Please send me what you have; I have put the MBA ones up there tonight. Thanks.

 

Question to anyone: Should the Clinic Bowls at the beginning of the season ('05 - Byrnes/MBA, '06 - Lipscomb/Goodpasture, '07 - Franklin/Hillsboro) count? Yes, they are Clinic Bowls, but there's something about their occurring at the beginning of the season that makes me unsure as to whether or not they should be included.

 

 

No. They are glorified regular-season games, not a post-season game played as a reward for a good season. Several of the jamborees played in this era are known as bowls, e.g. the "Tobacco Bowl" played annually at Hartsville. These shouldn't be regarded as bowls either.

On the Clinic Bowl, I have included only Clinic Bowls up until 1971. In 1972, the Clinic Bowl became essentially a playoff game for AAA Middle Tennessee teams, so it was more of a playoff game than a bowl game. And, of course, the Clinic Bowl ultimately became the title game for the various classes before the Blue Cross Bowl.

 

As for the Hartsville Tobacco Bowl, while I haven't researched all the games, it appears most, if not all, of these games occurred at the end of the season, and they involved teams with winning records. I certainly don't claim to know the history, but they appear to have the attributes (i.e., end of season, teams with winning records, etc.) of a bowl game.

The historical bowl list is growing; 32 more games listed in the past three days, up to 312 total. You old timers will particularly like to relive yesteryear with some of the old results. Thanks to the good doctor in Brownsville for his help.

I know Stewart Co. played in some bowl game back in the 70s and one for sure was the Barrel Bowl but its too far back in my time. Does anybody know about it. It was in the days of Billy Cherry
