What’s better than watching college football in the Bahamas? Well, that’s what you’ll get with the Bahamas Bowl, which has been played at Thomas Robinson Stadium in Nassau since 2014. The two teams lucky enough to travel there this year are Old Dominion and Eastern Michigan.

Old Dominion has been around for just three seasons in the FBS, but the Monarchs have improved drastically in those three years. Head coach Bobby Wilder guided his team to 6-6 and 5-7 seasons before leading them to a 9-3 record in 2016, featuring losses to NC State, Appalachian State, and Western Kentucky. The Monarchs then had five straight victories to close out the season.

Eastern Michigan, meanwhile, has been around since the 1970s, but the Eagles had losing seasons for the last 21 years. Being bowl eligible is a positive step for third-year head coach Chris Creighton.

Three big things to know

1. Eastern Michigan hasn’t made a bowl since 1987. The Eagles did have six wins in 2011 and 1995, but they didn’t make the cut for a bowl invitation. The EMU fanbase should be excited to see the team playing in a bowl for the first time in a while.

2. Old Dominion’s David Washington leads the offense. On the season, he’s thrown for over 2,600 yards and 28 touchdowns. He also has just four interceptions.

3. These two teams get to stay at a world class resort: If a trip to the Bahamas wasn’t already awesome enough, it gets even better when you consider where these players get to stay. It’s four nights in the world famous Atlantis Resort, which also has an amazing water park.
