    One of these does not belong.
    I'm inferring that you're included in the ellipsis, so yes, you do not belong.

      Is it true that Utah has sold less than 5,000 tickets? No wonder the Las Vegas bowl was rooting against the Utes in the rivalry game.

            Wow. Football really has caught up to basketball at the U.

              Utah will be well-represented at the Vegas Bowl. The game is still 2 weeks away, and many Ute fans are buying tickets through UNLV (and not the Crimson Club, which always gets shitty, overpriced seats for bowl games).

              Tina Kunzler-Murphy is a b-word.

                I don't think I will be there. It's always been tough to go to any bowl game just a few days before Christmas. Anyway, tickets just barely went on sale.

                  I keep trying to convince myself I should go. I bet I could even get someone to cover my shift that night. But travel is a pain, and I would feel really guilty going on a trip like that sans girlfriend.

                          There have been 41 bowl games since 2000 that featured a double-digit spread. The underdog is 26-14-1 ATS and 12-29 straight up. That includes the last time Boise was a double-digit favorite in a bowl game (-11.5 vs ECU in 2007; they lost 41-38).

                            I don't remember Boise ever winning a bowl game by a large margin. It seems that every bowl they play in is always one of the games of the year, that comes down to a last possession.

                            The ECU game, 2 against TCU, Oklahoma, I remember a bowl against Louisville that was the picture perfect example of a shootout.

                              Their first 3 bowl games were Humanitarian Bowls. They won those by 3, 15, and 18. Since then, they're 3-4 with a combined MOV of 11 (margin of defeat: 14).

                                Was the Utah/TCU game a final possession affair? I forget.
