Of the sixteen bowl games over the next three days
- Thread starter thatsbaseball
- Start date
Outside of the playoffs, I don't care to watch any of them.
It’s the last college football we’ll have to watch for about 8 months. As screwed up as college football has become it’s still more interesting than the NFL. I’ll watch what ever is on.
Me again as a bowl defender & watcher. As many as I can starting with our boys from Toledo coming up soon.
Driving for the next 2 days and will probably be listening to a good portion of them on XM84.
I just like CFB because it's where my team plays.

I dropped 10 large on a UV printer for the store. I'll be working with it the next few days, trying to get up to speed.
This is the correct answer. Nobody cares about these inconsequential matchups now.
Playoff expansion is bringing an end to the bowls. And maybe that's a good thing to weed out the lesser bowls that have crappy attendance. Maybe they could do away with the on campus matchups and declare the lower tier bowls as hosting sites, but it'd take some negotiating on multiple levels for that to happen.
Once the bowl season is over we will see what the tv ratings are. If they don’t change much then they’ll continue because that’s really all espn cares about.
I doubt they change much. Even if they are down some they’ll still be better than anything else ESPN can put on.
The Hawaii bowl on Christmas Eve was one of the best games all year and superseded any of the first playoff games so I respect your opinion on choosing not to watch but your also dumbasses because it's some still football still being played that you're missing out on
As long as the money ESPN gives them helps them turn a reasonable profit, I agree. As long as bowl execs make money, and have teams that can fill the slots, they will continue to exist. That's the kicker.
I'm curious how much attendance plays into it. Basically, if TV and sponsorship gives a profit, who cares if it's an empty stadium.
I used to watch every single bowl game as I soaked up every last drop of college football but now with the playoffs, opt outs, etc. I don't watch near as much. Now that said, I'm still taking in a good 7 or 8 of these games just because I love football
Watching Toledo/Pittsburgh now. Toledo looks pretty good. Maybe that wasn't such a bad loss after all - except --- Pittsburgh blocked the extra point and ran it back for a safety. 6-2.
It was our worst loss since the loss to South Alabama. Horrific and embarrassing loss.
Back to the original poster - I don't care much about either team, but the Liberty Bowl looks intriguing - Arkansas v Texas Tech.
The amount of sh-its, damns, and fvcks I have to give about college football currently are EXTREMELY limited, and absolutely NONE of them are earmarked for San Jose St or S. FL no matter how good the game was. I'm having trouble scraping up enough to watch us, oh wait, never mind................
Sitting here watching Toledo and Pitt and odds for the other bowls are scrawling across the bottom of the screen. There is a Snoop Dawg Bowl! Is America great or what. If State ever makes The Snoop Dawg Bowl I’m so going. Dont know where it’s at but I’m going.
I said after the game. They were just better than us, bigger and faster. Sure it's embarrassing for a sec team but that's how bad our talent was this year.
Probably will have a tv tuned into each of them but won't be watching any with rapt intensive attention.
I'm going to the game. Free tickets for veterans and I'm going with my Navy vet buddy.
I think Navy will win. Preparing for an option offense is tough and I'm thinking the best Oklahoma players are sitting this out due to draft and/or portal.
My kid is in the NC State Marching Band, and I'm going to the Military Bowl in Annapolis on Saturday, so I won't see many games this weekend.
Pulling for Toledo. Their corch Jason Candle will be going to a better job. After all, Pitt has a national championship in football and Sherrill corched there. And they beat the hell out of us. Go Rockets. This win in some way makes our loss to them look not so bad.
Well now we are in their record books. The first season they've ever had 2 power 4 wins
How many overtimes? I had to record the 4th quarter and my DVR ran out after an hour. 6 or 7 OTs?
Toledo's a pretty good team.
I think it was 6 7 or 8. They won, then review it was tied, then they won. I don't like this format, but I'm not the target anymore.
There are a handful of games that I'll watch if I'm on the couch at the same time... but none that I will go out of my way to watch.
And honestly I'm not even going to try that hard to watch the playoffs, but yeah sure, if it's on and I'm home, why not I guess.
