College Bowl Season

My wife and I went to Famous Toastery bowl Monday. We were about to leave when it was 28-0 ODU. But we stayed to watch the bands at the half. We stayed the whole game and I would put that up against any other bowl game yet to be played. IMG_20231218_181311650_HDR.thumb.jpg.c2dc5be7fdef66100d3df1f3dd5fcb66.jpg

You know how I know the bowls are dead? I've never even heard of the majority of the sponsors and I don't even care to look into who they are. I just chuckle that they pissed their money away to slap their name onto a toilet bowl. 😂

This poo has to be abysmal ROI driven by boomer executives who still think it's a big time power play to be a bowl sponsor.

It's still football to me. I don't care what the name is. Just let me love it

I used to love the Panthers and I know this is a pro forum. But, you have to admit that Panthers are a bad product to watch. The pros deserve credit for playing twenty games at that level. But there are a ton of injuries and I don't necessarily think sometimes it's always the best game to watch. I love the college level too and I also love a good highschool game with no TV time outs. It's just football in a pure form with kids learning. Sorry for off topic stuff. Hope everyone has a great Christmas. Hope there's better Panther football ahead.

The college game by and large is just more entertaining right now than the NFL. It's just the bowls that suck. Georgia vs. Florida State is a badass football game. But no one wants to see Georgia vs. Florida State minus all the guys on those teams that are likely getting drafted next year. That isn't actually Georgia vs. Florida State.

    • I love this draft because they picked the right OL.  It is possible that we have 2 rookies starting on the OL.  I would take Utah's Lomu as well, but for those who think you find the OL in free agency and not the draft, here is all I have to say:  We cannot give $110m to the 5 starting OL.  We need an infusion of youth on the OL as well.  If Ickey returns and can play, I imagine that he takes over for Hunt at RG--in 2027 or so.  Currently, our 2 guards and right tackle make up over 20% of the total cap.  We have to add 2 starters, but if Cade Mays was too pricey at around (anticipated) $8m, then we plan to draft a C, it seems. I think we draft an OT and C now because we will need a G or 2 and a RT soon.  While they were good in 2026, they were not elite.  For that kind of $$, we need elite.  Is starting a rookie LT and C ideal?  Nope.  But if we can get better than Nijman and Mays, we should be OK. I think we will pick up an ILB in free agency and add an ILB.  Who we draft (Mike or Will) will depend on who we sign.  Rodriguez is a favorite of mine, but if Golday is there, Morgan is going to take him.  Morgan will love him. I do not think we need to overpopulate the edge position right now because we have 1 edge returning from injury (Jones II), one rookie from last year ready to step up and could be really good (Scourton), and another who could be ready to step into the situational pass rusher role (Princely).  2 hold the edge very well and if we had a situational pass rusher to join Princely, we could be much better. I think rookies at Edge tend to jump considerably from their rookie seasons to years 2 and 3.  (Charles Johnson, Mike Rucker, and Greg Hardy were that way-and all became very good in time. Safety seems omitted, but we shall see.  That could be another free agent acquisition.
    • Id like Evans from Duke in the draft as a shooter for the second unit. And probably a more athletic big to replace all, he's good but doesn't really fit the style. White, Evans, green, Williams and center tbd is a pretty good second unit
