Seems like the B1G got some tough draws. I'm not sure this will end well as a whole for the conference.

Iowa vs TN will be interesting. I've seen the TN QB and his arm strength is unbelievable. In person it's obvious he's on a different level. He may not be the most accurate or the best decision maker? I haven't followed his progress so I don't know how good he is overall.

I know it won't end up like this but I got MN to win and every one else an L.

OSU's starting QB Kyle McCord has entered the transfer portal. That is crazy. Sure, just make it easy for Mizzou. :mad:

He stunk and saw the writing on the wall. OSU had a generational wide receiver along with another 1st round wide receiver and plenty of other talent and once again couldn't beat Michigan.

I’m at the Tampa airport right now (heading for Indy) and seeing many Georgia Tech fans coming in for tonight’s Gasparilla Bowl.
I think Alex Golesh (USF) will become a very good coach despite the Beckman baggage.

Here’s a list of player who opted out/transferred out for each bowl game. You look at some of these matchups and wonder what is the point of even playing the game:

This is nuts. I'm not sure if it pertains to other teams as well, although I'm sure it does, but for JMU it says players who have entered the portal may still play.

How does that work, leading up to the game?

"Yeah, I'm 99% sure that I'm bouncin', but I guess I'll do it one more time with you all."

And if I'm the coach, I would tell said player that if you don't want to be here, then don't the door hit you where the good Lord split ya....
