      Just tuning in now, good Lord this weather is atrocious.

      Thanks for creating this post, btw. I tried to make a gameday thread before I went out this morning but it didn’t go through in the browser. Wonder if the new Lemmy update is causing that glitch

      Edit: woops, wrong account. It’s so easy to get mixed up on mobile. Aaand it won’t let me switch so I guess I’ll be posting from here

      Yeah unfortunately the orange team can’t seem to overcome it. Fortunately the former vols coach is certainly nailing this bowl

    After all of the signing day excitement, it’s back to reality with the Miami Hurricanes. Abysmal start against Rutgers.

    The Arizona Bowl is so hard to watch. The barstool guys are awful commentators. This might be worse than the NBC crew that called the Notre Dame/USC game

    Edit: after a few more excruciating minutes, I have decided this is by far the worst football “commentary” I have ever heard in my life

      And remember, this isn’t the first time they let this happen…

      Oh man, I really wanted the thicker kicker to be able to get that 65 yarder before half. How do you allow a delay of game?!

    Maryland just taking Auburn to the woodshed early in the Music City Bowl. They know it’s December, right? Crabbing season is over, they have no business being this scary this time of year

    Ah, I was just about to get excited about the early pick in the Peach Bowl but that’s a bummer it grazed the turf

      How did penn state end up wearing blue here? If they were home surely they’d pick white and if they were away they’d surely be forced to wear white?

        I dunno, but bowl games sometimes opt for weird rules. The color rush in the Cotton Bowl last night was really strange. The helmet communication in some of the games has been a cool thing though (hope that becomes the norm for next season)

    I missed the kickoff of the Independence Bowl and am bummed I missed Cal scoring. Hopefully there’s lots of points and the Red Raiders lose (I probably won’t be staying up for the end of this one)

        Lol, yes.

        I haven’t been following FCS (other than hearing the NDSU coach bailed on his team for USC during their playoff run). How are things going there?

          Well we just had a thrilling double ot finish so I’d say as good as you could hope. I just wonder how fcs in general feels no that the bowls are also a championship tournament.

    The Famous Toastery Bowl is a prime example of how sponsoring a bowl is ineffective marketing. I don’t even know what a Toastery even is, much less a famous one. And I know, 99% of marketing is just implanting a brand in your head so when you’re staring at a shelf full of different brands you’ll go with the one you recognize. But again, I don’t even know where to look on a shelf for famous toastery, though I assume bread isle? (I already have a preferred bread brand btw)

      I’m kind of disappointed I missed this one, but honestly how many people can watch a weekday bowl game at 2pm?

      So I’ll just pretend I was boycotting it as an unworthy substitute for the Bahamas Bowl
