Grantland Rice Bowl

The Grantland Rice Bowl was an annual college football bowl game in NCAA's College Division, for smaller universities and colleges. The game was named for Grantland Rice, an early 20th-century American sportswriter known for his elegant prose. In the 1968 game, Tommy Spinks of Louisiana Tech set two records when he caught 12 passes for 167 yards; the passes were thrown by junior quarterback Terry Bradshaw, the first selection of the 1970 NFL Draft.
