The Frisco Bowl features a showdown between the Marshall Thundering Herd (who are touchdown underdogs) and the UTSA Roadrunners on December 19, 2023 at 9:00 PM ET on ESPN. The point total is 47 for the outing.

The Roadrunners lost against the Tulane Green Wave in their most recent game, 29-16. In their last contest, the Thundering Herd won versus the Arkansas State Red Wolves, 35-21.

There's no denying it, Trevor Lawrence has got to do better | What's Wright?

The Jacksonville Jaguars are now on their 3rd-straight loss, and while they were going into the Week 15 game against the Baltimore Ravens as underdogs, the game was definitely a winnable one. So what was the problem? Unfortunately the 'Prince that was Promised' was not so promising. Trevor Lawrence fumbled the ball in two key plays, and failed to rally the offense in times when they could have pulled ahead. Nick Wright takes a look at what's ahead for the Jaguars, and says Lawrence will have to perform at a higher level if they want to make a playoff run.
