      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.

      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)

    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

    LA Bowl: the only Boise player that has attempted a pass going into this game is the punter?! That’s a crazy factoid

        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.

    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)

    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)

    Frisco Bowl:

    Oof no Frank Harris? Man, I swear if UTSA loses this after I sat through a 2OT Michigan basketball loss to miss the first quarter of this, I will be quite irate I didn’t just go to bed

      Finally some signs of life in the 2nd quarter. But really, UTSA had only 20 yards of offense in the 1st quarter? That is some B1G West shit

    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
