Uh, what?

Colorado and BYU are playing each other in a bowl game?

Since when do bowls have teams from the same conference play each other???? (not counting playoffs of course)

I had to look this one up. For 2024 and 25 this bowl is using the old conferences for their tie in’s. So technically BYU is Big 12 and Colorado is PAC 12. It’s weird.

That is really weird, makes no sense

I do think it's pretty cool though that for the 2nd round the Rose Bowl is getting Oregon/OSU though

Think they had an opportunity to have Colorado actually play a variant of a BIG12 title game and took it.  They never played anyone at the top of that conference this year so it was sort of weird.   You never got a real look at how they even stacked up in conference.

as things continue to evolve in college football..…I think you will see schools that pay big money through the collective start ensuring the deals include playing out full seasons/postseason play.   

it’s pay to play.  It’s basically pro ball at the big schools.  No way they let kids cash big checks and then let them sit going forward without penalty.  You can’t do that in pay sports.  Think college football is far from done fixing this monster they created.

I doubt it. Someone will always break rank and offer elite prospects a deal without that stipulation to gain a recruiting advantage.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
