The best part of covering postseason college football, hands down, is making jokes about the awesome and horrible and horribawesome gifts the players get. The second-best part is perusing the bowl week marketing materials for wacky events and tiny, poignant hilarities, and the Humanitarian Bowl website is already going to be a clubhouse leader, we can tell.
The organizers are so eager to pad their list of Quick Humanitarian Bowl Facts that they list the administrative assistant’s name as a tidbit of interest. (Shoutout to Tamra, who gets to live someplace with real mountains and work in college football, and whose life we therefore envy.) But what really grabs us is all the beef-related goings-on Northern Illinois and Fresno State were involved with in Boise this week:
Humanitarian Bowl, Northern Illinois Vs. Fresno State: Try The Beef
Tuesday, December 14th
• 3:00-5:00pm – Certified Angus Bowl for Beef: Westy’s Lanes
Wednesday, December 15th
• MAC Bowl for Beef Dinner
• WAC Bowl for Beef Dinner
See how they snuck bowling into bowl week? That’s a big thing. And the way this is structured, it almost seems like the teams were killing their own game with bowling balls to eat the next night, but that’s probably too much to ask for.
The 2010 Humanitarian Bowl kicks off at 5:30 p.m. EST. Browse our complete 2010 college football postseason schedule, and connect with Northern Illinois fans at SB Nation’s Red And Black Attack.
