Bowl Games (Non-UConn)

Cam Ross just muffed a punt return for UVA. Bounced off his head it seemed.

This North Texas v SDSU game is exciting. ESPN

Just watched a few highlights from other bowls. There is pro bowl like tackling everywhere going on.

UVA just started the 2nd half with a 19 play drive taking up 10:07 for a go-ahead TD.

A lot of third and fourth stringers out there.

I am surprised the Sec supports Nil. Now that everyone can pay players there ability to cheat is limited and they look average in bowl games. Tennessee and Vanderbilt didn’t look that great and were consider semi pro teams by Georgia and Alabama fans.


Look at Clemson. nil starts and they are a 6-6 team now.

I don’t think SEC schools were the only ones paying players. That implies the B1G wasn’t either

Maybe, but it seems like it affected the Sec more. I don’t expect a Sec team to win the title this year. I don’t expect a Sec team in the title game.

But games only count if the Sec wins. If they don’t win then the game wasn’t taken seriously or it wasn’t a good matchup for them.

Duke player gets ejected in the first half for what appeared to be for him spiting on the ground near the ref's feet. Not sure that is a rule violation but I could be wrong.

I am rooting for Duke - never thought I would type that... Just saw Duke QB run 20, and at end of run, spun ball and did a little first down pointing...

Hmm.... Skyler Bell got about 3 flags for unsportmanlike conduct for doing celebrations like this - maybe even toned down than this... Hmm... Guess you have to be in a conference to celebrate a good play LOL

From sunny, but cool, Orlando. The Citrus Bowl looks pretty full and both teams have an awful lot of fans here. Michigan is playing a freshman quarterback that seems to be getting better as the game goes on. It’s currently tied at 17 at halftime

Announced attendance is 47,317, about the same as last year

 

[BugsyCT]

"The Gasparilla Bowl saw the biggest decline, while the Texas Bowl led with 63,867 and the Pinstripe Bowl also increased."

Pinstripe had Penn St & Clemson and got 41k. Last year it was BC and Nebraska and got 30k.

Nobody watching Miami vs OU? Great game so far.

 

[HCCForever]

I’m rooting for Miami in CFP. They’re up 14-0 over tOSU. I’d like to see the SEC and B10 lose their minds along with ND supporters.

My husband and I aren’t Miami fans but we really dislike OSU. ironically this clip showed up in my Twitter feed yesterday

 

[DW1361]

Miami has been winning the battle in the pits. Very impressive so far.

 

[DW1361]

Rooting for Miami despite disliking them as well. They are however fun to watch!

 

[traitor71]

Refs trying to help Ohio State with that review.

 

[Kolumbo]

Refs trying to help Ohio State with that review.

Looked like he outright had the 1st down but overturning the 1st down call was really out of whack.

 

[Hoophound]

Keelan Marion having good game for the Canes.

 

[traitor71]

Miami should probably be up by more points, but they just aren't quite there offensively.

Are you questioning the honor of Urban Meyer's OSU and Harbaugh's Michigan?
