A Girl’s Guide to the Bowls: Fiesta Recap

Posted by Stiletto Jen 79 views

There really wasn’t a lot going on in (my) sporting world last night. The big story was the Fiesta Bowl and I’m going to admit right now, I didn’t watch it. I mean hello, it was the season premiere of The Bachelor, day two of Superstars of Dance plus Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill returned! It was a big night in my world and my DVR was quite busy! However, I was texted with two minutes left in the game and told to tune in because interesting things were happening.

Here’s last night’s recap:

One Tree Hill: Peyton is pregnant! Nate got the point guard position with Charleston. And they got Q’s killer

The Bachelor: OH MY GOD! So in love with Jason, the single dad star of this season. He is like, the perfect dream guy.

yum! The new McDreamy...

Oh…wait…you wanted:

The Fiesta Bowl Recap

You can read this 6 line game summary in 1 minute or head to ESPN.com to find the really long, drawn out non girl-friendly version that took me 15 minutes to decipher. The last 5 minutes of the game were all you really needed to know.

With about 8:00 remaining in the game, the Texas Longhorns were leading 17-9
Then the Ohio State Buckeyes went buck-crazy (always wanted to try to say that in conversation…)
First, Terrelle Pryor ran in a 5-yard touchdown to bring the score to 17-15
Then, right before the 2 minute warning, Dan Herron scored to give the Buckeyes a 21-17 lead.
But…the play of the game came from the Longhorns:

With 0:16 left to play, Cort McCoy passed to Quan Cosby who ran 26-yards and dove into the game winning touchdown.

Final: Texas 23 Ohio State 21

up next: My Pick for the BCS on Jan 8th.

**One Tree Hill involved basketball and they talked about Seattle Seahawks on the Bachelor, therefore those are sports recaps also, ha!
