[kella]

lol @ cure bowl

 

[Southpaw]

It will cure insomnia.

 

[Travis7401]

Arizona Bowl: Colorado State (7-5) vs. Nevada (6-6)
Tucson, Arizona | Arizona Stadium
7:30 p.m., campusinsiders.com

A bowl game featuring teams from the same conference and "Televised" on Campusinsiders.com

LMAO I really hope CSU boycotts this bowl. Bowl games have always been fuckshit, but this year is definitely the worst. Between this bowl and the CURE bowl, I'm not sure which is more fuckshit.

 

[Southpaw]

It's not even on TV? No fucking way

 

[bruin]

I can't get over that. Bowl game from two teams in the same conference. lmao

Kinda like that Cal-CU reg. season game a few years back where Colorado had joined the Pac-10 but it was listed as a non-conference game.

Now teams are 5-7 making bowl games. To me, that defeats the purpose of the regular season, to me.

 

[silverwheels]

yeah, way too many bowl games

 

[Travis7401]

I take a strange type of pride that my team is going to be featured in the most absurd bowl racket in history. Untelevised bowl game between conference opponents. Too absurd to even make up.

Both universities going to lose a ton of money (but the AD and corches get bonuses so they'll never complain) and they won't even get the benefit of "National Television exposure" that all the bowl apologists claim is so important. This bowl is a straight up cash grab, lol.

 

[Southpaw]

The team gets those extra weeks of practice, though, so there's that. I wonder what kind of swag bag you get from that bowl? A loaf of white bread and a pack of bologna?

 

[DeadMan]

Can we also talk about how there's a bowl in Miami on a Monday afternoon? What the fuck?

 

[Travis7401]

If I was CSU I would just decline the bowl and take the extra weeks of practice anyway and see if the NCAA has the balls to tango...

 

[silverwheels]

wouldn't mind playing in dat popeyes bahamas bowl, doe

 

[DeadMan]

If I was CSU I would just decline the bowl and take the extra weeks of practice anyway and see if the NCAA has the balls to tango...

CSU is not the team to stand up to the NCAA. No where near a big enough name.

 

[Travis7401]

When was the last untelevised bowl game? I would have to imagine it has been decades, since trog bowl games only became really popular due to the television in the first place.

 

[Travis7401]

CSU is not the team to stand up to the NCAA. No where near a big enough name.

Oh they won't do it because the corch and AD want that bowl game bonus, but I don't think the NCAA would deny a 7-5 team extra practice weeks for declining an untelevised bowl against a conference opponent. That's pretty unprecedented territory and the school would absolutely have financial reasons for declining the invite.

That's pretty unprecedented territory and the school would absolutely have financial reasons for declining the invite.

I don't know, I'd bet the NCAA would suit up for a battle with a mid-major program that did something like that. You know they have a fetish for enforcing their ham-handed rules in situations like that.

But really, this is going to be a financial bloodbath for both CSU and Nevada. Over/under on people in the stadium has got to be around 5,000.

 

[Travis7401]

This is my exact argument for why CSU (and several other MWC type school) would have been far better off just dropping down to FCS and forming their own conference. MWC is always gonna get fucked, you can't compete with the trogs.

 

[goblue96]

1994 Freedom Bowl

You can blame all of these trog bowls on ESPN. They slowly bought all the rights to bowl games during the 90's and then created all of the fuckshit in late 90's/early 00's.

We gone from 18 bowl games in 1995 to 40 bowl games in 2015.

 

[Travis7401]

At least ESPN televises them.

Source on the Freedom bowl? Cjones says it was on Raycom? So maybe it was televised but just not nationally televised?

[Wuf]

5-7 San Jose State? They should be smelling smoke

 

[Rutgers Mike]

Will i watch al of these games? No.

Will i watch a lot of them? Yes.

 

[Lightningwar]

Gotta love how the bowls are making a bowl irrelevant. The B1G is claiming 2 bowl teams with 5-7 records. I applaud Missouri for having the dignity to turn down a bowl this year if offered with the same record.

 

[bruin]

oh but we be watching.

 

[CJ_24]

Bowl games are meaningless anyway. They're cash grabs and excuses for alumni to take a vacation.

 

[Wuf]

Dak gon' dick down the Pack

 

[MSUFanatic]

It's money for the University seems pretty dumb to turn it down for 'dignity sake'. Especially for athletic programs whom most are out of cash sans a few.

If they keep making bowl games there's no reason not to go if they select you. It gives you more practices and exposure regardless of the game.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Yeah, it's also another 20 free practices or whatever, and some free shit for the players.

 

[adchester]

Excited to not watch while Minnesota loses to Central Michigan

 

[MSUFanatic]

Iconic gift

 

[osick87]

CSU and Nevada get custom cowboy boots. Good luck selling those for lunch money.

 

[Southpaw]

Welp, I bet this makes @Travis7401 change his mind about that bowl now.

 

[Southpaw]

Texas Tech and LSU get the worst swag of all. Alpaca throw, belt buckle, selfie stick lol.

 

[Travis7401]

That's amazing. I'd rather have the alpaca throw than custom cowboy boots. They'd probably refuse to give me mismatched boots and I'd only get one size

 

[osick87]

Alpaca throw for all those chilly nights in Lubbock and Baton rouge

 

[Travis7401]

It can get cold in Lubbock!

 

[osick87]

Actually I bet it's somewhat thin since it's made in Texas.

Also gift suites are no joke. Probably good stuff in those.

 

[Rutgers Mike]

As far as those gifts go, they don't always list everything. The year Rutgers played Notre Dame in the Pinstripe Bowl, they were giving out PS4s

 

[Wooly]

It can get cold in Lubbock!

Is that how you explained that indiscretion in Lubbock to your wife?

 

[Hachiko]

Unofficial first bowl game of the season...

Spoiler: unofficial first bowl game

Dear Bob Corrigan,

There is a mysterious package outside your door. Looks kinda heavy like a Chevy. Or a D. Give em the.
Please examine while you still have time. Make your time. It is borrowed.

Signed,

The Hachiko.

P.S. Go Falcons.

[Dr. Shats Basoon]

I, for one, can't wait for UCLA to shithouse Nebraska. 5-8 baybeeeee

 

[bruin228]

It's a game we should win, which means it'll consist of Bradley putting all 11 players in the end zone on defense every drive and Mazzone calling 60 swing passes resulting in a loss.

 

[Dr. Shats Basoon]

ha, I'd be surprised if Nebraska didn't put up some yards and points but UCLA should win going away. When they played in 2013 the talent disparity was obvious. The game will probably be close going into the 3rd or 4th then some timely turnovers to turn the game towards UCLA.
I'm interested to see how the defense holds up against Rosen. The passing defense was atrocious at the start of the year but I thought they improved significantly as the year went on. It'll be a nice little test to close the year.

interesting little factoid, the series record is 6-6

 

[Skeeter]

Temple v Toledo seems high on that list.

 

[DanishDonut0]

Where the heck do they pull these numbers from?

NIU- Boise St. = 3rd most exciting??
Florida-Michigan = 4 best quality?

Improvement rating? tha fuq?

 

[DHawkeye]

Temple v Toledo seems high on that list.

That's because it's a stupid list.

 

[Skeeter]

I agree. Mom's, girlfriends, and degenerate gamblers are the only ones watching that game.

 

[Dr. Shats Basoon]

that actually should be a pretty solid game. Probably not the 4th best out of the bunch but neither of them are bad teams.

 

[Skeeter]

As a degenerate gambler I agree. But I doubt the general public cares.
