COSTA MESA - The Orange Coast College football team will take on Mt. San Antonio in the U.S. Bank Beach Bowl on Saturday, Nov. 18 at 4 p.m. at Santa Monica College, according to the Commission on Athletics.
The Pirates (7-3) dropped out of the state championship tournament picture with Saturday's 17-13 loss to Golden West, but with the region's No. 8 ranking, they still earned the right to take on the No. 7 Mounties (8-2).
Mt. SAC finished the regular season as American Division's co-champion with Palomar, but was denied a berth in the state championship tournament by way of a 42-7 loss to the Comets on Nov. 4. Fourteenth-ranked Palomar (6-4) earned the eighth-seed in the state championship tournament and will take on top-seeded Saddleback in the National Bowl.
OCC has lost its past four meetings with Mt. SAC, dating back to 2001. In fact, since 1992, OCC is 1-12 against the Mounties -- it's lone win coming in 2000 (26-25).
