Time for the Rose Bowl featuring Will Howard. I didn't see it, but the announcer said Will threw a 70-yard TD pass at the beginning of the game.

said Howard threw a 70-yard TD pass in the first minute of the game.

Big Will keeps on churning: rolling rolling rolling in the rose bowl

Oregon doesn't look like they belong in the playoffs.

Jebuz Will snowing no mercy.

I was very wrong about ASU. They hung with the horns in a way I didn't think they could.

Skettebo makes up for a lot of faults.

Dan Lanning is a clown

I'll bet anybody that Will goes in the first round if he enters the draft. I don't think that would have happened if he had gone last year.

Can't believe Will's only making 1.5 million and Sander's kid is making over 8 million.

ASU is the first time in forever I emotionally invested in a non-cat outcome. Will making me feel better in the night cap.

I was enjoying it as much as a KSU game that we're winning.

Hopefully ASUs showing and Oregon's lack of one let's everyone know this is the better system. Cause LOL at complaining of blowouts when this is happening to Oregon

Ducks have given up on this game punting there.

Yeah, pretty sure none of the people who took first round blowouts as confirmation that certain teams didn't belong in the playoffs will also take this as confirmation that Oregon didn't belong in the playoffs.

I'm sorry but it's so silly that these prelim rounds are still called bowls.

Ohio State wearing Rose Bowl Champion hats is super dumb.

I agree. Also the first 2 rounds should be played on campus not at the "Peach/Rose" Bowl.

Life would be a lot easier for you if you didn't let trival things like that get under your skin.

What Rusty and Ben ji are saying without saying is schools are missing out on 30 to 100 million by having a home game. That is what was estimated for the 5 through 8 ranked teams' revenue intake by sponsorship of CFP games. I don't know about you but to me that's a crap load of money.

michigancat · « **Reply #194 on:** January 01, 2025, 08:41:21 PM »

Oh I don't care where the games are played or how much money is involved, I just think calling them "Bowls" and having MVPs and Roses and trophies and stuff is silly

I don't think ESPN would appreciate losing their most popular bowl games and seeing their money streams go to the schools that sponsored home games.

ben ji · « **Reply #196 on:** January 01, 2025, 11:49:12 PM »

I just want them played at the home teams stadium because its easier on the fans to attend and CFB stadiums/traditions are what make this silly ball sport something we all love. I get that maybe "we" make more money playing them at Old bowl game sites but I don't see any of that money so IDGAF.

Oh for sure, no bias there.

I think what is truly insane is how if you look at all the other playoffs (FCS, D2, D3) is you can have massive blowouts all throughout the playoffs, even in the champ game. It simply happens. To complain about it or implying a group that belongs vs doesn't simply wants to go back to media choosing the champs, via some eye test BS.

BIG APPLE CAT · « **Reply #198 on:** January 02, 2025, 09:57:26 AM »

There were plenty of national championship games in both the bcs and 4 team cfp eras that were snoozers and/or blowouts. I don’t think there exists a post-season format this is immune to this
