BOWLS

[1982Jacket]

Fritz looked pretty damn good against all the four and five stars on the second best team that money can buy: USC(w).

Tulane/USC - I suppose I still do not understand the targeting rule.

 

[1982Jacket]

Not targeting. But two guys laid out flat from a helmet-to-helmet collision. They need to change the ööööing rule. Someone is gonna get killed.

Apparently I don't understand targeting at all.

Touchdown! Lucky as hell they dropped the pass the play before.

 

[1982Jacket]

That is a TD unless they öööö Tulane.

 

[JJacket]

Tulane!

 

[AlabamaBuzz]

Fritz would have been a very, very good coach for us, in my opinion.

Hopefully, BK will be as well.

 

[GT65_UGA89]

Wow, that was awesome!

 

[M39Buzz]

Wow! Cotton Bowl... What a game!!

Happy for Fritz and Tulane!

Heisman Jinx... Again?

 

[Supersize that order mutt]

2 wins last year for Tulane. 12 wins this year. Effin' incredible.

Touchdown! Lucky as hell they dropped the pass the play before.

Remembered that 2012 $EC championship game and learned not to be a dwag.

Could dismissing Long as OC become a positive omen for teams?

Hell, yeah

I see this kind of thing way too often. I think their models suck.

Then again, it did take some weird things for Tulane to win. The USC returner dropping the ball out of bounds at the one. Which caused the safety. And the dropped pass right before the TD which, if caught, would have ended the game. Anyway, it was a fun watch.

Utah fans showing up in Pasadena. Their fan base is surprisingly strong for what is perceived as a commuter school.

I think there's observation bias at work here. Generally you only see these charts when something crazy happens. There's at least a thousand games a season, and the 99+ times that the team favored by 99% win we don't see the chart.
