One of the better “showcase games” of the 2011-2012 Bowl Season is the 2011 Valero Alamo Bowl, with the Washington Huskies set to take on the Baylor Bears’ Heisman-winning quarterback. Jeremy Bennett–better known around the web as JBHuskers–takes control of the team from Waco, Texas, in today’s guest entry for the BOWL BLITZ INVITATIONAL here at STAT BOX STORIES.
A bowl game has a little extra panache when it includes any star on any team. That level of importance and excitement is increased tenfold when the bowl game includes a Heisman Trophy winner. Baylor’s QB #10 was able to set 46 school records this year in leading Baylor football into the national spotlight in 2011. He was thrust into the spotlight by winning five straight games to end the season including wins over then #5 Oklahoma and then #22 Texas. Though he has one year of eligibility left, it is almost a foregone conclusion that QB #10 will head to the NFL for the 2012 NFL Draft. This 9-3 Baylor squad has the luxury of playing a virtual home game as they compete in the Alamo Bowl in San Antonio, Texas.
