CFB 2023 Bowls & Championships: The best gosh darn thread a television executive could ask for

Ale Xander · Dec 12, 2023

Hoping for some snow at Fenway to scare the SMU kids. 11am can be cold in late December too.

Can’t wait until Jan 1
What a lineup

Not bowl related, but CFB related:

I hope Oregon stomp Liberty back into obscurity.

They have to decide to show up first. If they do, they should accomplish that mission.

Isn't like half the team opting out? I'm only half joking.

Ale Xander · Dec 13, 2023

SEC 2024 schedules are out

it seems weird to do it so early (before NYD)

OCST · Dec 15, 2023

Don’t sleep on that Birmingham Bowl. Caught some of Troy in their conference championship. Their RB is unstoppable. Fun team to watch.

Lose Remerswaal · Dec 15, 2023

Go Great Danes!

Lose Remerswaal · Dec 15, 2023

Oh well

OCST · Dec 16, 2023

This Avocados from Mexico Cure Bowl with Miami (OH) and App State in a monsoon in Orlando is a tough watch. You’d have to be someone’s mom to be toughing this one out and maybe not then.

OCST · Dec 16, 2023

App States helmet with the hillbilly is much better than the A

OCST · Dec 16, 2023

Love watching Montana at home. That would be a great road trip.

Warning Track Speed · Dec 16, 2023

Big Sky Bash?

The Griz games are so much fun. I went to the first two playoff games but not there today. Feels kinda tenuous for the Griz here up 4 in the 3rd quarter, not sure the defense can hold.

Ale Xander · Dec 16, 2023

damn I forgot about this game

Ale Xander · Dec 16, 2023

fake and 15

LETS GO

Ale Xander · Dec 16, 2023

scored too soon?

go for 2?

Ale Xander · Dec 16, 2023

tie game

51 seconds left

Lose Remerswaal · Dec 16, 2023

Good game.

Ale Xander · Dec 16, 2023

That was quick

Ale Xander · Dec 16, 2023

Grizzlies need to go for 2

Ale Xander · Dec 16, 2023

They should go for 2?
Where was this offense in first 3 quarters

Lose Remerswaal · Dec 16, 2023

I would go for two and give it to #10

Ale Xander · Dec 16, 2023

Insanity

shawnrbu · Dec 16, 2023

Hilarious 2 point conversion.

Just how they drew it up

Totes.

Zoo Crew going crazy.

Ale Xander · Dec 16, 2023

Grizzly Bears v. Bunnies seems like an unfair fight in the animal kingdom

DJnVa · Dec 18, 2023

UCLA's bowl win the other day was in a stadium closer to their campus than where they play their home games.

WKU was down 21 at the half. Now down 7 with the ball. 7:47 left in the 4th.

Tied 35-35 and likely going to OT. They scored with 19 seconds left. It was 28-0 in the 2nd quarter.

Didn't realize until you triggered me doing some investigating that they've been playing at the Rose Bowl for 40 years.

And they're there for the next 20; lease is unbreakable unless an earthquake tears it apart or something like that.

But you're right, UCLA playing at the Rose Bowl is like BU reviving football and playing in Hopkinton.

CarolinaBeerGuy · Dec 18, 2023

This game is nuts

I tuned in hallways through the 3rd as background nose and it went sideways real fast. WKU picked off the first OT drive and can win with a FG now.

Edit: and they get it. What a crazy huge comeback. They were dead.

I started watching at halftime because I had nothing else going on. Ended up with an insane comeback win for WKU.

Catcher Block · Dec 22, 2023

I'm not sure interceptions get better than this, from the GT - UCF game. Confirmed on review, none of the half-dozen angles showed the ball hitting the ground.

Arkansas State recovers an onside kick. Refs call offsides.

The team was not offsides. Not reviewable. Great way to end a fun game, with the refs choking and overreacting. Again.

shawnrbu · Dec 23, 2023

Butch Jones called one of his three timeouts so that he could yell at the refs some more.

Ale Xander · Dec 23, 2023

This Lockheed Martin CEO looks out of place.

shawnrbu · Dec 23, 2023

How is JMU an underdog against Air Force?

shawnrbu · Dec 23, 2023

Credit to Shawn Elliott for getting a group of 20 year olds from Georgia motivated to play a game in Boise in late December.

shawnrbu · Dec 23, 2023

Nimrod is an all time great Kicker name.

Yeah, they could have gotten the ball back w/about 40 seconds left if they forced a 3 and out. NIU got a first down on the first play anyway.

JMU got wiped by 10

I know it's mid day on a Tuesday, but I feel like this is a pretty sweet bowl game for the third place team in the MAC East.

Agreed. And I will fade all Big 10 West teams so think Bowling Green might win fairly handily.

Detroit in late December? Pass

RedHawks got a better draw

(I’m not counting the quality of the stadia, just the environment)
