I would guess it does, I bet they’re favored by 12 or so if it was a regular season game.

No, it is dumb as hell. Especially when they kept holding it up as Ohio State's best win, which they immediately devalued.

Worst part about the Music City Bowl for UK fans is it starts the same time as the UK-UL basketball game, especially fans that wanted to go to one or both. I also don't like that it's Iowa two years in a row. One of the fun things about bowl season is getting matchups you don't normally see, I want some variety.

Many bowls, like everyone's OOC schedules, should be decided by those lottery machines.

NY6 are hand picked.
After that, everyone is divided up into tiers based on their W/L record and bowls are grouped according to their general prestige (which we all already sort of know)

Still don’t love going against Bowers but it’s legitimately more favorable than Michigan having 3-4 guys who are potential vert threats at all times.

AD Mitchell got in the game yesterday for a bit and threw a 2-pt conversion on a trick play; if that guy can actually fully heal by a few weeks then hey, there's one more vert threat WR than the current 0.5 (Arian Smith, track speed but oft-injured and not great hands)

Louisville hoops is 0-8 and lost their ACC opener by 30 points, anyone wanting to go watch that is into snuff films.

Yeah in preseason predictions i figured 8-4, maybe 9-3 this year if things went well. 10-2 with a rose bowl surpasses any realistic expectation for this year going in. Feels nice after the last two seasons

I think I posted a thread years ago to the same effect, proposing a ping pong ball lottery for regular season OOC games. Some folks brought up cogent points on why that would be problematic but truthfully idgaf and fully agree, gently caress the financials nationalize college football and redistribute chaos

UGA DBs better eat their Wheaties between now and NYE. Ohio State was the exact team the Dawgs didn't want to face in the semis, but here they are.

UGA's a tougher team on the whole but I've already got nightmares about those WRs casually strolling through open space 40 YAC.

Honestly its a concern but it isn't super high on my list. If they let the UGA D go after Stroud and just maul them all game, I have a feeling it'll be a gameplan like we saw against TN. Give them all the short poo poo they want but make them pay if they run it or hold on for a deeper pass. I think it'll be a good game either way.
