Houston's bowl game survives
For some time, it looked like Houston's college football bowl game was going to die (since it wasn't able actually to honor their financial commitments from last season).
Today, though, the NCAA renewed the bowl after hearing from a Texans-affiliated group and the Harris County Sports Authority.
It looks to be about as thrilling as ever:
The game, which does not yet have a title sponsor, will be played Dec. 28 at Reliant Stadium. It will pair the Big 12 Conference's No. 8 team against the Big East's No. 4 team. Conference USA is also included in the bowl contract.
Frankly, that just sounds terrible.
UPDATE (06-29-2006) : I like the headline in the Dallas Morning News story. Replacement Bowl seems as good a name as any!
