because while they may not mean much to players these days, they always matter to degenerates

3 games today:

Minn (-3) vs Bowling Green - can the rats avenge the worst loss agains the spread in recent memory? I’m taking BG

Texas state (-3.5) vs Rice - former NU QB alert, mccaffrey having a nice year as a Rice WR. Not sure what to think about this one, will likely lay the number with Texas St.

Kansas (-11.5) vs UNLV - I’m taking Rebs and the points

so you're opting out?

or believe the others to be meaningless?

Haha! Got me.

I think we have too many bowl games, and have thought so since 2000 or so.

Its part of the reason even the big ones are seen being meaningless.

I do think non p4 conferences should have bowlinvites, but not for 6-6 and 7-5 teams.

2 Gopher QBs entered portal. They only have one left on roster who has thrown a total of 14 passes his entire career. Still, they have a capable defense and a fair o-line.

Baldy wins his 6th straight bowl game.

It's why I tell people to chill when they keep showing an attractive or semi-attractive female repeatedly. They always do that.

On a side note I wouldn't be surprised if someone on the crew is jacking off to that woman tonight. I have the game on mute in the background and I was wondering if she was some famous actress or someone like that.

I haven't seen McCaffrey the WR

I am interested

over 59 is enticing

Kid will probably end at WR in the NFL and play a position that everyone in Nebraska knew he should have been at all along. I swear I watched him actually try and complete a pass and throw it into the stands. Not throwing it away.

Another much maligned QB I wanted to see more of

The best win of the frost era came with him at QB

2nd best QB career winning percentage since Armstrong, I believe, though the sample size is very small

I’m a college football gambling junkie, or degenerate as you say, but find it hard to bet these bowl games. And I want to badly. Just so many intangibles, tho. Guys opting out, coaching turnovers, and not just head coaches. Motivation factor. So I quit after the regular season. Can’t figure any of the teams out. Did Rice QB Daniels even play tonight? And fwiw, I liked Kansas tonight. Bean is still playing.

If Texas St wins that same bowl next year it will be their Second First Responder Bowl win

unlv brings back memories of Rocky Hinds. I thought he was the greatest recruit ever in the young days of the internet

Kansas receivers and DBs are abusing UNLV. Hasn’t even mattered that they’re getting flagged every other play

All three favorites covered yesterday, a square’s dream

Four games today:

Virginia Tech (-10) vs Tulane - no coach or QB for the Green Wave, yet I can still see them keeping it close. VT was awful all season. Give me the 10.

West Virginia (-6) vs UNC - no drake maye for the Heels. I like WV to bully them and cover

Louisville (-6.5) vs USC - taking the Cards because I think USC just wants this season over with

Oklahoma St (-3) vs Texas A&M - part of me wants to take A&M to rub it in jimbos face but I’m a big Gundy fan. Tough one. Took Okst -3.5

Luv WV at 6.5
without Caleb I have no idea the back up is Louy would be the better pick.
Haven’t decided on the Tejas Bowl.

Drake opted out???? I had not heard that. Guess I should just expect that **** at this point. Fvcktard.

Caleb I get...his stock is sinking, bad showing in the bowl outta do it..but I thought Drake had a shot to go #1. Good bowl showing might make it happen.
