KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The University of Missouri football team rallied this fall to become bowl eligible.

Finishing 8-4, the team fought their way into the AutoZone Liberty Bowl Dec. 31 against former Big 12 foe Oklahoma State.

For the players, not only do they get national exposure (the game will be broadcast on ESPN) and a trip to Memphis, they’re also set to receive a pretty nice mix of swag.

The Sports Business Daily reports the players will receive a shopping trip to the Bass Pro Shops in Memphis, a Bose SoundLink Bluetooth speaker, a Bulova watch, Nike athletic shoes, sports sandals, a backpack, sunglasses and a football.

The value of the swag bag isn’t clear based on the generic descriptions of the products, though the Bose speaker sells online for roughly $80.

As for the University of Kansas Jayhawks and their swag haul? Well, maybe next year.
