0:00.0	Oh, welcome to the 40-40 preview of the 2025 Frisco Bowl.
0:16.8	Let's start first by talking about what this game is not, the 2021 Frisco Classic, which replaced the San Francisco Bowl to keep a bowl eligible team from missing out is the definition of a participation trophy game.
0:28.6	What this is, weirdly, is the Miami Beach Bowl, which was played for three seasons, including the infamous Memphis BYU brawl game in the inaugural contest in 2014, before being
