Poinsettia Bowl is a Go

Workers pumped water out of Qualcomm Stadium overnight, readying the field, which was covered with water this time yesterday, for today’s Poinsettia Bowl between Navy and San Diego State. The field will be wet and soggy, or course, but who cares? Not Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo, who said “Football is football. We’ll go out and play and do what we do.” Kickoff is scheduled for 5:06 Pacific.
