Half due to COVID and the rest due to injuries, transfers and opt outs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I'm sure the CFP will play no matter what scenario...and half of Alabama would still leave 50 5* players regardless so they would be fine...but I wouldn't be surprised to see it cause havoc with that too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btownqb Posted December 22, 2021 Report Share Posted December 22, 2021 ESPN said a bowl game between Missouri and Army is more important to them than two ranked CBB teams (Tennessee and Arizona) playing at the same time.

Any service team beating any bowl eligible team is noteworthy. If so only because the CFP did not have the balls to move Michigan to #1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so only because the CFP did not have the balls to move Michigan to #1 Not the SEC fault, I agree, UM should have been #1. There was no reason Bama jumped them.. while Bama did "thump" UGA, it wasn't some OSU UW beat down that got them in F4. Plus, UM drilled Iowa, absolutely nothing there to say Bama should move ahead of UM, nothing. Now.. if they just don't want a Bama/UGA rematch in the semis, I wish they'd just SAY that. Michigan played 1 bad quarter of football. Alabama absolutely should have been beaten by Auburn. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5fouls Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 Have zero interest in the college bowl games any more. Used to watch a ton of them every year. Not sure I will watch a single one until the Rose Bowl and the playoff games (not even sure which Bowl Games make-up the playoff this year). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stlboiler23 Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 We’re losing guys like crazy. Few injuries and a few academic issues. Likely without 4 of our top 6 WR’s. Woof. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to be you watched multiple bowl games because the top 3-4 teams didn't play one another for a championship. It was like an eye test for the NC and depending on how each team took care of business decided who the NC would be. Also, lets be honest...if you lived in B1G country the SEC, ACC, PAC12, BIG12 was rarely on tv....maybe a big rivalry game or just a major matchup so it was your one time a year to see them and measure them....now with games on all over all available with these network agreements there is no mystery....you've seen them all year...and you already know how bad or good they are and no reason to tune in...imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
