Why do you guys watch gameday? Big noon kickoff is the better show.
They both aren't all that great, but Gameday is tradition and nostalgia. It's background noise.

Nobody is doing game production better than Fox's Big Noon game though.

Yeah I wouldn’t exactly say ISU has been “decimated “ by the gambling suspensions. But that’s the national narrative.
“Decimated” is literally one in ten. Out of 85 scholarship players, how many have we lost?

(I honestly don’t know the exact count. However, it it’s 8.5, I don’t need to see the half guy walking around)

Anyone on here actually at the game tailgating? Is it total chaos?

Yeah I just didn't notice any real drop off last week. Perhaps it will be a depth issue, but if anything there was an uptick in abilities.

**Maybe if ISU has a nice season there can be a hit piece about how they persevered through so much adversity and it's good to see the true meaning of college football shine through in these trying times.

Or that both teams have known since May lol

I think even sooner, they just made the adjustments or plans then.

The players and coaches should have trolled everyone by acting shocked in disbelief in any camp interviews.

Fox is broadcasting some games in 4K, including the CyHawk game today. CU/TCU last week was when I first noticed it, and CU/Nebraska today is as well.
