Who are the top NFL Draft prospects playing in the Wasabi Fenway Bowl between Cincinnati and Louisville? Here are the top offensive and defensive players that fantasy football fans should keep an eye on in this college football bowl game.
It's bowl season! If you haven't watched much college football this year, this is your last chance to see all these teams. And if you're an NFL fan, it's a chance to watch some players who could end up playing on Sunday, either next year or in the future.
Today we're looking at the Wasabi Fenway Bowl, which pits Cincinnati against Louisville.
Below you'll find the top NFL prospects playing in the Wasabi Fenway Bowl, which will be playing 12/17/2022 at 11:00 a.m. ET. And remember: in a landscape where top players sit out bowls more than ever, there's always a chance that a player mentioned doesn't play. For example, Cincinnati wide receiver Tyler Scott and multiple Louisville players have opted out of this game, including quarterback Malik Cunningham.

Ahmari Huggins-Bruce - WR- Louisville
Louisville is without wide receiver Tyler Hudson for this one, as he's already declared for the NFL Draft and will be sitting out the bowl game. But I'm excited to see Ahmari Huggins-Bruce in a larger role for this one.
In his second college season, Huggins-Bruce caught 30 passes for 363 yards and two touchdowns. He's been a good piece for the Cardinals, and now we might get a chance to see what he can do on his own.
Ivan Pace Jr. - LB - Cincinnati
Most of Cincinnati's offensive talent is out for this one, but we'll hopefully get to see Ivan Pace Jr., who had 119 tackles and eight sacks this year for Cincinnati. He proved that he was more than just a good MAC linebacker after spending his first three seasons at Miami.
He's a hard tackler who should be productive at the next level. Motor is a good word to describe Pace. He lacks a little in size, but makes up for it with effort.
Pace was a unanimous All-American, the first one ever for UC.
Brock Domann - QB - Louisville
Look, this bowl game is obviously impacted negatively by all the opt outs. I wish, for example, I could write about Malik Cunningham here, but he's sitting this one out after declaring for the draft.
I do have some interest in seeing what his backup, Brock Domann, might be able to do, though.
Domann saw action in nine games this year, going 66-for-123 for 866 yards with three touchdowns and five interceptions. He's probably not an NFL guy, but the former JUCO All-American has some talent, and with the explosion of spring football leagues, he could one day end up on some kind of pro roster.
