Sad for those that hate the bowls. I'm enjoying as usual. The 2nd stringers are playing hard and it must
be a thrill for their families. Still full ride DI talent and a few fake punts or quadruple reverses to boot.
That said, the Pop Tart Edible Mascot, greatest thing I ever saw.

It's abundantly clear FSU did not belong anywhere near the playoffs this year.

FSU is playing their 3rd string against UGA starters. This isn’t a reflection of the “real” FSU
Not a FSU fan AT ALL (actually can’t stand them) but to judge their team on this game is a joke
Unfortunately bowls have been ruined in my opinion. All but the playoffs are a joke

And Georgia doesn't have their share of missing starters? I hate Georgia but quickly got tired of FSU's bellyaching of not making the playoffs. They threaten to leave the ACC due to it being a perceived weak P5 conference in football. They play their toughest opponent this season and the score is 56-3 and rising.

I would also add that along with FSU being in the running for the most annoying team this year, JMU and Colorado (by virtue of the media's fawning of Coach Prime) must also be considered.

FSU is missing 14 starters
UGA is missing 2 starters

Again. Not worth an argument bc I can’t stand FSU (really not trying to start a back and forth)
APP is 1-0. Honestly all I care about

They are missing more than 2 starters. I know 6 off the top of my head. Bowers, Mims, JDJ, Rara, Humphrey, Mondon. They’re the better team.

Totally agree they’re the better team. Just don’t think it would be this out of wack. Again, don’t really care. Just hate the Orange bowl is a blowout. It’s one of those that used to be a big deal

12 teams will help, it’s much needed.

I can’t wait for that. I think it will help curb this “opt out” BS in the big games. I just miss competitive bowl games

Watched 3 quarters of the Wyoming game. What a horrible announcing crew. Turned the sound off just before the half.

It’s pathletic what the FSU players did to their team by not playing in this game

It was very selfish and shows they don’t have any loyalty to their school. The players quit on their team and school.

60 point loss in a bowl is worst ever

Worst loss by a top 5 AP team ever since 1936.

The standard is Alabama - not only the best coach but the program - last year they lost 2 games, both on the last play of the game - Didn't make the playoffs --- something that doesn't happen often - BUT even under those circumstances - Bryce Young #1 pick and Will Anderson #3 pick overall both played in the "meaningless" bowl game.

They called the game like a bunch of fans would call a game. Not real broadcasters. Called the game like they were sitting on barstools. May be drinking as well.

I think it is odd that my two teams App and Wyo would both play the two teams in the MAC Championship game this year. Sometimes I wonder if this real or some type of simulation game I have wondered into...
