Oh snap. Penix should've just gotten picked.

It's so ridiculous. Being bowl eligible used to mean something. Now you have to be completely terrible not to go to a bowl so no one really cares outside of the playoffs. Draft prospects even sit out the NYE6 bowls. There should be maybe 12-15 bowl games tops. Legacy TV contracts are the only thing keeping all these bowls alive. Viewership ratings have to be terrible and most are attended at the level of a HS game.

If you're going to have a billion bowls at least get rid of conference time ins and make them regionally relevant. If you have say UNC and Tennessee playing in Charlotte it's going to be well attended. Have the same game in Phoenix and who's going?

Don't forget all the schools getting the million or whatever it is they get paid for a bowl game. Even with low attendance and ratings, there's too much money in all them bowl games for the NCAA and networks to be willing to give them up.

Pretty good game. Too bad Washington won.

[LinvilleGorge]

Washington survives. But I wouldn't call that a Heisman moment for Penix. He could've easily thrown two picks on that final drive and they got a gift of a roughing the passer call.

Florida just walked in for a TD over FSU

It wouldn't surprise me a bit for FSU to lose this game without Travis.

[Shocker]

This Florida vs FSU game has upset written all over it

It's almost showtime.

[LinvilleGorge]

Wow. FSU feels the upset too. Hey just tried to run a fake punt from their own 30 and it would've been successful too if not for the delay penalty.

[LinvilleGorge]

What was that punt? It's almost like he had a punt or throw read and waited way too late until the rush was on him and ends up shaking one out of bounds just trying to get it off.

What a huge swing. From a 4th down conversion and drive still going to a 16 yard punt.

If UNC loses this game (honestly likely with the way our D has collapsed) the calls for Mack's forced retirement are gonna get LOUD.

Feels like we need to score 50 to have a chance every game.

[LinvilleGorge]

FSU is gonna lose. They lost their heart and soul last weekend. They're playing like they know it.

Maybe. I'm not sure which team has the most to gain from this game either. UNC had high expectations that went down the gutter, so they probably feel the need to beat the "lesser team", and State is playing for pride at home and maybe the "upset"
