Wash dude could not be more wide open

Arch Manning could have hit him.

Arch Manning could have hit him.

Might have made it so the guy fell on his ass and didn't score a TD though

 

[TampaBuckeyes]

Arch Manning could have hit him.

Don’t know if I’d go that far.

Williams tearing Boise up

Of course, short fields from INTs help

Example 101 of why the low level conference champs don’t belong in a playoff with the bigger boy teams. I don’t care what their record is.

They do not have the same level or depth of talent.

Even a solid but not great Washington would be a better playoff inclusion than a MWC, AAC, Sun Belt champ.

My old Army unit is now a Space Force Unit, and I work for the USSF as a contractor.

But let’s give every conference winner an auto bid.

But let’s give every conference winner an auto bid.

If it continues to keep Notre Dane out of the playoffs, I’m cool with it.

I’ve seen the comments that this type of “donation for admittance” reflects poorly upon the bowl games and their significance. Personally, I feel this is amazing. Schools are getting paid regardless, and families in need will be fed over the cold season holidays. My family and I would definitely be there if I lived in the area.

It's practical and provides real world, tangible benefits to people.

Of course idealists would be opposed.

They could have also asked for 2 coke products to get into a game. But that’s been done before.

I agree The money is made from TV rights not attendance. Do good during the holidays (and all year?)

I genuinely miss reading Eleven Warriors (and other outlets) cover the gifts players got for being in these bowl games. Was really cool to see these big college stars geek out over a small electronic and tee shirts. Something wholesome about it.
