Niners aren't beating Philly at Philly. Eagles will run the ball down their throat and beat them up as bad as Seattle.

Yeah, this is over.

Niners will also lose first round. They threw their last punches to beat the Bears.

That's a back breaker
If you're like me you'll transition from hard core fandom to "this is just entertainment". I like exciting close games and the storylines around them. The more at stake the better.

I have favorite teams, but if they lose I care for about 2 seconds and then I'm moving on. No more having a day or weekend ruined by what some 20 year old college kids do in a game.

I do watch a ton of sports though. Every bowl game, and after the football game is over I'll watch whatever hockey game is still going on the West Coast. Once football is over it's NHL every night. Then MLB every night. PGA every weekend. Then it's football season and here we go again.

High volume sports consumption but for the entertainment.

I know, it gets a bit ridiculous. Vanderbilt D averaged 21.15 ppg against in SEC play. Iowa puts up 34 in the bowl game, exceeding the average by almost 2 TDs.

We fired Brian Ferentz years ago. We have a capable offense now.

How do you let a guy get behind you like that?

Why is an Oregon fan starting a thread pimping Iowa?

BTW, the days of Iowa having no offense are over. Averaged over 29 ppg this season. We'd do just fine against SEC opponents.
Pop Tart Bowl was pretty much the only game on and had no competition. Of course there would be a ton of eyeballs on the game.
I don't know. Oregon will be a tough out, but Indiana looks like a team on a mission. They have an edge to them right now. They play this combination of pissed off, full go, with extreme execution.
No, please do put them all up North.

Outdoors in Utah would be pretty sweet this time of year.
Winter Classic at Wrigley, Fenway, and Target Field was pretty cool.

Hard to sell a Winter Classic in Florida with no chance of a snow game.
No air cast. Hoping it's just a bad sprain.
Wasn't dirty. He tackled his legs. Can't go high anymore.
Horrible thing to happen at this point in garbage time. His leg is broken. That was awful.

I will happily contradict myself when it comes to ND though. Those frickers wouldn't last 1 season in the SEC or any conference for that matter.


You're wrong about Notre Dame. That was a dang good team this year that lost a couple of close games to start the season. Two plays away from undefeated, miracle TD catch by Miami, and a failure by the refs to call a blatant hold on the TD winner for aTm.

That program is pissed off about this season and they're going to be a monster next year.

I get the hate, but you gotta put the bias aside and recognize reality.
Winter Classic used to be something to watch. Shine has worn off it, almost an afterthought on TNT now.

NHL has pretty much acknowledged that it's for the local market. It's still a pretty cool event for the hosting team.

I recorded it to watch sometime later. Watching bowl games and waiting for the Wild game.
