24. Famous Idaho Potato Bowl, Ohio (9-4) vs. Utah State (7-5), Dec. 17: Ohio lost a heartbreaker to Northern Illinois on a last-play field goal in the MAC title game. As a result, the Bobcats get shipped to Boise to play on the blue turf. Utah State has a potent offense, and this could be a high-scoring affair. (A side note: Before the game, as part of the 75th anniversary celebration of the Idaho Potato Commission, a giant fake russet potato will be unveiled. How big is “giant”? The promotional materials say the potato is too large for a standard flatbed trailer. And, yes, we’re serious.)
