R+L CARRIERS NEW ORLEANS BOWL Mercedes-Bens Superdome New Orleans, LA Nevada Wolfpack (7-5) vs. Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns (8-4), 11:00 AM , 3-16
Rajin Cajun Head Coach Mark Hudspeth has a master's in school administration from UCA and was a graduate assistant coach in 1992; later he visited Estes several times as head coach of North Alabama in early 2000s. Nevada usually can put up a bunh of yards and points.
12/26/14: ZAXBY'S HEART OF DALLAS BOWL Cotton Bowl Stadium Dallas, TX Illinois Fighting Illini (6-6) vs. Louisiana Tech Bulldogs (8-5), 1:00 PM (ESPN) , 18-35
Someday UCA will finally beat LTU but Big 10 Illini may be in for a tough game.
12/27/14: HYUNDAI SUN BOWL Sun Bowl El Paso, TX Arizona State Sun Devils (9-3) vs. Duke Blue Devils (9-3), 2:10 PM (CBS), 36-31
Hoping former UCA star Mike Norvell has a big day calling plays for the Sun Devils.
12/29/14: RUSSELL ATHLETIC BOWL Florida Citrus Bowl Orlando, FL Oklahoma Sooners (8-4) vs. Clemson Tigers (9-3), 5:30 PM (ESPN), 6-40...yikes
Lots of Sooner fans in western Arkansas and many others would love to see OU lose. Kudos to OU for playing UCA in various sports.
ADVOCARE V100 TEXAS BOWL NRG Stadium Houston, TX Arkansas Razorbacks (6-6) vs. Texas Longhorns (6-6), 9:00 PM (ESPN), 31-7
Hoping for former UCA star and Texas Head Coach Charlie Strong to have a great game so he can have another D1 winning season.
12/31/14: CHICK-FIL-A PEACH BOWL Georgia Dome Atlanta, GA Ole Miss Rebels (9-3) vs. TCU Horned Frogs (11-1), 12:30 PM (ESPN), 3-42
Ole Miss as a UCA opponent from a couple years back will have their hands very full with Frogs.
1/2/15:
TICKETCITY CACTUS BOWL Sun Devil Stadium Tempe, AZ Washington Huskies (8-5) vs. Oklahoma State Cowboys (6-6), 10:15 PM (ESPN), 22-30
Pokes will have to play like the OU game to win; Bears play OSU in Stillwater next September in 2nd game....are we sure we want to play these guys next fall? Their FR QB and WRs looked awfully good...hope our pass D can step up a couple notches from this past season.....
1/4/15:
GODADDY BOWL Ladd-Peebles Stadium Mobile, AL Toledo Rockets (8-4) vs. Arkansas State Red Wolves (7-5), 9:00 PM (ESPN), 63-44
Hope the RWs do well against a very good MAAC team.
