Bowl Game Win

First things first. The Buffaloes need to cap the 2016 season off strong by defeating Oklahoma State in the Alamo Bowl.

Yes, Buffs fans, I get it. It’s not the College Football Playoff and it’s not the Rose Bowl. Those are the destinations we all hoped this season would end in, but if we’re honest, we didn’t imagine a bowl game of any sort when this season kicked off.

By defeating the Cowboys in San Antonio makes this season a resounding success. The Buffs haven’t won a bowl game since they defeated UTEP in the 2004 Houston Bowl. That’s tough on fans of a program that saw it’s school go to a bowl game in all but two years from 1990-2000.

Let’s take care of this victory first before we start looking too far into the future.
