Not sure which party slipped this in, so I have no dog in the fight, but not letting players get drafted from service academies bc they first have to fulfill their 5 year service requirement (which they would still need to do when out of the league) is really stupid. To date, Army has only had two players drafted.

They shouldn't even have verbal commitments. They are meaningless.

Re-entering the initial recruitment portal!  Verbal is what they do to reduce the recruitment distraction for a while.

Bowl games not part of the CFP playoff have become absolutely pointless.  They are like watching spring intrasquad scrimmages.

I have personally felt this way for years, outside of gambling. Back to the BCS days.

As long as I'm entertained, that's all that matters to me. And a lot of the games have at least been entertaining to some degree, which is all that matters to me considering the NFL is only on for so many hours a week. I mean, right now, CBB is mainly just having meaningless non-conference mismatch-on-paper games and the NBA and NHL have virtually meaningless regular seasons due to the combination of 80+ games ending with virtually every team with anything remotely resembling a pulse making the postseason.

But most bowl games haven't been exactly meaningful under any situation. Whether you're talking 2022 or 1982, there's only so much excitement that can naturally be generated from an 8-4 B1G also-ran taking on an 8-4 SEC also-ran. You just hope for a fun game that you (and friends, assuming you have) can toss back some beers and enjoy watching. You can point at the sheer number of them, the playoffs or the opt-outs as things taking away from their meaningfulness, but it's not like the vast majority of them over the years have had much purpose other than pride.

I think that they are too spread out now too. I'm not going to watch some bad game on a random Wednesday night. If they put most of them back on new years, I will probably at least flip through the games on the holiday.

Well my kid has been on the tv 4x so far in the first half….so even though Pitt is missing 5 starters (including a top 15 pick defensive tackle)….I’m interested 😁


But I pretty much agree

I know they wouldn't have them on if people weren't watching.  But man, what awful stuff.

Clemson Holy He’ll


1st Half

Missed 3 FG

Unsuccessful fake FG attempt

QB runs out the clock on the 15 yard line instead of FG opportunity.


Down 14-3….should probably be up 15-14
