    Holiday Bowl always a fun game. Think that was the only game Fox had too, really sucks for all bettors, contest players and Nc State kids who traveled across country only to not get to play because ucla has positives

    So no defensive line? I don’t see a any problem, Ucla didn’t have one all year. Can’t stop the run, so play the game!

    SOURCES: Tonight’s Holiday Bowl between UCLA & NC State is getting canceled. The Bruins D-Line room has been decimated by Covid issues

    There are more games to be cancelled tomorrow. People got together for the holidays and now they are spreading the virus in all corners of the country.

    UCLA had 76 of the 95 players on their roster “healthy” and ready to go. They canceled because they wanted to, not because they had to.

    Ucla hanging out at Sea World. doing all kinds of stuff. Nc State was there to play a football game:

    “I thought it was fake news to be honest,” Doeren said. “Our team has done everything right... a lot went into the finish of the season, it's tough,” Doeren said.
    While Doeren described his players’ mindset as sad, mad and angered during a team meeting after the announcement, he felt that UCLA could have done a better job handling the situation.

    “Felt lied to ... We felt like UCLA probably knew something was going on with their team and didn’t tell anybody. On our side, we had know clue what they were up against that. I don’t think it was very well handled from their university.
    It would’ve been great if we had a heads up maybe two or three days ago to find a plan B.”

    The players have been paid through NILs. No one is going to play them on short notice for some bowl trinkets.

    NC wants to catch covid badly. Why in the fukk would you want to play against a team that is infected with covid?

    Should Georgia skip out on their game? Better to be safe than sorry.

    But hey, I haven't started drinking today and need some input on the next game... Oregon +7 v. Oklahoma. Both teams have players not playing due to opting out or whatever.

    That Va. Tech game was more effective than Diphenhydramine.

    The Nevada and VT tech games tells you that sometimes is better to cancel the game than have it played and one team doesn't even try.

    Tell Nevada and VT to stay home and have Western Michigan and Maryland play each other.

    Consolidate the Bowl games and have two sponsors sponsor one game for bigger payouts.

    The Cheese It Planters Peanuts Bowl

    The Autozone Quick Lane Bowl

    The playoffs have basically made the bowl games not worth playing or watching. Covid or no covid, why waste your time playing these meaningless games? They're more like preseason games now. Until they expand to 8, 16 or 32 teams, these games will be shit.

    We are at a point where we just have to play the games. If you are vaxxed, it is clear that you will not get seriously sick. If you are unvaxxed, you still may not get seriously sick but it's the choice you make. We need to stop testing and move on. This shit has gone on far too long.
