Does anyone else feel this way about tonight's championship game?
For me the New Year's games felt like the ending of the season.
I'll watch, but I can't remember ever being less excited about a national championship game.

I know...

Nope... I feel like a bunch of SEC media types have tried to talk up the "This NC game is anticlimactic because an SEC team isn't in the title game."


Thats a load of horseshite.

I'm just losing interest in college football altogether.

That could be it. After LSU's shite season, maybe I'm just not as pumped up for college football in general.

Again...

Its like there was this huge event on New Year's Day and then....nothing. The delay killed all of the momentum and it will only be worse in the coming years when the semis are played on NYE or Jan 2nd.

I know the Super Bowl has a two week gap but that is such a big event that the entire country focuses on. I don't know what the solution is and maybe it seems down due to there not being an SEC team, but there's a noticeable difference this year.

It should still be a great game.

Absolutely not. Two great teams in primetime. This game should be a shootout, and an awesome one.

If LSU doesn't win the title I don't want any other SEC team to. Conference pride is silly.

Should be an exciting game.

It just seems smaller without one of us in it.

Yeah this game should have been at least over the weekend. I hate the long layoff, and you're right, it took away a lot of momentum of wanting to watch it.

Nope. I'm really looking forward to the first one. I'm just glad Alabama got beat.

LSU fans are too sophisticated for that SEC! SEC! SEC! chant. Leave it to the slack-jawed yokels in Alabama and Georgia.

Everyone was hoping for Alabama & FSU. A shaky Alabama team was perceived as the best team from the toughest division. Now, we have a 2 vs 4, where no one wants to get behind the underdog (4), because it is not a Cinderella type team. If TCU was 4, there would be more excitement.



But to answer your question, I never get excited about championship games that my team is not in. I might go to a viewing party or flip to check the score, but I do not watch intently.

Anyone who thinks there is no excitement associated with this game is simply butthurt. This is going to be a great game and ratings will be through the roof.

Screw the SEC.
