Whether you have a rooting interest or not, tonight's Tostitos Fiesta Bowl with Kansas State and Oregon should be a good one. When the game goes final, we will have the score.

Just month and a half a go, many thought the two schools would be playing for a BCS title. But, they both surprisingly lost their undefeated seasons and title hopes within a few hours of each other on the same night.

The Fiesta Bowl begins at 7:30 p.m. and will be aired on ESPN.

Cedar Rapids Kennedy grad Christian French is a defensive back for the Oregon Ducks. French was drafted as a tight end but has converted to defense since arriving at Oregon. Jesse Ertz, a Mediapolis senior quarterback, has committed to Kansas State.

Several Cedar Falls alums have already had their games, including Wes Boyer, who is on the Cyclone's roster. Iowa State fell short against Tulsa, 31-17 in the Liberty Bowl, while University of Iowa fell short of a postseason bowl game for the first time since 2000.
