The day started with an incident between Mississippi State and Tulsa at the Armed Forces Bowl.

Seems like a good enough reason not to have teams that are 3-7 playing in the postseason as Mississippi State was prior to kickoff and its 28-26 victory.
The Bulldogs also were flagged for a taunting penalty after one of its players stood over Tulsa’s Carlos Santana, who was injured on an onside kick attempt.
