Huskies tripped up in the desert this year, and without that misstep would’ve been playing for the Pac-12 title and a trip to the CFP. Even with the ASU loss, a USC win would’ve almost certainly landed us in the Rose Bowl, but when the Trojans got blasted by the Utes, we settled for a berth in the Alamo Bowl.
