The college football bowl season rolls on, as No. 15 Oregon (9-3) meets No. 12 TCU (10-2) in the 2016 Valero Alamo Bowl.
The Horned Frogs enter Saturday amid controversy. QB Trevone Boykin -- once a considered a Heisman Trophy candidate -- was formally charged with assaulting a public servant on Thursday, a third-degree felony, per ESPN. He was released from custody late Thursday night after a $5,000 bond was posted and suspended by head coach Gary Patterson.
Trevone Boykin Can Kiss His NFL Career Goodbye
For Oregon, Saturday's game is more of a litmus test. The program -- after a shaky 3-3 start -- rattled off six consecutive victories in the Pac-12, breeding optimism in Eugene, Oregon.
