You Americans have a loose definition of what "terrible food" is. Applebee's is pretty goos as far as I'm concerned.

There was a pretty big discussion about this last year for this game. It was pretty funny, IIRC, so it might be worth looking up.

My personal favorites are "a poor man's BW3" and "a less fun Bennigan's."

Don't know if that makes it the third annual Beef O Brady's Bowl thread, or the II Tampa II thread. Just makes it sad. I'm glad I only created one of them; before I clicked on them I thought I may have started all 3.

They are playing in Tropicana Field which is usually a baseball field. You think with 2 months to get ready they could have done a better job.

It's kind of funny that what

It's kind of funny that what they actually do is just vacuum off the dirt. On TV it looks like patches of turf inserted in, but I was on the field about a month ago and was surprised at how they actually do it.

When the lions played the "Tampa 2" I honestly believe their interpretation of that was to either only cover a guy for two yards, OR only cover 2 players...

It's not *easy* to see the resemblance to Jake, but it's there (at least a little bit).

vs BYU I'm really hoping UCF kicks ass all game long. I am NOT going 2-2 this early. Shooting for a 1 bowl loss season now I hope.
