Ole Miss needs to throw more money at recruits. Let's go Frogs!

Drop the "Chick-Fil-A" - we don't want to sponsor the sponsor. Does anybody care? After yesterday all these bowl games are irrelevant tributes to the past.

Great start for TCU

Trick plays already, nice TD for thr Frogs

Is it just me or is the new ESPN score ticker really oddly placed? Maybe I'm just not used to it...
December 31st, 2014 at 12:40 PM ^
And I'm not a fan of the corporate sponsorship either. Although, TCU does seem like a good fit for this particular sponsor.
Going to a bowl game used to mean something.
/my lawn, off of it

My list of things to gripe about would have sponsors of bowl games fairly low on that list. While some of the games take all the air out of your lungs to pronounce, I just don't get upset about it as much as some. I choose to watch the games and I know they're going to be sponsored.
Now if you could stop people from calling me randomly to sell me useless shit, now that would be fabulous.
December 31st, 2014 at 1:08 PM ^
I'm firmly in the meh camp with you. I guess the main thing I don't like is that a 6-6 team can play in a bowl game now. That's a crap record. If there were fewer bowls bad teams wouldn't be getting rewarded for beating 6 even worse teams.
Got rid of the land line, no more marketing/politics calls.

We don't use sponsor names if we can help it at all. It's "Peach Bowl" please.

That would mean that the committee, as well as the talking asses at ESPN, have tremendously exaggerated the ominpotence of the Ess Eee Cee.

December 31st, 2014 at 12:58 PM ^
The scariest part here is that TCU returns their whole offense next year...
December 31st, 2014 at 12:58 PM ^
I hope both TCU and Baylor roll their opponents.

I think the committee wanted TCU in the whole time but just could not validate it since they lost in that fluke to Baylor...
If both Baylor and TCU romp their opponents and OSU loses to Bama, I'm gonna laugh.
The playoff would be just as bad as the BCS

This is why I don't understand why Bama is considered the number one team. They lost to this mediocre Ole Miss team. They barely squeaked one out against an LSU team that lost to ND. They beat Arkansas by one point. It's just fucked up how much bias there is towards the SEC West.
December 31st, 2014 at 1:28 PM ^
Gotta remember that Treadwill and Nkemdiche are both injured for Ole Miss. But yes, I agree.
December 31st, 2014 at 1:32 PM ^
December 31st, 2014 at 1:35 PM ^
I think there's two of them. They're brothers.
December 31st, 2014 at 1:36 PM ^
December 31st, 2014 at 1:37 PM ^
Maybe in two years there will be that much bias toward the Big Ten East.

I have to admit that I may have been grossly wrong about Bret Bielema. I really thought he was riding the coattails of Barry Alvarez. I thought he would suck at Arkansas until he got fired. At this point, though, it looks like he has Arkansas ready to do some serious damage next year.
