Bowl wins
A Trlica 52 yard field goal tied the 2006 Insight Bowl sending it into overtime and resulting in an eventual record-setting victory for the Red Raiders. The following season, it was Trlica's 41-yard field goal that capped-off a come-from-behind win in the 2008 Gator Bowl.
gollark: Aaa. How do I put images in my signature? I did it before but it won't work again.
gollark: Please remind everyone when it's nearing AP times?
gollark: My luck is terrible anyway. I've seen basically no rares (except those thunders, which I do not actually want) for ages.
gollark: Not that I have any chance of actually getting it, anyway...
gollark: *ponders being somewhat evil and keeping it if he finds it*
