College football bowl thread: Days of Signs and Roses

Starting to feel a little like the Ole Miss game where the Tide should have been knocked out by halftime but wasn’t.

 

Herbstreit takes his dog to the games?
What on earth?

 

Awesome beast. I love following his travels.

 

They just mentioned that the team that makes the best half-time adjustments will win. Considering Michigan won’t have any film or laptops to illegally access from the first half (I think), my money is on Bama to run train on Dockers boy.

Like, I despise Alabama and all they represent but it’s amazing how one season of Harbaugh, cheating, Portnoy, and all Wolverines bullshit, I can root for Saban and company and whoever plays Michigan. Fuck these guys and their fanbase.

 

I have no doubt the Rose will pull a good number for viewership - but with the decline of CFP ratings over the year - I'm surprised Disney doesn't put it on ABC or do a free stream. I have the Disney bundle, and it isn't even on that. With the cord-cutting, a big event that people might want to tune in - and promote your streaming options. These games wouldn't outdraw the top two NFL games on any particular week.

 

... and lost at home to Texas. Yet a major-conference champion went unbeaten, won its conference championship game and was left out of the CFP.

The longer the halftime, the better the chances of the team coached by the best to do it.

 

It has no competition because there are no other games in any sport going on. It’s going up against local news on the east coast and reruns of Judge Judy on a day when most of the country is off from work.

 

Until that shot of Sark getting off the bus, I hadn’t thought about the fact Washington is playing its biggest game in more than a generation against an ex-coach.

 

I Kew colleges still had bands!

 

I’m hoping Seth McLaughin studies well and has prospects for an internship.
