Bowl games

[admin]

Watching Miami of Ohio v Mississippi State... does NOT need more cowbell. Is that a Mississippi State thing? if so, I hope they never win another football game.

Win a bowl game and still end up with a losing record! Haha

[El_Chapo]

sorry.

Win a bowl game and still end up with a losing record! Haha
Today's 3 bowel games (pun intended) started with 1 losing record and 5 at .500. The day concludes with 4 teams with losing records and 2 with winning records... What a joke the bowl system is!

It's on par with following the Vikings. Its a train wreck, but you can't help but pay attention.

Actually some have been hilariously entertaining. Like miamis coach who decided to sit on the field goal range line, which was at the 19 yard line lulz, instead of getting closer because he was getting 8 yards a carry, just to have his shitty kickers kick get blocked and lose

I actually watched the last minute of that game and you are right on that one. :facepalm:

Browns did that earlier this year after Parkey had already missed two FGs. Obviously, lost in OT.

How often do upsets happen in bowl games? Seems more often than not imo.

A lot of variables (month off, no school, travel, etc.) that I'm guessing increase the variance of the results

[No_Skill]

So far it looks like Washington can hang with Bama. Whole game? Who knows.

I wonder how many good teams get upset because they lost at the end of the regular season and have to "settle" for the lame-O bowl instead of going to a New Years bowl like they expected to do and don't really care as much.

The huskies are legit but they turn the ball over way too dam much. That and browning is hella overrated dude can ball against lesser opponents but as soon as it's a big game he folds like a cheap lawn chair

...they turn it over less than once a game...they are #2 in the country in turnover margin.

That is assuming the website i was looking at was good.

Sorry ment turned. This team is so fickle. Crush easy teams but look ordinary against good teams. A thing to keep an eye on is the huskies punter. Has a knack to shank some kicks

[No_Skill]

I expected Wash to fold after that pick six. They've been pretty stout on D. They really need a productive drive here.

D is solid. But bama will break one here eventually and it'll be all down hill from there

Probably a year or two away. Coach is making UW a cool place to go again.

[56BISON73]

Washington is a damn fine team and belonged in the game. Alabama is just better. Its as simple as that.

[oldmantutters]

Alabama is/was simply a better team than Washington. My brother and I were watching and before the game I told him Washington can win, they just can't make any mistakes and win.

Yep. Alabama makes many teams look bad

[No_Skill]

I was hoping the late game would be closer. Kind of a snoozer.

[BisonTeacher]

OSU is reminding me of vikes right now. 2 missed fgs, lots of 3 and outs and can't get anything going on offense.

[BisonTeacher]

Jeez OSU looks so bad

[BisonTeacher]

If you woulda told me the bama wash game would have been closer than OSU Clemson Ida told you that you were crazy.

[natstar1]

was clemson favored?

[BisonTeacher]

was clemson favored?

They're ranked higher than OSU so I would guess so.

[natstar1]

Looks like OSU was a small favorite, 2.5 pts, earlier today.

Didnt know they were favored. I don't know a lot about OSU fans. Would they be dumb enough to call for Urban's head?

All of the above.

national title 2(?) years ago, never lost to Michigan...I don't think so.

Urban is a bitch and a sore af loser. I hope he makes up another fake illness so he can quit again.

The referees and offensive coaches are taking the fall.

[bruinbison]

Iowa dealing with southern speed against Florida. Hawkeyes with an INT
on Florida on the 1st possession in the Outback Bowl.

[bruinbison]

Still scoreless for Iowa, just got their 2nd INT on a tipped pass

[BisonTeacher]

Kiffin wont be on the sidelines for the NC. They are saying its mutual, but it sounds like sour grapes to me. They shoulda just left him on the tarmac like USC did.

[No_Skill]

It seems like Wisconsin is averaging like 15 yards per play against Western Michigan.

WMU is baller. Row the boat PJ! 16 play 8 minute drive bitches.

[El_Chapo]

NDSU could be WMU right now. in cotton bowl (at jerry world) trending on twitter. but nope. you guys love frisco too much instead.

[ByeSonBusiness]

PJ Fleck is the man. I can't get over how much he rules. I hope he coaches at ND before it's all said and done.

[No_Skill]

Wisconsin starting to row the boat.

[BisonTeacher]

Iowa needs to change the sheets. Wmu looking better than I thought they would

[ByeSonBusiness]

WMU has had two 8 minute TD drives lol. Ballers. Kicker misses PAT. Who cares! Row the boat!

[ndsubison1]

That missed extra point may be huge

[ByeSonBusiness]

Wisconsin is going to win. sad!

Well A $600 gift bag is not such a bad thing. Some of those giftbags look closer to $1000, not sure how they get them by the NCAA

A good thing with a 13-0 record they got their shot at a national championship over three other teams that had a loss. And ranked 15th to boot. Yep, that's respect.

[unbison]

Yep, that's respect. they were ranked appropriately and played in a awesome bowl game would have been a awesome experience fighting over this shit gets old

[GRAFTONBISON]

Is there a sheet of ice under this rose bowl turf? Players have been slipping since the opening kickoff

[Bison"FANatic"]

Some g5 AD's say they don't want a g5 playoff because they play at the highest level for the championship. If 13-0 only gets you to 15 their statement is not only false but shows they are dreaming and not accepting reality. That is what our reality would be some want that and some want a different reality.

I think it's colder than normal there right now. Would that have anything to do with it.

13-0 with their non-con schedule isn't going to get you in. They played Illinois, Northwestern, and Georgia Southern. That's not good enough.

[BisonTeacher]

Why is this game so far behind?

[Vet70]

Non-conference schedule aside playing in the MAC would not be good enough to get them in the playoffs.

[56BISON73]

I havent seen Penn State play this physical in a long time. Some serious popping going on.

[ByeSonBusiness]

Lets say they go do the same thing Houston did and schedule big-time non-conf schedule. Say they go beat Penn St, Florida St, and Oklahoma(three top fifteen type teams), they'd have a pretty awesome shot. At that point, I think the committee would have to throw them a bone for beating the B1G Champ, the Big 12 Champ, and a top 3 ACC team.

They'd have to get really f'ing lucky and hit on one or two of those two teams becoming a conference champ....and not lose a single game.

Nice to see a blueblood back in the big time. Gives me hope!

[BisonTeacher]

Is this Penn St or a Minnesota team out there?

[56BISON73]

WTF were they thinking? Youve got all of your time outs and 1.20 on the clock and you go for the home run ball? JFC :facepalm:

[BisonTeacher]

Well there's that...But how about Penn state's play calling on the drive before USC tieing TD...AND the Vikings prevent that allowed USC to tie the game. Wow.

And seriously...Why was that game so long? Did the cotton bowl run long and I just didn't realize it?

And there is the rub WMU had absolutely no chance at the playoff before they even took a snap.

Good grief. Media still talking about what a great game it was. I'm thinking what a terrible game. No defense and tons of stupid mistakes not to mention the length. How about the USC DB peacocking after getting burned after the receiver missed what should have been a touchdown.

But oh, it was close so it was good.
