Former Florida State head coach Bobby Bowden will face off against fellow National Championship winning coach Gene Stallings as they prepare their teams for the Connect to Home Bowl. The event will take place at an undisclosed military base in the Persian Gulf and will combine troops and football greats like Jim Kelly, LaVar Arrington, Thurman Thomas and Jevon Kearse. The highlights from the game will be shown during halftime of ESPN’s broadcast of the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl on ESPN Jan. 1 and www.facebook.com/Tostitos.

Other players set to take the field with the troops are Rodney Peete, Zach Thomas, Andre Reed, Antonio Freeman and Ron Dayne.
