OT: College Football Playoffs Quarterfinal Games 12/31-1/1 Tues-Weds

Season 5 What GIF by Sony Pictures Television


 
PSU is Schiano’s vision, across the field, a Paterno guy. Psu is Rutgers with superior athletes. But will never happen here due to the Rutgers swamp, and poor Rutgers alumni donation support. 80M in conference revenue and Rutgers is still broke? DEI says get woke go broke

After this round of playoff games we probably will hear the higher seeds are disadvantage because they don't get a home game, and have too much time off lol.

Why aren't Sanders bowl yardage (200?) included?
I think the graphic earlier said they weren't.
I imagine once you fix the record books for one player there would be a push to do a lot more.
How many players are a few yards, tackles, receptions etc short of records?

Everyone in the conference gets the same amount. The top tier teams have “other” income. Donate your DOGE coins if you want to make a difference
 
Two take aways from being there.
This was the lowest attended Fiesta Bowl I’ve get been to regardless of announced attendance.
Boise fans greatly outnumbered PSU fans and got really loud. I’m assuming PSU fans counted on a win and wanted to save money for next weeks game
 
This is probably true. Expansion did help a "team almost" like PSU. I think would've made a 12 team playoff about 4-5 times IIRC and this year PSU lucked out on top of that with an easier path. Wisconsin has fallen lately but I think they might have made 3 in a 12 teams scenario.




 
With the horrific tragedy in New Orleans early today, have to wonder if the Sugar Bowl will be impacted. As of now, the game is scheduled to go on. However, there has been some reporting that there are still ongoing discussions about that. They have to be comfortable about having enough resources for security purposes.

I think many are simply because of cost. Once Penn State won I checked flights from PA and they were all $500+ compared to the $124 they are today for Miami. Not to mention there is far more alumni in the Miami area then Phoenix.

Boise had three drives end in Penn State territory with no points because of 2 missed FGs and a TD that was called back. Granted, Boise wouldn't have hung around if Penn State had just run the ball.
By the score alone, sure it looked like a blowout. The missed FGs were pretty easy shots too. Make those, and final score is 31-20. That's the same points Ohio State scored on Penn State. The difference was 4 turnovers by Boise State. This will be mocked, but whatever.

Boise State Passing/Rushing:
Pass: 23/35 for 304 yards 8.7 ypc
Rush: 108 yards, 2.7 yards per carry

Ohio State Passing/Rushing:
Pass: 16/24 for 182 yards 7.6 ypc
Rush: 176 yards, 4.4 yards per carry

Turnovers and Kicking game killed Boise State. They get an asterisk trophy for putting up more yards than Ohio State. 🙃
Every game is it's own entity. Penn State's defense held back Jeanty, and their pass defense was elite.

Let’s see if ASU can come out composed and settled, haven’t seen that from any of the big CFP underdogs yet.

All of them had a bit of deer in headlights feel to start their games.
 
If he didn’t touch that ball it’s a roughing the kicker

It wasn’t touched and they’re calling running into the kicker but I think it was as roughing considering the force, still gives ASU the first.
 
I’m surprised he’s kicking it because like they said they’ve had issues with FGAs.

They made it though, 3-0 ASU

Me too. 4 of 12 on FGA and that guy had only made one all year before now. Texas is winning at the LOS, just can’t commit stupid penalties.
 
I'm sure a lot of people had flights out of NOLA for tomorrow.

Lotta fans with no hotel rooms tomorrow night likely.
I guess just go to the game then head straight for the airport - if they can reschedule flights. Either way, NO and the FBI need to do whatever they need to do to make sure the event is safe.
