They can justify putting TCU in the playoffs if KState beats A DEPLETED Bama bowl team! They are counting on a fired up KState against a team that doesn’t want to be there!

We're matched with KSU because they're the second-highest ranked Big 12 team

Yes, I don't feel too good about our bowl game. Coaches in disarray and players opting out in a meaningless bowl game. Meanwhile we are gonna get someone's best game with something to prove.

This is going to be interesting matchup -
1) who wants it more .. we know which team it is
2) scrappy 3 stars playing hard and love hitting vs bunch of lazy 4-5 stars keeping their jerseys clean

Bama has all the motivation to destroy Kansas St, prove they belong in the playoff.

This Bama team doesn't follow normal motivation logic.

If 9 plays we may win. If he doesn’t, and I understand he probably won’t, we will probably get worked.

Rewatch the kstate vs tcu game and get back to me. We'll beat kstate with Milroe.

Agree, while 'playoff motivation' sounds ok, the team is gonna have a lot of coaching changes, transfers, and opt-outs as a distraction. This game only means anything to the team wanting to beat Bama. Our players are not used to playing in a game with no meaning and it will affect their game play.

Hope you are right. I have no confidence in beating a decent team with Milroe playing.

I wouldn't be shocked if the players felt deflated after not making the playoffs and opting out or not playing fully motivated. Especially when TCU loses the same way you did and doesn't get penalized for it

They did it once. We did it twice.

I'm not overly optimistic about any match up for us as we've seen this movie before. K St will be very motivated with probably no opt outs. We'll see if we're interested in tackling this game. We'll know in the 1st quarter if the interest is there. Hope the subs that are plugged in can get us another bowl win.

True but when you lose plays just as much a part as how you lose. It makes no sense for the committee to change their criteria at the end of the season compared to how they were ranking teams when the list first came out.

If you can tell me a good reason on how Bama drops 3 spots and TCU doesn't drop at all when they lost the same way, you're a smarter guy than me bro.

I agree. Milroe is as fast as anyone on their team, if he holds onto the ball we will be fine. We have 2 and 5 plus the young up and coming WR’s Prentice, Law, Bond.

Look, I do buy the "doesn't want to be there" argument when the BCS or playoff is/was ripped from you on the last game of the year, but I mean we've all known for a month that Bama was unlikely in.

Sure, they rather be in the playoff but thats not an excuse to me in this case not to play inspired football.

May I have some of what you’re smoking? Milroe is the worst QB I’ve ever seen. He had 3 turnovers against the worst team in the league and should have had at least 3 more ints iff the Aggies could catch.

He also led our offense to like 35 points in 2.5 quarters against Arkansas on the road.

Milroes last pass all he had to do was hold his onto the ball and run out of bounds or throw it away. He proceeds to throw a perfect pass directly into the hands of the other team. So infuriating that he has such a low football IQ this far along with so many reps.
