Rack Poptart.
Your bowl has zero defense. Just like your Raiders.
Exciting game. Thanks.

Without Fiat's updates how will we know which players are from the BAY AREA of CALIFORNIA?
This board is the best resource on the internet for career updates of Cali natives.

It takes negligible bandwidth to update Cal alums in the NFL, so let mtool continue.

I'm a big fan of former Californian Josh Allen. He played for the Wyoming Cowboys before refreshing Jim Kelly's legacy in Buffalo.

My bad. I was referring only to Cal Bears, rather than Californians.
I, too, am a big fan of Josh Allen.

He was recruited by Craig Bohl who should have been hired over Matt Rhule at Nebraska.
He only "retired" last year, so probably biding his time.

Yeah
Alabama belongs in the CFB playoff.
Too funny.

So, does Milroe bolt for the Draft or NIL?
Somebody will be dumb enough to sign him either way.

Bo's offense looks great.
3 yards and a cloud of punts.
And they're still beating bama.
Too funny.

Thanks bama, that was exciting football.
I guess we'll have to wait for some real football from the boys out west (Boise) when they play Ped State in a few hours.
Boise will show you folks east of the Rockies what a real running back looks like.
Milroe might make a fullback on the practice squad in the NFL.

Boise is the most overrated team in the playoff. No way they should be seeded 3rd, and Penn State wins the game easily.

You guys don't watch college football out West.

You actually think Boise will beat Penn State?
Or merely beat the point spread?

Can’t wait to watch this game.
Don’t be too shocked if it happens again.

Boise State will win.
And their running back will go for over 150 yards and break Barry Sanders single season rushing record.
I think that's the longest standing record in college football.

Oregon beat PSU this season 45-37.
They beat Boise State37-34
That was as BSU’s only loss. Make what you want of that.
It appears that BSU may have a crowd advantage.

Boise should have went for it on 4th down.
Hopefully, they won't make that mistake again.

Agree on the fourth down call. PSU looks pretty solid on both sides and BSU can’t afford to fuck up any chance to score.

BTW, Alabama should be embarrassed. That was a pitiful performance. I hope our west coast coach realizes that this team lacked any semblance of discipline all year. Nick must have been cringing for 3 hours.

Actually they don’t. They beat Oklahoma. They’ve been getting praise as giant killers ever since. Google their bowl games…not very impressive.

Even if they beat Penn State, they should never have been in the 3 spot. They have GOT to fix the way they did the playoff this year. No way either BSU or Arizona State should have gotten byes.

I don’t mind this at all. It ensured we got first round games at blue blood venues (Columbus, State College, South Bend, Austin) rather than Tempe or Boise or Bloomington or Fort Worth.
They should keep the byes for conference winners but re-seed after the first round. That would fix the injustice.

Looks like we may have a game.
On a side note, BSU apparently has been feeding some of their cheerleaders a few too many Idaho russets.

They’re in the 3 spot because of the rules. So, yes, they “should” be there. Maybe they need to change the rules but there no reason currently why they shouldn’t be there.

His former UW team was able to beat the scUMmers this year. More than can be said about our teams, Sam.

He didn’t beat ‘em last year either.
I don’t know what is going on in Tuscaloosa, but that bunch was rough to watch this year.

That’s correct. The rules should be changed.

Fun game so far.
Haven't seen Boise play this bad all year.
Looking for them to rebound in the 2nd half.
Ped State gets the ball to start the 2nd.

Wow.
The powers to be don't want Boise to move on.
Take a TD back on a flag that was thrown after he goes into the endzone.
Of course, they run the replay and can't find hands to the face on any player on Boise. The refs didn't even call the players number.
Too funny.

Thought I heard #65. The replay looked to me like he had his hands under the rusher’s face mask.

I just wound that back. The ref clearly called #65 (the RT) with the camera directly on him. The dumbass announcers completely missed it and thought he called 62 (the RG). They focused their attention on him during the replay but the infraction was pretty clear if you watched the guy just to his right.
