12/30 Bowl Game Discussion Thread (Two SEC games and three B1G)

Can't wait for the Duke's Mayo Bowl. Cheering for SC. Go Cocks!
December 30th, 2021 at 11:12 AM ^
So you're a big fan of the Cocks?
December 30th, 2021 at 11:23 AM ^
Go Heels
December 30th, 2021 at 11:56 AM ^
I've never had Duke's Mayo. Is it any good?
December 30th, 2021 at 1:24 PM ^
Yes. I'll alternate between Duke's and Hellman's flavors with olive oil mixed in. Stop buying Miracle Whip. Just stop.
December 30th, 2021 at 1:56 PM ^
What do you use that mix on?
Yeah, I'm not a Miracle Whip person. If I could buy it in a bottle/cannister, I'd get that Popeye's spicy chicken sandwich sauce. I believe that is a mayonnaise. They won't give it to me in side containers anymore, even for the chicken nuggets. I even tried ordering a spicy chicken sandwich minus the bun, pickles, and chicken to get the sauce...to no avail.
December 30th, 2021 at 2:04 PM ^
Everything... It's straight up replaced basic mayo for me. It's a (slightly) healthier version of mayo, but tastes just the same.
For the Popeye's sauce just google it ('popeyes spicy sauce recipe') - you'll get a bunch of copycat recipes, and they'll all be close enough to real! Google knows everything...
December 30th, 2021 at 11:58 AM ^
This game doesn't look like it's going to be much of a game. SCar looks in-sync and focused. UNC looks tentative and unprepared.
December 30th, 2021 at 10:37 AM ^
It's the most wonderful week of the year!
December 30th, 2021 at 10:41 AM ^
I agree completely. But honestly, it's even better this year. Something about making the College Playoffs has me watching EVERY bowl game this time around. I usually just pick and choose.
December 30th, 2021 at 10:38 AM ^
I'm in Texas, so the times probably reflect Central Time.
I'm hoping for the obvious:
North Carolina over SCar
Purdue over Tennessee
Pitt over MSU (rather they get the B1G loss out of the way)
Wisconsin over Arizona State
December 30th, 2021 at 10:48 AM ^
All of the above with an extra helping of MSU getting blown out by a backup QB.
December 30th, 2021 at 11:09 AM ^
Hated to do it, but with Pitt's QB out, had to pick MSU in that one. Won't be upset if I'm wrong though!
December 30th, 2021 at 12:29 PM ^
This will be an interesting match up.
MSUs D Backfield is weak. Pickett is good but was he partially a product of a really good offensive game plan? The OC installed a pass heavy offense but he just resigned and went to Nebraska. The back up QB supposedly has some ability.
December 30th, 2021 at 4:24 PM ^
If there's one team some of us old skool M fans really want to see pulped, it's the Fat Fulmers. C'mon, Purdue--play harder!
EDIT: My god, if their current coach isn't a chip off of the old block.
December 30th, 2021 at 10:42 AM ^
Hopefully the SEC stays losing!
December 30th, 2021 at 10:45 AM ^
Would you pay $13 to see Pitt curb stomp MSU?
December 30th, 2021 at 10:50 AM ^
Ehhh...I see where you're coming from, but I think a sparty win will make UM's presence in the CFP sting even more. They've been puffing their chests about beating us and after their loss to osu and how our regular season ended, I think it bothers them. It bothers them that we don't care anymore that we lost against them.
December 30th, 2021 at 10:56 AM ^
I think you misread his question. Tickets to the game are only $13. And I would pay that, but not go to the game.
But losing a QB >>> RB -- I also think MSU will unfortunately win.
December 30th, 2021 at 11:00 AM ^
Yeah, good catch. I'm a moron.
December 30th, 2021 at 11:07 AM ^
I hope MSU score zero points and lose 55-0. It doesn't matter. Alabama lost also and they are #1.
December 30th, 2021 at 11:15 AM ^
$13 = yes.
I'm down with pushing the narrative that the Big Ten is better this year...to get there, need as many wins as possible by every Big Ten team.
Then the upshot is that recruits will look at the Big Ten more, and obviously Michigan as the major beneficiary.
Because let's be honest...Michigan has to recruit nationally, not like the state of Florida or Texas with 4 star recruits everywhere.
All of the national exposure and hearing all sports talk shows (even ESPN eating crow) talking about major Big Ten dominance is good.
December 30th, 2021 at 12:00 PM ^
Wow! I snagged 12.5 an hour ago and bet on South Carolina. So far, so good
December 30th, 2021 at 12:04 PM ^
Baby Golic is so annoying. More so when adding in Mayo comments at the Duke Mayo Bowl.
December 30th, 2021 at 12:07 PM ^
UNC/USC should get a huge crowd due to limited travel distance to their game. Great match up by the committee
There are a lot of Sparty fans in the ATL area - I see Sparty flags and license plates everywhere I go. Hope they show up and give their team some support.
Fun fact: my neighbor pitched for Sparty and almost went to Michigan. There was one spot left and Michigan took Jim Abbott over him.

No rooting interest in the battle for Carolina. And I’ll root for all the big ten teams except in the peach
December 30th, 2021 at 12:29 PM ^
Happy my Sooners won last night. Stoops did well in him cameo role as a head coach.
Go Pitt!!!
December 30th, 2021 at 12:30 PM ^
Glad I didn't turn this game off...it's starting to get interesting. Go UNC!!!
(or more honestly, to hell with the SEC)
Score currently 18-7 in favor of SCar, but UNC with the ball after a strong defensive series.
December 30th, 2021 at 12:50 PM ^
Using this Carolina game to strategize my DVR-ing for tomorrow.
ESPN
8 to 11 Gameday
2:30 to 3:30 Pregame
3:30 to 7:10 Cotton Bowl but not going to waste space on HD for this one
7:10 to 7:30 Pregame
7:30 to 12:20 Orange Bowl main broadcast with extra hour
ESPN News
7:30 to 11:20 Orange Bowl All 22- wide angle camera
ESPN2
7:30 to 11:20 Orange Bowl Command Center-main camera, Skycam, two coach cams
ESPNU
7:30 to 11:20 Orange Bowl Skycast - limited to 3 simultaneous so skipping this one
SEC teams get their radio simulcasts on real channels; have to go to ESPN online stream for Michigan. And the stream will also have the marching band halftimes.
BTN
7:30 to 8:30 Penn State game in 60
11 to noon The Game in 60, also 4:30
noon to 2 Women’s basketball vs OSU
5:30 to 7:30 Orange Bowl preview B1G Live
they are running other “In 60” episodes but not sure which games they are
likely will have live analysis after the game
Freed up 40 hours of HD space so I should be all set.
December 30th, 2021 at 12:51 PM ^
That was a nice catch by the UNC player
December 30th, 2021 at 1:21 PM ^
For sure! Play was defended well with the sideline, but WR just went after the ball and demonstrated body control to get a foot in. Wish it would have led to a TD instead of a FG.
December 30th, 2021 at 12:58 PM ^
Injured cock. They are stroking out the cramp to get him back erect. That's a paraphrase, but damn that's some funny shit.
Great catch by UNC...good drive...then mentally collapse. 25-13 SCar, and they receive the ball to start the 3rd Quarter.
December 30th, 2021 at 1:17 PM ^
Don't most physicians suggest rest for an injured cock? Stroking or rubbing prematurely could cause painful erection of the cock. Even if said cock is a game cock.
December 30th, 2021 at 1:19 PM ^
Thankfully, I've never been in the position to need to ask a physician...so I have no clue!
December 30th, 2021 at 2:33 PM ^
My cock still crows every fucking morning. Life is good...
December 30th, 2021 at 2:52 PM ^
As a holiday inn physician, I recommend working it until the puss comes out and the swelling goes down.
December 30th, 2021 at 1:22 PM ^
Well, this sucks. ESPN's front page clipped the scoreboard section, so it looks like Pitt is playing Michigan. They really should be spelled out 'MSU'...
December 30th, 2021 at 1:47 PM ^
Or MICH ST.
December 30th, 2021 at 1:26 PM ^
UNC is letting us all down
December 30th, 2021 at 1:59 PM ^
They've been awful in critical situations. There have been so many SCar drives sustained by UNC suckitude. Running out of time, hoping they find a way to pull this off.
December 30th, 2021 at 2:03 PM ^
Wasted timeout for that piece of shit effort on 3rd.
December 30th, 2021 at 2:28 PM ^
That punt by Mack Brown makes it seem like he really doesn't want a chance at the mayo bath.
December 30th, 2021 at 2:31 PM ^
Dumping a giant tub of mayonnaise all over someone seems like something you'd force the loser of a game to endure. The thought of it is making me ill.
December 30th, 2021 at 2:38 PM ^
Ugh, watching them dunk donuts in mayonnaise and shovel that shit into their face holes...
December 30th, 2021 at 3:01 PM ^
I don't think you could create a less compelling and coherent talking head than Joey Galloway. Just...he's just all smugness with none of the analytical skill to even come close to backing it up.
December 30th, 2021 at 4:15 PM ^
So many weapons on this team, they don't even know who to cover on replays!
December 30th, 2021 at 3:09 PM ^
The Galloway crew just did a featurette before the Music City Bowl on HH & BC. They promptly showed a clip of HH, then...... an AJ end around TD. Derp.
December 30th, 2021 at 3:11 PM ^
It's time to Boiler Up!
Maybe a win will eventually pay dividends and they will invest in providing road teams with basic locker room necessities. Have they even made them safer yet?
...The North remembers!!!
(BTW, can't believe they are reviewing this play...so obvious the ball was all over the ground)
December 30th, 2021 at 3:13 PM ^
Harbs is awesome.
Interviewer "Is Dax Hill in Miami right now?"
Harbs "He might be"
