Yep, still here
Arizona State almost deserved to lose after that.
Watched Colorado/Kansas(Rock Chalk baby)and Colorado is one of the most undisciplined teams I've seen. Jayhawks, with a losing record, have knocked off 3 straight top 25 teams for the first time in FBS history. Still not bowl eligible, they have to go one the road next week and beat Baylor to go bowling this year.
Bama got totally screwed on a call when they scored a TD. And the world smiled.
Actually, I doubt that. Given how "popular" the early bowl games are, the playoffs will get ratings that never happened prior to the New Year. They won't be comparable to the NY bowl games, perhaps, but it will extend the interest.
But, as you then point out, it's the same as it ever was, so nothing is going to change. People will gather around their school and go to football games. If it was really changing, then the places like the Kibbie Dome would constantly be empty.
The only real change is the TV exposure may be going back a decade or so, but thanks to streaming services, I can spend money to watch any game I want.
Nobody cares about bowl games.
How the f-ck did we lose to Northern Illinois? :-(
Just to put it out there:
Friends and I are already planning a "Guys Day" for Sat. 12/21. Basically go out and spend all day/evening at a few sports bars, eat/drink like kings, play pool/darts/slots/etc. and just have a grand ole time while watching 12 hours of football.
Basically we are treating it just like a Thur/Fri for the Bouncy Ball tourney.

I'm so old now that even considering having a day like that gives me a hangover.

Big road win against wisky today. Probably results in the badgers missing a bowl. They'd need a LOT of help and would need to avoid two wins in 7 coin flips amongst the 5-6 teams plus a few underdogs.

Yeah, maybe let's just do ties.
