OT: Sewercuse and Minny In the pinstripe bowl
- Thread starter Proud NJ Sports Fan
- Start date
Play in a baseball stadium the Bronx in wintertime. College football at its finest.
If their RB is healthy they may have a chance
Sewercuse’s RB is really good too
Hard Pass.
F that joke of a Bowl. South Bronx , late December, Baseball Stadium, Horrible view of the Field, bad field for the players, and Extortion concessions and Parking costs. Won’t miss it ever.
The pinstripe bowl I went to was perhaps my least enjoyable live football experience, even with the club seats.
Oddly enough it is an upgrade in climate for both!
Are people playing tennis in Long Island going to care about this one?
There's a game in Fenway this year... even worse!
Underrated post. Good job lol.
At least they made a bowl. Can’t say that about Rutgers
So you rather sit at home then play in a Bowl game?
IMO, it’s not the game itself, it’s the additional practice time these players get that’s beneficial. And yes that bowl stinks
Statistically Minny has the better Rushing Offense, Passing Defense, and slightly better Rushing Defense
Cuse has the better Passing Offense.
Purdue beat Minn 20-10. Minn star RB Ibrahim didn't play.
Cuse beat Purdue 32-29 on a last minute TD pass.
Based on the patchwork-quilt turf they throw down on the infield for these bowl games, if I’m Ibrahim I’m opting out. I hate it when players opt out, but I hate the field that much more.
That would suck but with his injury history no one could blame him.
Rutgers was a late fill in their bowl game last season. How many practices did they get in?
Toure got injured too I think which hurt the team in 2022.
The only thing I am envious of is not having a good enough record to make a bowl
But this bowl sucks in a big way for all the reasons you mention
Gator Bowl payout last year 3.1 million, Pinstripe Bowl payout 4.4 million. Didn’t hear anyone complain about the Gator Bowl sucking last year. With that being said, when the 12 team playoff begin all the bowls outside of the playoffs will suck.
Will sit at home for that Bowl.
Would travel to any other Bowl game……
It is not the payout that is the problem
The pinstripe is a lousy venue for a game and the worst that I have been to, going to most bowls
LOL - the same posters, year-after-year, bitching about a game they claimed would NEVER make it past a year. Then 2 years. Then 3 years. The only "joke" is on those posters.
(** obviously I'd rather go to a warm-weather site, in a football stadium, duh!)

If A&M hadn't backed out the Gator payout would have been around $5.3 million. It was greatly reduced when they needed RU to play the game

What don’t you understand?
The joke is this Bowl continues to under draw fans vs. other Bowls. NO INTEREST.
If not for “local” teams playing: Syracuse, Rutgers, Penn State, or ND this Bowl would be a total flop.

It has NOT "under drawn" fans. That's a fallacy made up here by you and a few others. It typically outdraws an entire handful of games and, some years, even more. You're just soooo obsessed with HATING this game I think you really don't pay much attention to a bunch of games played prior to this one.

I would love to see us play again even in Pinstripe..Couple more weeks of practice ...If you hate the seats, parking, concessions just stay home and enjoy a RU Football game on your big screen or at your local gin mill...If we play well and Win it would be a boost...If we lose it will also probably help unless its a blow out
The worst bowl in history, maybe ever.
I think I've paid like $20 all three times I've gone. Traffic no issue. Great City vibe. Not the best seating but who cares? Football used to be played in baseball stadiums all the time.
Better options? Yeah sure. Worst? Ha. Only for somehow spoiled Rutgers fans.
Great city vibe in the Bronx next to the Major Deegan Expressway and the Projects?
If you’ve never been to a warm weather bowl game then it’s better than nothing.

The game against iowa state was lots of fun. I also saw Penn state and bc there and it was electric. The nd game stunk because you know Kyle flood.
Hanging out in the bars under the tracks is always fun. You make what you make of things.
You make it sound like Yankee stadium never draws fans or isn't a fun place to go. 3 million people per year would disagree.

How many of the 2 million attend games at YS during the Winter?
Edit. It was 3.1 mm and you're moving the goal posts. Now it's not the city but the weather.
Btw I've been to Texas, Toronto, Detroit, Birmingham, Tampa, Bronx (3 times)
