Bowl Games Thread 2025

So… Is Dabo Sweeney pretty much a lame duck coach going into next season? I think anything less than an ACC champ game appearance and/or a playoff appearance I think he’s toast.

He's got the jaded old man anger and stubborn vibe of Mike Gundy. He has a longer leash based on his success there but needs to get things turned around.

The ACC is for the taking if Clemson gets their shit together.

Hopefully Bear Bachmeier gets caught pounding some coffee after the bowl game and has to portal to Lincoln

Good news you can drink coffee and get drunk, but you’re gonna have to leave a couple wives in Utah…

Per wikipedia, Bachmeier is Catholic which was absolutely not on my bingo card, but coffee is still an honor code violation

Longer leash, but higher expectations. And considering they haven’t sniffed the playoffs in about 4-5 years, that leash is getting a lot shorter I’m thinking.

Edit: they made the playoffs last year lol. Got their asses kicked but they made the field.

Catholic… interesting. Welp, I guess the coffee and booze angle is out, he’s probably been a full blown alcoholic since 15. 🫤

He has actually hired good coordinators on paper. He got lucky hitting on the qbs and having Venerables I think. I know he hasn’t wanted to play the NIL game, but it was still a major let down this season coming off their season last year.

I’m going to assume GT’s offensive success was all thanks to Geep’s coaching prowess.

Might be that the Big 12 sucks.

The refs are terrible with PI in this game. Didn't call clear PI's and then call it when they shouldn't have.

It didn’t matter the last time.

That QB just throws to anyone.

Guy is an idiot for running that out of the end zone.

Teams that transferred to sec have done well so maybe sec is vastly overrated

Probably not great logic considering the gap between the B1G/SEC and Big 12/ACC got way bigger since those teams left.

Meh. OU and TX would have struggled to win the big 12 this year, besides loser teams in conferences brag about what conf is better. Teams like ttech and Miami just go out and win. Let’s hope NU can show up and get to playoff instead of living vicariously through our pedo conference members
