CFP Red Raiders vs Ducks

[Big Orange Captain]

I’m going with Oregon in this one. Texas Tech hasn’t beat anyone good all season playing in that weak Big 12.

I haven’t watched Texas Tech this year but thought they played well in the conference championship game. I expect this to be a good competitive game.

 

[Boston Vol]

West coast team playing a noon eastern time kickoff may be something to watch.

I agree, if only because I’m not confident in what TT really is. I just haven’t seen them play much, as you say, especially not against teams with top talent. Oregon does have top talent and I’m assuming they are deeper.

I think Oregon wins the 4th quarter and the game. I hope it’s a great game though!

Odds are that Oregon as the team who did not have a bye wins this one. Not because they may be better but because the bye teams are 0-5.

 

[SpookyAction]

We are finally seeing some of the new titans of CFB clash. Both of these teams have ample cash support. ample.

 

[Zues1]

Let's go Tech

 

[BreatheUT]

Texas Tech wins being more physical and with a pass rush.

 

[Lawrence Wright]

More than a few empty seats in the end zone upper deck.

 

[theroyz71]

I wish we used our tight ends like Oregon is doing.

 

[theroyz71]

I'm pulling for Oregon because they are a perennial power that has never won a natty.

That’s why these games need to be played on campus

Phil Knight has been trying to buy a championship for 15 years.

 

[BreatheUT]

More than a few empty seats in the end zone upper deck.

Somewhat surprising but consider many fans are hedging wins and longterm outlook to attend the NEXT game.

 

[BreatheUT]

Anyone else shack their head when they see a kicker on another team hit a 50 yard FG like they practice.

What school isn't?

 

[Boca Vol]

I’m watching the Skycast version and it’s a very stale atmosphere.

I get Oregon fans not traveling three time zones for a quarterfinal game, but I expected TTech fans to take over that stadium.

This is a Haley’s Comet event for their fan base, and next week isn’t guaranteed.

Likely the logistics certainly contribute here. It’s just so much fun to throw a little party and watch on an amazing big screen nowadays. Also cheaper and arguably much better game snacks!

Noon kickoff in South Florida following NYE.

Half that town is still asleep recovering from last night.

 

[stolitonic]

Have relatives in the TTU AD so go Red Raiders zi guess?

 

[Boca Vol]

Yeah. And the stadium is nowhere near the “action” of that area. But you’ve got to schedule a noon game to get all 3 in their own slot.

What school isn't?

Not like big money Knight

 

[BreatheUT]

Yes, Tech stopped those clowns coaching like Florida's ex coach.
