Scouting The Bowl Games (23-24)

[*bfine32*]

I usually do this every year and I used to do it much earlier, but with the Bengals still in contention, transfer portal, and opt-outs I haven't gotten into the College Bowls, but I plan to change that over the next few days.

If any draftniks around here have a report on a fav that has already played, please share and definately give your thoughts on players moving forward.

I will list the upcoming bowls daily:

12/29/23

GATOR BOWL/ 12:00/ ESPN
CLEMSON v. UK

Prospects:

WILL SHIPLEY/RB/CLEM: Think how SF use Run CMC/Deboo Sanders. Now think one level lower
RAY DAVIS/RB/UK: Much travelled RB who can feature as a bell-cow or Change of Pace RB
**Personal Connection: I served with Octavious Oxendine's (UK/DE) dad in the Military

SUN BOWL/ 2:00/ CBS
UND v. OREGON ST

Prospects:

UND: XAVIER WATTS/S/UND: Former WR, Former LB who has found a home at SS
OSU: SILAS BOLDEN/WR/OSU: Jetterbug WR who excels in the deep game

LIBERTY BOWL/3:30/ ESPN
MEMPHIS v. ISU

Prospects:

JAYLON ALLEN/EDGE/UM; Undersized Edge player with great athletics
JAYDON HIGGINS/WR/ISU: Hey it's a 6'4/ 215 LB WR named Higgins

COTTON BOWL/ 8:30/ ESPN

Prospects:

CADE STOVER/ TE/OSU: The character Zac craves. Can blow, catch, run (and play LB in a pinch)
CODY SCHRADER/RB/MIZZOU: The SEC leading RB that no one knows about
