I also looked at the New Years Six for the first time, and realized our poor Cuog friends legitimately got fucked.

3 loss #11 LSU gets the Fiesta Bowl

3 loss #10 Florida gets the Peach Bowl

4 loss #15 Texas gets the Sugar Bowl


2 loss #13 Cooooogs get the shaft and the Alamo Bowl.



So yeah, just reason #4,829 and 4,830 why Larry Scott can fuck himself.

    Larry Scott dipshittery aside, they have to move it to Vegas. Almost every other conference holds their championship game within driving distance. Combine our distance from campuses with the general apathy of west coast CFB fans, and having a location like Vegas to make it a “destination” game is the only sensible option.

    Obligatory but how is he a bad media company executive or commissioner or whatever bullshit lie he tells himself each day?

    Blame Pup

    Safe to say the selection committee reads these boards

    Pup’s poor prognostications have tainted his entire PAC>SEC rant. As a result, the league has zero credibility, leaving the Coug out in the cold. All because of Pumpeii’s gross negligence.

    Shameful!

    Pays himself as a media executive despite the fact his media isn’t viewable. Go figure.

    The fact of the matter is that Washington didn't show well. Utah did.

    Wazzu did not deserve a ny6 game over any of those other teams. Wazzu's resume sucks donkey dick.

    The ccg needs to be on a Saturday. The Friday night rush hour shit is stupid. Confence usa or whatever conference that is has the Saturday afternoon spot and that is what we should take. But we won't because Larry Scott is a fucktard and he thinks he has it all figured out.

    Doing vegas would help but what it comes down to is the west coast doesn't give a shit compared to other areas. We are spread out like the acc who has had some poorly attended ccg's as well. Vegas may help, but it's still likely always going to trail the other conferences in attendance based off of geography and the short notice.

    The team whose fanbase knew they were in the game for two weeks and has never been there before traveled better than the team whose fanbase knew they were in the game for one week and has been there before?

    Weird.

    I hate the Friday night game, but when should it be played? SEC champ game starts at 4 EST. Can’t start earlier than 3pm EST. 8PM is both B1G and ACC champ games.

    I guess maybe start at 5EST and hope viewers switch to the end after the SEC CCG is over.
