my heart is still racing!

Refs called a PI on Ohio that ignited Pokes’ go-ahead drive. Then missed an absolute mugging by Wyoming. Then made up for it with a close call on Wyoming so Cats got their 15 yards after all. Boles iced the kicker who proceeds to miss. Oops! Tries again and makes it. OT ends on that sweet catch. Very satisfying! Another Mountain West falls to the MAC.

Well done Ohio.

Great win for the Green and White! I'm a bit embarrassed with the broadcasting though... Barstool made it a farce and the announcers had no clue what they were talking about.

Glad for the win.. ashamed about the presentation.

What did you expect? It's not like they had access to Dick Enberg or Dave Diles.

First, congrats on the win, Bobcats! Great bowl season for the MAC (for once).

As for the Barstool broadcast, I liked it. Definitely different, but it's a nice break from some of the awful ESPN announcers. It was edgy at times, but they're trying to attract a younger demographic. The Barstool crew was into the game and it's great to see that enthusiasm. I think it was a great move by Barstool sponsoring the Arizona Bowl. Looked like a more than respectable turnout and people seemed to be having a good time.

If Barstool sponsors the Arizona Bowl next year, I predict viewership will be much higher.

Fantastic viewer experience. Hilarious! My dad was cracking up. Emotion and rooting interest, as well as acknowledgement of betting lines is what the sport needs. Heartbreak by an announcer makes a viewer sympathetic or even Fiesty which creates talk and hype online. The kid with the hat cam going to the goal line near the end of the game was brilliant! THAT HAS COST NATIONAL TITLE CONTENDERS... and the idiots over at Barstool figured it out!

Congrats Ohio!!!!

Congrats to Bobkittens.

Huge bounce-back year for Albin and Co.

Tuned in late, but it was an exciting ending. Good win for the Bobcats, my late brother would have been proud.

And the lack of bias by the Barstool commenting team seems like it is without parallel in bowl game commenting.

Did the Barstool announcers talk about the game they were announcing? Or did they spend half the game talking about the upcoming P5 games like the E$PN announcers?
