2007 Poinsettia Bowl - Post-game Effects

Post-game Effects

Utah's win was the seventh-straight bowl win for the Utes, a record that tied it with Boston College for the most consecutive bowl-game wins in NCAA history. Two weeks later, Boston College won the 2007 Champs Sports Bowl, its eighth consecutive bowl game win.

The 2007 Poinsettia Bowl was the last time the bowl would feature a matchup between an at-large team and the second-place Mountain West Conference team. Prior to the game, Poinsettia Bowl officials announced that the at-large half of the matchup would be replaced by the Pacific-10 Conference's seventh-place team in 2008. In 2009, the Pac-10's sixth-place team would be granted a bid to the Poinsettia Bowl.
