here is what the bcs has given us

[Danzig]

my father in law complained the other day (he's an arkansas fan) about lsu getting a bowl, that there are 'too many of the damned things'...funny, i don't recall him bitching when arkansas got that vegas bowl a few years back....he didn't seem to appreciate me saying so either.
whether they should have gotten a bid, i enjoyed watching the tigers play-and look forward to next year, with a more mature jordan jefferson at the helm. so....whether they deserved it or not, i was happy to catch them in action one more time before next fall. sue me.

is it me or is this group of New Years day bowl games the most uninteresting you have ever seen? Outside of the Rose Bowl I have very little interest in any of them.

cincy/v tech seems like a yawner....i'm also very interested in the psu/usc game...that's about it.

I think if you give Cincy a chance, you will be impressed with them. The problem for them is they get a crappy VT.

How Pike doesn't score a TD on that 4th and goal is beyond me. It's like he waited to get hit. Grow a set and put your head down.

These bowl games have been atrotious.

I was just going to post the same and think the ratings will bear this out perhaps this apathy on new years day is the first of the necessary set backs for the bucks of college football that will finally move a limited tourney toward reality

I'll 2nd it too. Rose only one worth watching (although the MSU-GA game's tied at end of 1st quarter).

ratings will be better than you think based on the last week.colin cowherd was readin the tv rating for bowl week so far. 5 of the top 8 have been bowl games. one game got a 5 which was higher than the world series and the nba any night.

i agree most of the match-up are uninteresting. i'm a college football junkie and i'm more disgusted by the piss-poor play! lsu has been the best looking team i've seen so far.

LOL....Betting sports is amazing. What was it 38 seconds to go? S.C. Snaps it over the guy's head. Got to sweat the end zone pass attempt. Nothing seems easy when they are giving out money.

First New Years Day I can recall that I never even gave a thought to turning on any of the games.

Until college football goes to a playoff they won't get me watching any of these crappy bowls.

Jefferson had a great game....will be fun to watch next year!

And we have to remember that the bowls help make cash for the conferences
and keep the majority of college football junkies like me happy
