Army bowl-less for now and more on Independents.

 Yes, the Covid mess continues to wreak havoc, but how can Army not have  bowl opponent when every healthy team is getting an invitation,  Liberty(9-1) gets to play undefeated Coastal Carolina (Sun Belt) in the Cure Bowl and while it's an interesting regional match up why is neither team playing a P5 opponent.  CCU wins a nailbiter 34-33.
BYU should beat an explosive UCF (AAC) squad 54-51 in the Boca Raton Bowl.

Zach Wilson  tossed for 425 yards and 3 TDs in BYU's 49-23 thrashing of UCF and definitely moved up to a round 1  pick in 2021 NFL draft.

Liberty fumbled the ball on the goal line blowing a chance  to win in regulation, then blocked a Coastal Carolina FG attempt in OT to hang on for a 37-34 OT win. The QBs were great:  Grayson McCall CCU (21-32, 318 YDS, 3 TD) ,  Malik Willis LIB (21 CAR, 137 YDS, 4 TD)
And  how about CCU WR, Jaivon Heiligh (13 REC, 178 YDS).
One and one so far.

I didn't  pick a winner on the Army/WVU game.  Austin Kendall threw 2 TD passes in the final 19 minutes during West Virginia's comeback from a 21-10 deficit. WVU 24 Army 21.

  1. Heard TN might have backed out. Army against WVU?

  2. I like the Liberty - Costal Carolina matchup. That should be a great to watch. However, no P5 wants to play'em.
