Re: 2018 FBS Scores/Updates
I hate Texas. I don't mind Georgia. Still finding myself cheering against the SEC. Didn't see this coming from Texas, but maybe Bevo did.
Re: 2018 FBS Scores/Updates
Texas 17-0 beginning of the 2nd. WTF? Maybe Georgia didn't belong in the CFP.
Re: 2018 FBS Scores/Updates
The Rose Bowl was the only halftime show I saw this year.
They used to show them at all the major bowls. Or at least a good portion of them. I miss that.

We already knew they didn't belong. They got #rekt by LSU and blew a big lead against Alabama. Wins and losses matter.
Re: 2018 FBS Scores/Updates
Honestly...bowl games that don't have championship implications are consolation games. If you've ever played sports you know how hard it is to get up for a consolation game. Before the playoff, the new year's bowls still had implications depending on votes. But now that it only matters for 4 teams we aren't getting their best football. If they expand the field, that may change.

I wrestled in about a million consolation matches. It wasn't hard to get up for a big one or against a good opponent.
The "(insert team here) was not motivated" is SEC propaganda.

I disagree. I'm also gonna throw out that individual sports mentality is a completely different thing than team sport mentality.

Georgia specifically said they wanted to make a statement today and show the country how good they are. If you cant get excited to play the #15 team in the country, you have a problem.
You might have some of a point regarding the team vs. Individual sport mentality.

And...they didn't. Saying and doing are 2 different things. I think you just made my point?
