College football bowl thread: Days of Signs and Roses

Just so you don't miss it. Sunset in Pasadena tomorrow 4:54 PST.

 

Partly cloudy in the morning, clearing in the afternoon.

 

Might as well get a good look at it now. Probably won't see much of it tomorrow.

 

The most legendary punting duel in Vols history is Beatty Feathers combining with Alabama’s John Cain for 40 punts in 1932. Are you saying that record is in play?

 

That one? Maybe.

This one . . .?

Achievement unlocked: Both teams throw a screen pass for no gain on 3rd and 2. Such bold risk takers.

 

More of a 405 guy myself but always enjoy a nice ride up and down the 605.

 

I blocked SI posts from showing up in my feed for that very reason.

The last straw was some whack apparently out of Penn State writing about the Orioles - by simply quoting a Kubatko story. At least the quotes were accurate, but I do not want some fanboi on “SI” dissecting a MASN story. I’ll just go to MASN directly.

 

I’ve been watching college football long enough to know if I see the name “Nussmeier” either coaching or playing QB to take the other team.

 

The Cheez-It on the bowl patch blends in seamlessly with Tennessee’s uniforms.

 

I can't tell you how mind blowing it is for me to watch Liberty in a freaking Fiesta Bowl, less than 20 years removed from a 1-10 FCS season in which they were shut out in three straight games and needed a fourth-quarter comeback to beat a DII team for the only win. I understand why people hate the school, not a fan myself, but it's still wild to me.
