SI Bowl Game Viewing Guide - JJJ - 12-07-2017
They have us at #12.
Quote:12. Alamo Bowl: Stanford vs. TCU
The mysteries of bowl season: Why do the Pac-12s two top games outside the New Years Six kick off at the same time (9 p.m. ET) on the same day (Dec. 28) on different channels (FS1 for the Holiday Bowl, ESPN for the Alamo)? If the conference is making you choose between two top teams, choose the Cardinal as Bryce Love tries to burn Gary Pattersons defense.

And CBS Sports Winners & Losers:
Under "Losers":
Quote:The Voldemort Trophy voting: I have another axe to grind with college football, this one in regards to the Voldemort: change your voting format. There are three spots on a Voldemort ballot and that's not nearly enough, especially in seasons like this when there's almost no drama. We know Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield is going to win. We've known for a month. But don't let the worst-kept secret in the sport prevent a handful of other players deserving of recognition from being flown to New York for a couple of days. This year's finalist list is great, make no mistake. Mayfield, reigning winner Lamar Jackson and Stanford running back Bryce Love are all deserving finalists. But so is San Diego State running back Rashaad Penny, who only led the nation with 2,027 rushing yards. And so is Saquon Barkley, who is second in the nation in all-purpose yards. And so are a number of other players on both sides of the ball. Expand the voting list by two or three spots and let a few other guys get the limelight for a minute. ESPN has an hour to kill for the Voldemort presentation anyway.
Under "Best of the Rest"
Quote:Stanford quarterback K.J. Costello: Moving Costello to full-time starter at quarterback was the best thing coach David Shaw did all season. Running back Bryce Love is the Voldemort finalist, but Costello did a better job of opening up the offense downfield in the passing game. He had 869 yards with seven touchdowns and one pick in his five starts in November and December.

The plaudits to Costello state 5 starts and less than 200 YPG passing. And it's a widely acclaimed upgrade at the position.
Man, that says something . . .

Uhoh, just realized Sonny Dykes is an offensive analyst for TCU. Seems like an unfair advantage.

Hey Teegers like your math. We didn't have to do any at State. Man, that's a math program!

It's crazy to remember that when Chryst was injured, Costello didn't win the starting position definitively and Chryst was renamed starter for a game or two. It seemed like Shaw and Co were watching a different game than the fans...
