***2022 CFB Week 12 Games Thread***

We need UTSA's special teams coordinator. They just had their RB punt to mess with the defense on a 4th and 1 at their own 40 yard line and was downed at the inch line.

baylor is gonna **** this up for the big 12 huh?

 

[simply1]

No need to sit in stupid cold and windy weather to watch a blowout.

Hmm

 

[KidSilverhair]

Illinois with a 4th and short down near the goal line with a chance to tie Michigan … and the entire right side of the line jumps early.

It’s like they actually want Iowa to win the West.

Better Baylor than ISU pulling a patented Cyclone Special BCS/playoff buster next week.

 

[FriendlySpartan]

Hmm

Yeah kinda surprised with the first half score. Michigan is a second half team but still expected more then a 4 point lead.

I really don’t get why so many people here don’t want Iowa State to win next week if TCU is unbeaten

Because it would help the Big12 perception problem

No...... it would be for the $$$.

No...... it would be for the $$$.

How much money do you even get if they go to the playoff?

 

[JP4CY]

This is gonna be an old fashioned Baylor TCU shootout.

 

[JP4CY]

A LOT of open seats at Baylor.

We had many chances to have a decent season in a year with average expectations but missed. Why play spoiler just to make a bowl in Mobile, AL? Plus, I don't want Campbell and Pollard to have any doubt that offensive staff changes are needed or we will see the same crap next year.

I watch 3-4 games in every time slot every Saturday and that has been a huge thing this year even with Top 10 teams, let alone those outside the Top 25. It's fascinating for many reasons... Is NIL/realignment turning people off? Are the luxurious of home more enticing? Are costs just too great for the return? My guess is it's a little of everything.

Of course today could just be that it's a holiday week, with cold weather, with the home team being average this year.

I'd love for ISU to beat an undefeated TCU. Would be awesome

Everything you mentioned is right for poor attendance except for the realignment/NIL stuff.

A quick Kick! I have seen a couple of those in person over the years, but it has been a while.

I know Baylor has a bad history with poor attendance but you'd think TCU fans would gobble up those tickets. Closer proximity than IA-ISU, better teams, and bigger populated areas.

 

[theshadow]

Fantastic.

 

[CysRage]

Fantastic.

I just saw the score 13-3 TAMU. I can't imagine the "12th Man" is very thrilled with that score on SEC cupcake weekend.
