Uh, what?

Colorado and BYU are playing each other in a bowl game?

Since when do bowls have teams from the same conference play each other???? (not counting playoffs of course)

I had to look this one up. For 2024 and 25 this bowl is using the old conferences for their tie in’s. So technically BYU is Big 12 and Colorado is PAC 12. It’s weird.

That is really weird, makes no sense

I do think it's pretty cool though that for the 2nd round the Rose Bowl is getting Oregon/OSU though

Think they had an opportunity to have Colorado actually play a variant of a BIG12 title game and took it.  They never played anyone at the top of that conference this year so it was sort of weird.   You never got a real look at how they even stacked up in conference.

as things continue to evolve in college football..…I think you will see schools that pay big money through the collective start ensuring the deals include playing out full seasons/postseason play.   

it’s pay to play.  It’s basically pro ball at the big schools.  No way they let kids cash big checks and then let them sit going forward without penalty.  You can’t do that in pay sports.  Think college football is far from done fixing this monster they created.

I doubt it. Someone will always break rank and offer elite prospects a deal without that stipulation to gain a recruiting advantage.

    • I think you have to compare the pass rushers to the weight of the O-line, average O-linemen is 300+ lbs. An OLB at 270 is going to have a hard time not being mauled by someone 30+ lbs heavier than you, that's just physics. Peppers being a freak of nature is my point, these type of players don't come around often. Abdul Carter is 251 lbs, he's got speed but will he hold up against the run?  Burns had all the athleticism in the world but we all knew he couldn't hold up against the run. 
    • I once was attacked and I tried defending myself.  It escalated, so I contacted the mods to explain how, in my view, it crossed the line and that it was persisting.  The troll was very insulting and trolled me on other threads--giving me poo, insulting me--now, I just want to find a pocket of people with common sense and good football ideas to communicate with, but he kept showing up.  After blocking him, he kept commenting about me to the others on the thread.  Privately, I reported it.  It does not matter if you agreed with the complaint or not, you handled it like a troll yourself, without examining the details of my concern. You decided to force your opinions about me scold me on a public thread, insisting that I engaged in it--you obviously had not read the threads, but that was not the issue.  The issue is that you decided to address the matter in the public threads--not privately as it was presented to moderators.   In my view, you were using the moderator position to troll me--nobody reported me to moderators--so you were way out bounds. So, I did as you suggested and this was the result.
    • I was thinking the same thing. I understand his reasoning, but if he comes out and says that SS won't play for so-and-so franchise I wouldn't be surprised to see SS drop in the draft.  I'm looking for the Raiders to make a deal (either overtly or covertly) to draft S. Sanders. He's already got a relationship with Tom Brady, who is a minority owner with the team. The Raiders DESPARATELY need a franchise QB. I think the Sanders family and the NFL would be glad to see him end up in Las Vegas.
