Watching Pervert State University vs Clem's Son in the Pinstripe Bowl.
Neither team looks to have any offense to speak of (at the end of the first quarter it is 3-0). All I can think is I'm glad we're Dawgs. The orange Auburn-in-the-hills offense is terrible so far.
Of course I'm cheering for Clemson because PSU shouldn't even be allowed to play football.
There are plenty of other minor and "major" bowls which are surely of interest to some college football fans. I'm not talking playoff games of course as all of them are interesting, but here is not the right thread for them according to me.
Go, Dawgs!

bowl games so far seem dead. Almost like a televised scrimmage
What they have become.
I am opting out and preparing for the draft. May take me awile.
I'm opting out for my team and preparing for next season by not practicing. Notre Dame has shown us the way.
Ain't it great having a coach such as Kirby who understands the importance of bowl games (Florida State will remember how they thought bowl games were an opportunity to prepare for the afterlife or something.).
Apparently Notre Dame knows something about football, something important, unknown to Kirby.
Go, Dawgs!
About to watch the Tech v. BYU game…
Should be a good’un!
Want to say bye to Haynes King!
Looks like Tech might get their 10th win. Good for them. King has had a nice career there.
People will be watching Tech next year to see if there is a drop-off without Faulkner\King.
Did Philo officially transfer? I hate that for Tech. Who will they have at QB next year, I wonder…
can ga tech waste any more time? This is text book on how not to manage last drive and yet they have a chance to win
I was sort of pulling for Tech to win after that great 4th-and-15 conversion. Then found myself laughing at hapless Tech blowing its chance with silly play calls at the end.
King has had a nice career there.
Agree💯!
That’s why I want to say bye to him….there was always a doubt on the opposing side of any team he faced when that young man had the ball in his hands…….
[Edit] remember that last drive against us this year where he threw the Hail May pass!? Shades of UTjr in 2016! Whose heart didn’t stop until we batted the ball down!?( like we didn’t do in 2016!)
He has as much drive, heart and a ferocious “will to win” as any player I’ve ever seen….an under-sized Tim Tebow!
Just saw his last play as a Tech player……an interception in the end zone on a last sacond fourth and ten yard try after driving the length of the field……he gave his all for the white and gold!
If I was a Tech fan (and as many of you have heard me say, that’s how I grew up), I would not be more proud of that young man’s gamesmanship and to have had him lead my team these last years!
A truly respected adversary! And I wish him all the luck!
I believe that’s the word…. the talk is that he is following Buster Faulkner to floriduh…..actually hate it for tech!
Really nobody else but young, unproven newbies at QB…..my guess is they will look to the portal.
Coach Key has made the program relevant again…..should be able to attract a good player!
It was!!!
Has the ACC won anything yet other than the U?
Clempson lost today!!
And they still SU.ck!
Not that it matters, but so far Louisville, and NC State, have won bowl games. Mizzou needs to step it up or you can add the Wahoo's to the ACC list.
edit: add Virginia to the list.
mizzou looked bad
