The 2007 Victory Bowl was a college football bowl game. It was a part of the 2007 football season and was played at Reeves Field in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania. The game placed the Malone Pioneers[1] against the Geneva College Golden Tornadoes.[2]

Malone won the game by a score of 45 to 17.[3] A strong showing in the second quarter of 31 points by the Pioneers helped to secure the win[4] and was assisted by four turnovers.[5] The game was the second bowl appearance for both the Pioneers and Malone coach Mike Gardner, as well as the first bowl game victory for both.[6]

Malone produced 521 yards of total offense while holding Geneva to 293. Malone managed six touchdowns in the game (three rushing and three passing) and scored a total of 31 points in the second quarter alone. Malone's defense brought in two interceptions and recovered three fumbles.[7]
