2015 Yahoo College Bowl Pick'ems

[tinselwolverine]

Damn.

I have no idea how I misread what I looked at on the New Mexico Bowl, but I really screwed that one up.

Maybe it's because it was one of the first bowls and I rushed to get that Saturday's games at least picked.

Aw well.

Crap.

I hope everyone is able to watch the Miami Beach, Bikinis, and Blow Bowl that is being played right now!

WKU wins!!

but crap! I just looked and although i have LA Tech on my hardcopy, for some reason, it shows that I picked Ark St in this pickem

oh well, 5-1 and I lost 2 confidence points...but damn!

 

[TheVictors]

Sticky?

 

[thewolverines24]

The refs just beat IU.

 

[dubbsco]

How ridiculous is that rule? You can't review if it goes over?

 

[hungry]

Get a stop...score a td...

It appears the Arizona bowl, with Colorado State and Nevada, isn't on TV at all.

It's a shit bowl and two shit teams; still, I don't ever remember noticing that a bowl game not being televised.

 

[TheVictors]

It's on the local Fox affiliate here, KDVR 31 ....almost like they do with preseason NFL

 

[tinselwolverine]

Maybe it's being televised in the Mountain region then...the game is being played in Tuscon...it's not on any Fox network that I get...that that I would particularly would watch it...

 

[TheVictors]

Well I am in Colorado so makes sense it's on here but odd it's not national, like you said.

Can't recall a Bowl that wasn't televised.

I have watched one bowl game this year. The only reason I did that is because my dad is a lifelong IU fan.

I forget there are games being played right now.

Arizona is weird time zone wise. During DST it's the same time as it is in the Pacific time zone; during standard time it's the same time as it is in the mountain time zone.

If Fox has the rights to it - and seeing that's on being aired the Denver Fox affiliate it would seem that it would - it's surprising that it isn't on Fox Sports 1 - they're showing highlights from Colin Cowherd during that time.

Probably the only people who have any interest outside of Arizona are people who are in Bowl Pick 'ems games - but that's probably a good number of people.

All of the bowl games have been on my cable.

When I've been watching any of or any parts of any of the games, I'm more paying attention for our own pick 'ems game right here on this here board than anything else.

I haven't even paid attention to that. I barely even reorganized for confidence points. I moved a few games and then just picked the others. Bowl games suck. I really only care about Michigan's.

 

[TheVictors]

I have been watching some of the Bowls while sitting around in sweat pants, eating pizza rolls and other lazy, sit around the house vacation week food.

 

[thewolverines24]

When there were only 18 bowl games, it was a great postseason. They have over-expanded so much that it's now the worst postseason in any sport I watch.

 

[TheVictors]

I pretty much agree. So many of these Bowls are in almost completely empty stadiums.

One game the other day - maybe the pinstripe bowl or hearts of Dallas - they showed 'fans' in some living room like area with couches and all four dudes were on their phones, not watching the game and otherwise looked like they were sitting at home.

What can I tell ya?

Somebody's gotta making money.

They wouldn't have them all if it wasn't the case.
