Famous Idaho Potato Bowl

  The Famous Idaho Potato Bowl is played at Albertson Stadium in Boise, Idaho. The two teams playing this year are Eastern Michigan and San Jose State. For this game, I picked San Jose State solely on the terms that I hate the state of Michigan. 

I was super down for the first half. Chevan Cordeiro got a touchdown at the beginning of the game. Then, Justin Lockhart got a touchdown giving San Jose State a huge advantage in the beginning. Then Eastern Michigan answered with a 2-point conversion which of course wasn’t enough to get them that far, but they did get a touchdown after that. 

Eastern Michigan dominated the second quarter. Darius Lassiter got a field goal for them. Then, Samson Evans proceeded to get a second touchdown which put Eastern Michigan ahead. Then at the end of the quarter, Darius Lassiter got a touchdown. 

Eastern Michigan also started the third quarter strong, Jesus Gomez got a field goal. But, finally, San Jose State was able to answer with a touchdown, putting them back into this game. Eastern Michigan though answered with a touchdown on the behalf of Jaylon Jackson and also got a two-point conversion.

In the fourth quarter, San Jose State did get a touchdown, but this was not enough for them to win this game. The ending score was 41-27 which was disappointing for me because I was rooting for San Jose State. 

BOWL COUNT: 7/11
