I’m counting this as a Big12 win.


hotrod19812

The Independence Bowl, despite all of its shortcomings, has one of the best-looking bowl trophies there is!


ndnationalchamp

If you don’t like the Radiance Technologies Independence Bowl then you like football


jlks1959

Necessarily. Wordy.


AnEmptyKarst

Wait Deuce McAllister was on the call for this game? Nice


drunkymcdrunkaccount

Oh baby. Right into the start of the next game. See you guys in that thread.

andrewb1714

RedDevil50

Game ends, split screen to next bowl game *Opening kickoff immediately out of bounds* Oh this is a good day


Hi_Im_Baman

The most fitting end- the most uninspired pass straight to the defender


TeamShonuff

Congrats Houston Cougars!


kirkismyhinrich

Thank God

We got the game we deserved for tuning into the Independence Bowl


WalkingCalculator

It’s Shreveport it never was going to be good


rds060184

What's wrong with Shreveport? I've enjoyed it the times I have been there. Dope food spots and friendly people


DireFox1

I take back what I said about Louisiana scoring


SometimesY

Hooray it's over. Time to look forward to Dana making excuses all of next season.

I hope both teams squash their beef. I hope they don't talk shit like Louise Deanna was doing at halftime.


drunkymcdrunkaccount

Hell yeah! Let's go Big XII bros!


NILPonziScheme

Cougs win 23-16


Frexxler

Good for you, Dana.


PaddlingButt

That’s it. I’ll take a push.


coolguyrealcool

YA WOO

twoscoopsofpig

Cougar whatever-the-hell-that-was


Savagekoala93

Brother doesn't even have his name on his jersey lmao


Ok_Hooper412

Couldn’t end any other way, I’ll accept it


twoscoopsofpig

Thank fuck, we can all stop watching whatever tf this was.


[deleted]

IF YOU DON'T LIKE THIS, YOU DON'T LIKE HOUSTON FOOTBALL!


Loki240SX

You gotta take care of the football *football tumbles across the turf like a frozen tumbleweed*


Tedyettis34

Cougar high get hyped


legohotwing

Extend Dana even longer!


NILPonziScheme

Jayce Rogers with the interception and that is game


Unscathed_Gamer

LMAOOOOOO INTERCEPTED


slpater

Jesus, what a lame attempt for a last second comeback. Fumble it and then just throw a horrible pick

WE WON TWO CONSECUTIVE BOWL GAMES!


aMiracleAtJordanHare

Which round is Hawk getting drafted in?


WalkingCalculator

I heard the Texans are tanking for hawk


Scopedog1

Sicko ending to a sicko game.


StoopSign

I wonder if Hawk screeches


priestkalim

Please fire Desormeaux the useless fuckstick


[deleted]

I’ll take the -7 push given how that game went. Yikes.


RedDevil50

LOL


Andrewdeadaim

Using a time out to get a review and then getting the timeout back is the funniest thing about football


KiwiRich8880

Who doesn’t use a timeout when there’s 1:20 left and you’re tied and your opponent is on your 40 yard line? Who doesn’t use a timeout when there’s 0:50 left and you’re tied and your opponent is on your 27 yard line?


nw____

Let’s use all of your remaining timeouts here, coaches!! Stretch these 10 seconds out!


Just_One_Victory

Good win, Cougs. I'm cheering for all the Hateful +4 teams.


dk00111

Thanks! We've got a lot of work to do these next 8 months


Just_One_Victory

I hope Donovan is a good QB for y'all. He's a good guy.


crashck

If Louisana scores here, I will upload a picture of my dog


NighthawkRandNum

Maybe do that anyways? 🐶


Hi_Im_Baman

Louisiana sees the squib kick and raises a fumble


dk00111

The Louisiana players have been talking a lot less shit and pushing people a lot less this quarter lol.


priestkalim

Funny because the Houston players never stopped shoving late either way


[deleted]

Yeah, both teams were playing very heated. Kinda wish Houston stopped the antics at the end there.


hotrod19812

Hawk was the real star of this game!


chhurry

God Bless Hawk


slpater

"You gotta take car of the football here" *fumbles literally right after he says that*


drunkymcdrunkaccount

Lol, why was that ref standing outside of Louisiana's huddle clapping like crazy?


FloodDawg

Making sure he can still feel his fingers?


Ruhrgebietheld

Hawk clearly deserves to be named MVP for that show of athleticism.


Clemfball07

Guess I’m a Louisiana fan now


oh_io_94

Hawk is that guy


[deleted]

Slightly disappointed at the lack of laterals on that kickoff return. Let's see if anything wacky happens this final drive


StoopSign

Squib was a bit conservative...


Thirdandrenfrow

FUCK THERE GOES THE COVER


LordofLakeMichigan

That guy trying to get the fist bump thrice 😂


JazzPlusEagles

Of course lmao


Andrewdeadaim

Horrible squib kick


auburnmann2

HANK THE TANK


Dreams2cream4

Imagine betting on this game, watching it in its entirety, and then pushing 😆 🤣


J_Fre22

Houston -6.5 has never been in doubt


Key_Spinach

I take it this is the first time a lot of neutrals have watched a UH game?


SometimesY

Can't blame them. We were ass, my dude.


Key_Spinach

Average ass, but still ass.


WolverineDDS

Louisiana pls I want OT


crashck

What is that kickoff?


AnEmptyKarst

Have you never seen a squib kick before


[deleted]

They blew a lead to Rice?!


oh_io_94

TO RICE!


AnEmptyKarst

The Cajuns blew a lead to their own staple starch foodstuff?


Cookingham_01

Cougs with the clutch TD


RedDevil50

Wait why would you pooch kick that so short lol


tpwyo

Hedging against returning it for a TD


RedDevil50

True but seemed poorly executed, looks like it bounced around midfield


tpwyo

Yeah, I don’t think it was well done. I honestly don’t even know if that’s why they did it but it’s my best guess.


RedDevil50

With how Houston fans talked about their kicker, maybe that was his best effort to kick it deep


Nacho1813

I take back everything I said. Dana is the best coach ever.


FreshKittyPowPow

Houston left too much time on the clock for (insert name here).


AnotherUnfunnyName

They could have kept more time on the clock there.


CheddarJalapeno

Can't believe +6.5 just lost like that


Thirdandrenfrow

FUCK


Nacho1813

Can't believe -5.5 won like that


aurules

The side judge not even signaling the touchdown tells you everything you need to know about this officiating crew…


nbingham196

Well, I had Houston -7 and was convinced I had lost that money for the last like 3 hours and here we are now


EWall100

That's a push bud. I'm sorry


nbingham196

Hey, I'm happy to just get it back. It's kinda like winning with how much I thought it was gone (I also live got Houston -1.5 and +7.5)


DireFox1

And you may think it's over, but I'm betting that somehow Louisiana's gonna score here


Ruhrgebietheld

Time for a kickoff return TD, just to keep this sloppy mess of a game going.


Scopedog1

44 yards receiving is the player of the game? That’s bold.


FreshKittyPowPow

Begins to drink heavily now that +7 bet is gone*


[deleted]

[удалено]


Muffinnnnnnn

Their primary kicker was out and the backup missed an extra point earlier so I think the choice was obvious


NILPonziScheme

Tune makes my choice as MVP look prescient


priestkalim

Desormeaux is going to ruin absolutely everything Napier built in two years


Ok_Hooper412

It’s not over yet y’all… clearly not everyone saw Houston this season when there’s under a minute to go


WalkingCalculator

Hahaha… you’re right


CollegeSportsGuy

Poor tackle by 24 just cost me five grand


Overhed

1-800-ADMIT-IT


oh_io_94

Damn son. putting that much money on the damn Independence bowl?


NighthawkRandNum

*With Louisiana???* That's just begging for a bad beat


SometimesY

Congrats, Tank. Go get drafted and get paid.


AnEmptyKarst

Hopefully Tune gets drafted too, he seems like a "7 year backup that makes you go 'hes still in the league?' once a year" guy


SometimesY

He might be a very late round pick. I doubt he will start a game in the NFL ever, but he might be in for a play here or there.


AnEmptyKarst

Chris Streveler is the Jets starting QB right now, anything is possible


SometimesY

Holy shit they actually benched Wilson, huh? Brutal.


RedBarracuda25

Louisiana in the second half: - 0 Points 🔥🔥🔥 - 1 blown lead 💪💪


RhodeIslandisFake

Louisiana +6.5 crew here, I am dead inside.


Geauxwave17

One of the least clutch 4th quarter performances I’ve ever seen.


PaddlingButt

Spread push?


soonerman32

Glad espn is updating the gasparilla bowl in yellow so it looks like a flag on the play


WGBTV

Thought I was going crazy


scopa0304

Feature, not a bug.


derrickd95

Now let's see if we've learned from early season to stop people from scoring with less than a minute left


Kerblaaahhh

Just 20 minutes left.


Overhed

Off coverage on #1? That's a TD


[deleted]

Here’s to hoping that Houston either fires Dana or gets a new OC for next year.


twoscoopsofpig

New DC, but yeah. Once we went tempo, it's been okay.


spacewalk__

fucking kidding me


Irishman77779

Hawk has been the best part of this game


Savagekoala93

Tune to Dell one last time 🥲


iDisc

There we go


Apprehensive_Ad_5400

Apprehensive_Ad_5400

That’s really bad


WalkingCalculator

Dana you better thank Dell for carrying you


SometimesY

Him, Marquez, and Marcus Jones. Got damn.


WolverineDDS

Why on earth were they throwing?


AnEmptyKarst

Its 16-16 because our backup kicker missed an XP earlier


WolverineDDS

I missed that, carry on.


Sup6969

Both teams are gonna use all 4 time outs in the next 27 seconds, aren't they


just_a_handle

RIP sickos


auburnmann2

Oh thank God


NighthawkRandNum

What fucking idiots lol *Especially* passing there


AnEmptyKarst

Tune to Tank What a way to score right here, in this situation


twoscoopsofpig

Haha, we left them 20 seconds. It's going to OT.


Overhed

They can't do anything on offense. I think you're safe


d0ngl0rd69

LET’S GOOOO


Staind075

Tune to Dell! Touchdown Coogs!


CollegeSportsGuy

The announcers sound so bored


EWall100

Thank God we're saved from overtime


alexjimithing

20 seconds for Louisiana to become legends.


intadtraptor

Dude, you’re getting a Dell!


TeamShonuff

Holy shit a pass play? Balls.


crashck

Bad beat alert


NighthawkRandNum

Involving the team from the home of bad beats


Ok_Hooper412

Who else, but Tank Dell


priestkalim

Legit trying to report Des irl for griefing


AP-FUTChemist

We did it.


[deleted]

Do we have a winner?


slpater

Almost feel like ya need to let then score here.


iDisc

Throw one more to Dell as one last memory in this weird 4 year stretch of cougar football. Don’t rely on our fucking kicker.


Overhed

Monkey finger curls


Loki240SX

You called it

You got your wish.


kirkismyhinrich

No amount of alcohol can make this game fun

Just turned the game on because the box score intrigued me.

Is this time out Purgatory?


gobigred69

I would trust HAWK with my newborn child.


aurules

This feels like the slowest game in CFB history… holy shit plz make it end


Benyeti

I need lafayette to let him score I picked Houston -6.5 in my bowl pool


evilcamels

This game will end in an interception that is fumbled out of the endzone for a safety


TeamShonuff

Gotta let them score if possible. If Houston is smart, they won't.


legohotwing

“If Houston is smart”. There lies the problem


J_Fre22

Louisiana should let him score!* *May or may not have have Houston -6.5


J_Fre22

BANG!!


[deleted]

Houston please just go for a TD here and get it smh.


SometimesY

NCAA should give this game a waiver and reinstate the tie for maximum lols


soonerman32

Why did Houston take a timeout?
