      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

    After all of the signing day excitement, it’s back to reality with the Miami Hurricanes. Abysmal start against Rutgers.

      Yeah unfortunately the orange team can’t seem to overcome it. Fortunately the former vols coach is certainly nailing this bowl

    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

    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

      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)

    I don’t know how I feel about the Pop Tarts mascot. It’s silly and fun, but they’re going to eat it at the end? Reminds me of King Cheez-It last year or when Duke’s announced the mayo bath a few years back. I guess we’ll see if it’s endearing or creepy when it happens

      Ah, bummer for K-State to get the punt return TD called off for a block in the back.

      I feel like that happens way too often. If you’re on return coverage, don’t get too eager with blocking since the penalty can almost reverse momentum

    Even though they’re down, Brock Glenn is looking decent in the Orange Bowl (or maybe Georigia’s DBs just aren’t as good as the rest of their defense)

    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)
