My new favorite ludicrous bowl game name has to be the Taxslayer Bowl.

It's actually the Gator Bowl. I guess they just ponied up enough money to completely change the name?

Wow. They got rid of the Gator Bowl? That's been around for years. So why not Taxslayer Gator Bowl? Like how they just add corporate crap to old bowls (I'm looking at you Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl).

It's technically still the same game. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/TaxSlayer_Bowl

Yep. Paid more money and got the whole name for the bowl. The worst outcome of this game is that Hackenberg declared for the draft after it. My Bills will probably draft him in the first round because Buffalo Bills and I'll have to watch him Trent Edwards balls to opposing defenses for three years.

As a Penn State fan my reaction was "thanks for nothing." He hasn't shown anything in college to indicate he's worth drafting high. It's just the "intangibles" are there, so he's automatically good.

6'4" 220 prototypical qb. Highly touted at beginning of year then shit the bed. Although penn state's o-line was pretty bad. I don't see him doing shit in the NFL. Good qbs make olines better. Nobody's complained about the Patriot's o-line for the last 15 years.

Exactly. And those same scouts are the reason Brady didn't get drafted until the 6th round. The truth is that most of the time, the so called experts have no idea what they're talking about.
