| GAME THREAD 🏆CFB- The Playoffs: Quarterfinals: The playoffs resume Thursday night

[24and7]

Not much you can do when the other team is yanking your drawers down and spanking that ass.

That cold weather was a huge force multiplier in the end..

 

[Secondand26]

His second chin is much larger.

So are the 3rd,4th, 5th & 6th!

And while I did think OSU would win tonight, I didn't expect that ass kicking...

It was a thing of beauty. The only thing that would have made it better would have been Bama doing it instead of OSU.

We'll get the opportunity next season. Let's make it happen.

Tennessee buddy was telling me yesterday, or reminding me as he put it, that Tennessee got destroyed in their 1997 bowl game (Nebraska while Manning was at the helm for UT) and then opened the next season against Syracuse in a dome stadium. Tee Martin led them to their NC that year. Evidently they play Syracuse to open the 2025 season in Atlanta. They are already finding a way to think 2025 is their year!

Its hard from year to year with portal. The loose a lot.
They are probably a 7-8 win team

Probably be a battle of who runs outta breath first.

Getting tired thinking aboutit. @PurlJam No mas. U win

IMO, this has been a disastrous post season of college football. Even the low tier bowls level of play has sucked due to mass transfers. I believe when they ring up those cash registers at seasons end, there's gonna be some brick shitting.

 

[64Tide]

The game is ruined, the thrill is gone.

 

[alabama mike]

The game is ruined, the thrill is gone.

Truth!

 

[50+yeartidefan]

Truth!

Its different. For sure. Need some stability

The 2 games in round one that aired in conflict with NFL games had half the viewership of the NFL games. No surprise there! The other 2 games had twice the viewership of those two with the low numbers which is a little suspicious, especially with one being on a Friday night. But it was Notre Dame! And OSU vs Tennessee… and those were the 2 aired on ESPN/ABC. That’s why I’m suspicious that they got twice the viewers of the 2 on TNT.

That's interesting. . . . . did the first straw create the first crack with the ratings to start the first ever 12 team playoff?

It certainly lost its luster some.
