Kind of to be expected in today’s college football in a kind of meaningless game

Insane how both 18 and 7 are sitting out the bowl game.

I think its officially time to stop the tradition.

Unless the prior era’s bowl games had a chance for a national championship, bowl games were always meaningless.

It is past time to do away with these bowl games.

Aren’t they getting paid? Why do they get to opt out?

Best line in that article

quote:

Despite his intention to enter the transfer portal, Carius Curne will play against Houston and has not ruled out the possibility of a return to LSU.

Add West Weeks to the list

West Weeks is also expected to sit out Saturday. Davhon Keys and Tylen Singleton are expected to start.

The young guys need snaps anyway. This is a win-win. It lets Lane evaluate the depth chart.

They're not getting paid to play yet, just for the use of their name, image, and likeness.

This game is completely meaningless in the grand scheme. Let the younger guys get some run and see what they’ve got.

So don’t watch. Also teams can still scrimmage on their own if they want to.

Personally, I like more opt outs of guys leaving because this bowl should be all about getting a sample size for all the players coming back next year. Guys like TaRon should get snaps.
