Twitter roundup: Independence Bowl Laff Riot

The story of one postseason college football contest, as told through social media.

Now that ULM has gone bowling, every team in the country minus the 4 that joined in 2012 has reached an FBS bowl game.

#MACtion on a midday afternoon, what a sweet, sweet sound.

Not sure how it looks on TV, but #ShreveKota has warmed up, and while it’s overcast, there’s no rain. All pluses for ULM.

I love that this bowl game is sponsored by a pyramid scheme.

@nastinchka The #IndyBowl just isn’t as fun when there’s not a subplot of whether or not a bird of prey has escaped into greater Shreveport.

Attended ULM practice this year and was devastated to learn Todd Berry’s pass plays aren’t all named after drive-thru daiquiri flavors.

@nastinchka @dylankidd The French. Nobody’s had the heart to tell them.

By virtue of architecture, we can hear the Ohio coaches box below. It’s not as cool as you’d think, and the profanity is rarely creative.

Ohio, our nation’s newest Air Raid team.

Oh come on, ULM.

Tyler Tettleton starts his day a meager 5-of-5 for 165 and a TD.

Oh, ULM, you were fun once.

The Todd Barry of my dreams goes for it on 4th-and-inches at any point in the game, from anywhere.

This afternoon has thus far confirmed what I already suspected: I am irrationally attached to this ULM team.

Hey everyone in college football: Kolton Browning will roll right and run like hell in the red zone. We all know this now. No excuses.

The Ohio offense and the rain have both started strong in the third quarter. There might be 500 folks here by the fourth.

MURDERHAWKS RT @inthebleachers: 4th quarter!!!! Time for UL-M to turn it on, right?!

— Jason Kirk (@JasonKirkSBN) December 28, 2012

Is Ohio the nation’s leader in alliterative offense, between Tyler Tettleton and Beau Blankenship?

— Holly Anderson (@SIHolly) December 28, 2012

Thanks to UL-Monroe’s loss to Ohio, my prediction of Auburn beating a bowl winner is incorrect. NOW we can say the season was not very good.
