NCAA Etihad to Host PAC 12 Bowl Game

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Wazzu v Hawaii

Passing galore.

Wtf are you babbling on about now

USC and UCLA are from the same conference.
It's impossible for there to be 2 teams in the same conference in the same bowl game*

*Well, unless they matchup in the playoff, and that's not the game coming to Melbourne, so it's still physically impossible for your prediction to occur.

lol. Could set a record for longest ever game (gametime)!

Could have 250 plays! (Including 200 passes and knowing the 2 teams, 100 incompletions )

Sorry I didn't read bowl game part. Assumed it would be a regular season game.

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Could be good. Just wait to you see the ticket prices.

 

[EagleOz]

Would be awesome to have a BigFooty tailgate party before the game. Also I wonder if we can get a whole section just for bigfooty so we all sit together.

 

[Rack Watts]

Wow! Super keen, coming up from Tassie at that time of the year is so expensive though!!!

But i dont think it will be a sell out because the less informed fan will think "ohh its just college football not NFL so i dont care"

Well the NFL is miles better and its players aren't screwed over.

What do you mean?
95% of the ignoramus' just like offence. That's all 95% of college football is. If you love offence, you'll love the bowl.

 

[Bomberboyokay]

NFL players are better and get paid.

The college game is better to watch, and there are more exciting games a month in college than the entire NFL season. without college there would not be any No huddle/tempo or Spread or Pistol offences.

I would watch College weekend over a NFL weekend. and then there is the traditions and tailgating. In the NFL the entire stadium isnt wearing the one color or the entire sections dedicated to the same stuff. Check out some pics of stands when big schools having "Blackouts" or "Whiteouts". And in College Blackout isnt a bad word for ticket sales like in the NFL

You obviously don't know much about the SEC

 

[aussiedude]

You obviously don't know much about the SEC

Or ACC, Big12 or some Pac-12 teams

 

[Dirty Bird]

Or ACC, Big12 or some Pac-12 teams

Yeah, but other than North Carolina, no one even tries to match the SEC.

 

[aussiedude]

Yeah, but other than North Carolina, no one even tries to match the SEC.

The Ohio State have tried, remember the Tattoo stuff and the cars for Pryor? and now Myer is there so it could be worse.

And USC always try to buy everyone, and the whispers around UCLA and Oregon.

College football is like Arena football, where defence is just an afterthought....something to lie on when you're having a root ...I think is the old term

When you have 240+/- games a month compared to 64 odds are you'll get a few more exciting games. There's also a lot more blowouts *Yawn* if its not my team inflicting it!

If college fb was a superior game, the rookies wouldn't struggle so much at NFL level.

Its american football-lite.

NFL > Legends League > College > Arena

You know that, i know that and guys on BF know that.

But do the averaged casual football fans know that?

 

[Dirty Bird]

fair call.

[LicoriceAllsorts]

It wont be a done deal till early next year when the NCAA commission it and sign off on the sponsors. Everything else can be worked out before then. but the game wont happen for more than 18 months.

But i dont think it will be a sell out because the less informed fan will think "ohh its just college football not NFL so i dont care"

The less informed fans don't know the difference between the NFL and NCAA

Person: "Oh yeah, I love the NFL!"
Me: "What team do you follow?"
Person: "The Flordida Gators!"
Me: "Riiigghtttttt"

(This has actually happened before, and I had to disappoint them by informing them of the truth)

 

[quotemokc]

I would definitely fly over from Perth for this.

 

[Exe Gesis]

Don't kid yourselves. If I was available to be there (I wont), you'd all be there for the main attraction/sideshow -- me. The football would get quickly dull with me in the middle of the BF get-together.

How do you know you won't be available if we don't know the dates yet??
