Recap: Bowl Week 1

LET'S PARTY. WHO'S LSU?

The holiday season for college football has just started, and already we had some tight finishes and some interesting match ups. The first and opening week of the bowl season started off with a bang, and then finished with an unlikely upset. Let's get onto the bowls.

New Mexico Bowl: Temple 37, Wyoming 15

Temple came out swinging against Wyoming, jumping to a 21-0 lead in the first half of the Gildan New Mexico Bowl on Saturday. After that, there wasn't much Wyoming could do.

Bernard Pierce ran for two early touchdowns and Coyer threw for 169 yards and the touchdown to help Temple overwhelm Wyoming 37-15 in the New Mexico Bowl -- the first bowl game of the season.

The Owls (9-4) had three interceptions -- tying a New Mexico Bowl record -- en route to the second bowl victory in school history. The first interception came at the start of the second quarter when Temple's Kee-arye Griffin picked off Smith's pass to setting up Matt Brown's 1-yard touchdown run that gave the Owls a 21-0 lead, and just about the rest of the game.
