As expected, the College Football Playoff ratings were WAY down. They fukked it up.

They did last year. This is why I don't understand why they changed it. Doesn't make sense.
It's because the semis were the Rose Bowl and Fiesta Bowl, the bowls that this year refused to move their bowls from NYD.

:mjlol::mjlol::mjlol: Alabama is one of the biggest college football markets b :bryan:

"how is a state that only has college football a poppin market" :heh:


Another thread where @Rigby exposes his lack of intelligence. Yes, a state with a population of under 5 million (that's less than 0.5% of the entire country's population) is a "poppin" market brehs :mjlol:

@WuDatWuDat you a wizard breh:wow:

It seems like such a simple fix just to move the games. :francis: I expect nothing less than pure stupidity from the NCAA tho.

Mathchups were also fukkin terrible this year in damn near all the major bowls.:martin: USC, UCLA, Miami, etc get yo shyt together.

interesting to see what happens next year with new year's eve falling on a saturday. thats usually NFL territory.

i dont see how the rose bowl is in the way. i mean, whats stopping them from having the 1st playoff game at noon and the 2nd one at 8?





THIS.

and whatever happened to the gator bowl? does it still exist? it lost its buzz when it went from nbc to espn2 or.............. espnu.


In years past the Rose Bowl would be played on January 2nd if the 1st fell on a Sunday so it's really gonna be fukked up next year.

Bad ratings just mean ESPN CAC executives bonuses won't be as big as last yr.
why anyone on here cares I don't know.

It hurts the fans. Also do you know about advertisement dollars or business at all?

The ratings dropped a QUARTER in one year because of the date they had to move it to which it will be for 8 of the next 11 years

Espn is in panic mode now. They didn't pay a shyt ton for playoff games to get a 9

Was that the first time the Orange Bowl been played in the Afternoon since the stone age?

I don't think the Orange Bowl has ever been played in the afternoon, when the Playoff teams were announced, I thought for sure that the Orange Bowl was going to be the late game. Some of these bowl times have been really weird this season.
