It’s going to be a Rust Belt showdown in Detroit on Boxing Day as the Pittsburgh Panthers and Toledo Rockets square off in the GameAbove Sports Bowl at 2 p.m. from Ford Field.

Hard to believe anyone knew the name of the game — GameAbov Sports Bowl — that saw Toledo outlast Pitt, 48-46, in six overtimes. Just think if Pitt had not blocked a Rockets TD early and returned it for two points, the 34 points scored in the extra sessions might have been avoided.
