Whew, it won't compete against the Pop Tart Bowl (#12 BYU Cougars vs the #22 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets - Saturday, December 27, 2025, at 3:30 PM ET)

And yes, the Pop Tart Bowl DOES have the best marketing plan of all the bowls

BYU? Hell, they have at least as strong of an argument as ND for being snubbed from the playoffs. Why didn't they take their ball and go stomping home? What are they doing playing?

BYU vs GT looks like it'd be a good game in general. Looking forward to that (plus the pop tart shenanigans)

Somewhat ironically, BYU, previously before joining a reformulated Big 12, was also an Independent.

If we get into a situation where the Seattle game doesn’t matter, would Canales rest starters for the away Tampa game?

There will be a lot more clarity after the game tonight and our game Sunday to these scenarios, but there is a chance where the Seattle game means nothing.

If we win at NO and the home game against Tampa, I say we rest our starters and do 2 weeks of prep for Tampa (and just ignore watching film on Seattle). Extra plus out of that is not giving Seattle any meaningful tape if we meet them in the playoffs.

That being said, 1) we probably don't win both those games with how Jekyll & Hyde we are, and 2) I doubt DC rests our starters

As flat as they came out after preseason and a single "victory Monday" I wouldn't be resting the starters either.

if this season has taught us anything.....

the Seattle game might be the one we are most likely to win.  Saints the hardest. Darnold still has those disaster games in him and might gift us.

      I really think Bryce has been given so much time due to what they've put around him. In a vacuum, he hasn't been good enough. But I think we tend to be overly judgemental with him because he's our QB. Every fan base does it. You see every mistake, not just the highlights/lowlights. I've listened to Cowboys fans crap on Dak and Ravens fans crap on Lamar.  How many WRs from Bryce's rookie season are still making plays today? Probably a few starting olinemen from that year are out of the league too. Hell even his HC is out of the NFL and his OC is a TE coach right now. How many WRs from last season, Bryce's second year (other than the rookies) are making plays in the NFL today? And now in his third year, he's been passing to rookies and second year players. And the only one that was highly touted was TMac. Heck Coker wasn't even drafted, and he's easily been the second best receiver on the team. And let's not even get started on how bad the defense has been. When a team is constantly playing from behind, and/or being ran off the field (time of possession), it greatly impacts the offense's chemistry and playcalling. Look at the young QBs that are playing well right now. All of those teams have great defenses. Houston, Denver, Patriots, Cleveland, even the Saints defense has been on a bit of a tear recently.  I agree he needs to be more consistent. But to be fair, so does his supporting cast. He had some horrible fumbles early in the season. I beat him up over that just like everyone else. But we wouldn't have said that if it was Stafford. We would have rightly blamed it on the oline for allowing jail breaks when they weren't even outnumbered on blitzes, and to top it off he was throwing to a bunch of young receivers. He killed teams for blitzing him the end of last season. I don't think he forgot what to do. I think his receivers didn't know what to do. They were all young and new, other than XL, and DCs exploited that. The team is developing right now. And amazingly Bryce is playing better. Funny how that works. Let's just enjoy the ride and see where it takes us. Getting there is half the fun, and the team is actually ahead of schedule.
