2024 bowl projections thread

[HRE Otto IV]

No it won't. Some kids come after the school year ends. Spring game is not a complete team.

Outside of Freshman it is. Unless it changed (which it always seems to be) the portal does not open after Spring anymore.

Nothing personal towards you but I’ve heard this idea proposed a few times in the past on here and I just think it’s the worst idea ever. You completely eliminate all the psychological connection between the regular season and the bowl game and it becomes emotionally meaningless. Bowl games are meant to be played around the holidays a few weeks after the season.

Injury risks would be way too high also. Being in shape and being conditioned and in game contact shape are different.

 

[AlaskaSUfan]

Nobody does mayo right.

Also, that's racist.

Maybe.

And possibly a tad perverse

 

[All4SU]

The bowl game is what it always is: (a) someplace warm, (b) quality opponent, and (c) properly distanced from Christmas (after) so as to not interfere with family activities.

Or better yet, on TV during family activities so as to take your attention away from family activities.

Last December we did not have Kyle. We have the #1 recruiting team in the nation. Do you not think we will go out and purchase another QB in the portal?

Don't think we go for someone of McCords level. Schedule might scare guys off. Another dual thread to compete with Williams and Johnson Jr IMO.

Meeks Pena JRS Villari short passing game with lots of YAC and throws to the RBs more.

No, unless they are an absolute stud.

But don’t see it happening

I thought Meeks was done?

We got Zeed and Tremble presumably though too

Incorrect.

Turn in your wing card if you dip in ranch.

I do not. That’s why I said capt was incorrect. Miracle whip and blue cheese here.

Can't argue but the last 20 years...my standards dropped to any day, any where

Likewise. Was raised on Miracle Whip.

Sorry

I was raised on Miracle Whip too, but now I use a mayo from Whole Foods (don't even know the name off the top of my head) that I like more than any of the big brands. And it doesn't have all the preservatives.

 

[Idiocuse22&]

The best Mayo is the one I make at home with my own blender.

That is the only good thing you have said about mayo...I hate jarred mayo but I would attempt to try your homemade mayo on a BLT.
And thats only bc apparently I made you angry somewhere within this thread and thats not my goal here.

HA, no worries, you didn't anger me at all... I just don't like Miracle Whip (FYI I grew up on it too). All in good fun/jest and doing the same. We all like to have tangents. I'll have some words and some jest with some MW and RANCH Wing dippers at some point in the next 24 hours which I read from above... but honestly some is about taste buds too... I'm a food guy... So aioli/mayo/miracle whoop etc. Huge opinion on it.

FYI ::: DUKES/HELLMANS... Same brand different mayo recipe... Dukes uses more egg yolks (no whites) AKA thicker. I said next side topic will probably be cheese in a one liner... but I then I saw it with wing dipping and blue cheese and a nasty ranch reference did come up. EWE RANCH, but both are acceptable for me... Anyhow not to add to the real topic without Philadelphia Cream Cheese, The Kraft contagion of yucky sugar/preservative prone Miracle Whip, and the Duke/Hellman's perfection taste preferences and the ugly concoction of blue cheese/ranch mixed wing dip contagions of nastiness that usually is just a mix in one of the other above or even usually worse third party mayo's... Or another AIOLI (garlic/oil FYI) ... See how I did that?

BOWL TOPIC FOCUS:

Anyhow. It looks like our bowl games are all over the place, and this week is what is going to make the offer between one or the other. It looks like all the other news medias have the same issue. They don't know what to do, as the teams we lost to in the ACC we have also beaten those others. At the same time the same peeps in the SEC are the same. It just can't be Finway or Pinstripe... They like to throw crap at crap for bowls and it about time we had a Miama vs SYR on our last game for a bowl game, even if we don't play our next year or current players for it just to have that great game we want to go to, and want to attend as fans and because it matters to have just that one great game.

Sorry

As a fellow North Country native, I am outraged! Miracle Whip and Glaziers forever! (Glaziers - if you know, you know.)

Glaziers….Yes!

 

[Idiocuse22&]

I dont think we go to the Pînstripe or the Fenway even if we lose out. Unless Coach wants them for whatever reason.
Didnt Wildhack manuever us a nice weather bowl just last year that didnt even have an ACC affiliation? And we just barely squeeked into bowl eligibility, barely!
As much as I hate Mayo and moreso miracle whip, Im feeling we are Mayo bound this year at the worst. We are not losing to Uconn. Knocks on wood.

A Glazier dog was the first dog that i got that true snap and a juice explosion and that red and burnt charcoal color! Who does hoffmanns think they are? not bad...
More appropriately whatdefuq are most hot dog companies thinking?...trash

Cuse to Gator, Holiday, Sun or Mayo...

Yes, Wildhack has some really great connections.

I think we will be able to essentially pick our bowl.

I really would love the Mayo bowl as the convenience would be awesome.

But I’ll take a Florida bowl too.


Really hoping to avoid the west coast, have to imagine the school is as well with two west coast trips already in the books.

Obviously with these bowls you never know

According to some play-by-play guys, we have had three west coast trips.

Glazier Meat Packing company, Potsdam, New York. They make hot dogs in red casings that have a hint of garlic and other spices. They have an awesome snap when cooked, and the casing cooks up a bit and has a smoky flavor. They are great on the grill. Eat them with chopped raw onion and a bit of mustard. My gawd, they're good. I used to come home from the bars and crush them, sometimes raw. The good old days.
