Bowl Season brings with it many unique traditions. That is especially true in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl.
This time around, it was Wyoming running over Kent State for the 52-38 win. The win by the Cowboys featured over 400 yards rushing and 6 touchdowns on the ground.
Wyoming was powered in that game by QB Levi Williams. Williams posted an incredible stat line of 127 yards passing, 200 yards rushing, and 5 total touchdowns. According to ESPN, Williams is the first QB with 200 yards rushing and 4 rushing touchdowns in a bowl game.

The Tropical Smoothie Cafe Frisco Bowl is also set for Tuesday evening on ESPN. Should the bowl-game-themed victory baths continue, that one will be a bit messier than a few French fries. Stay tuned.
