George, in one episode, explained to an NBC executive why people would watch the sitcom that he and Jerry proposed.
"They did things defensively tonight they hadn't done all year", Arbuckle said. If I were capable of feeling shame about enjoying a sporting event, it would've been while watching this game.
Game sponsor AutoNation presented a $1 million check to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation following the end of the first quarter. TV dollars in search of football game to air drive bowl games.
Neither team brings an elite defense to the table, but Georgia State does have one of the better passing games in the, well, game.
Kenny Potter scored on a 42-yard run and threw a 1-yard touchdown pass to Josh Oliver in San Jose State's 27-16 comeback victory over Georgia State on Saturday night in the inaugural Cure Bowl.
San Jose State ended the half with a hail mary touchdown that was called back. If a Caragher team earns bowl eligibility, there should be a spot for his club.
Beyond a career-ending bowl game, however, Ervin also had a chance to set some program records. But we hear that every year when the NCAA's 64-team basketball tournament field is announced.
San Jose State's charitable contributions and community service participation locally for the day also included running backs Malik Roberson and Jarrod Lawson, offensive tackle Nate Velichko, wide receiver Tim Crawley, safety Simon Connette and kicker Bryce Crawford visiting the Florida Hospital, the area's number-one hospital dedicated to furthering women's health and wellness. Ervin had 146 yards of the total 197 yards of team rushing for San Jose State. The Panthers joined the Football Bowl Subdivision three years ago after famed coach Bill Curry retired.
Georgia State won four straight and five of their last seven to secure the program's first bowl appearance in just its sixth year of existence. We were talking about winning a bowl game and getting a winning season. The best part of the contest was both the punting and punt returning. Georgia State DE Carnell Hopson left with a leg injury, San Jose State OL Chris Gonzalez went down with a knee injury and Spartans TE Billy Freeman fell immediately after catching a 5-yard pass. Freeman left with a foot injury and didn't return. Even though they'll finish with a losing record, they have a trophy, and that's what matters.
McCaffrey, the runner-up in the Heisman voting, led the nation in all-purpose yards with 268.9 yards per game. And, despite two players leaving the team - leaving Georgia State with only 69 scholarship players and fourteen seniors - the Panthers lost to two eventual bowl teams (UL-Lafayette and South Alabama) by three points each. Potter passed for 1,895 and 14 touchdowns. Punter Michael Carrizosa - one of three finalists for the Ray Guy Award - averages 47.7 yards per punt, with 19 of his 43 attempts being downed inside the 20.
The game was close up until the end. San Jose State's excellent secondary did a good job of limiting prolific Georgia State quarterback Nick Arbuckle, while the Panthers prevented explosive Spartans running back Tyler Ervin from generating any big plays.
