Rice's Day in the Sun has Arrived

Memphis-Now that game day is here. The Owl's will be out to prove that you can have a balance of academics and athletics. Yes, they are still having to prove themselves for the wrong reasons. People still refer to as academic only with athletics, as just something to do. Too bad that mentality still exist on campus. But, athletics has overcome the obstacle's in front of them. And with that the alumni has come home to roost. And roosting they are. The recruiting has definitely improved. And players in the NFL doesn't hurt either. Both Defenses will step up today. SEC versus Conference USA. Rice wins coin flip. Will receive.

   It hasn't been mistakes, just not being able to overcome the SEC push. After scoring early in the 1st qtr. A 1yd run by Charles Ross.(7-0) They've not been to sustain drives to score again. They've also not been able to get close enough for PK Chris Boswell to give a chance to kick a field goal.

   For their answer Mississippi State, has scored 27 unanswered points. All by the air. Mississippi State QB Prescott has the most TD passes by a Mississippi State QB in a bowl game.(27-7) The lead ties an SEC bowl record.

  The trenches will decide this game. Only because 1 mistake, (fumble loss by Mississippi State). Stay tune,...
