I’m not really watching neither. Championship Games tend to be for the most part, anti-climactic.

Since you aren’t the only one pulling for Georgia, does that mean that Bama will win?

FL Governor Rick Scott issued a proclamation of UCF = National Champs inside FL.

It’s sort of tongue in cheek, I suppose...

+1

And let’s put this game on the most hated sports channel, due to their unwanted political crap.

They were more than likely kneeling to pray.

Heck, just being the best team in the State of Florida is quite an accomplishment.

I agree, it’s pretty-anticlimactic for many CFB fans. I watch, in part, because it’s the last game of the season. I’m not very big into pro football, so this is the beginning of the off-season for me. I go into hibernation until the Fall.

I’m more into Premier League and Champions League soccer anyway right now.

.. because it’s the last game of the season

That's it, in a nutshell.

I just don't understand why the NCAA would showcase their best football game on a network where

...the screen has 60% showing the game and 40% two split screens each with two commentators. I am glad that I wasn't planning to watch the game because I find this distracting visual unwatchable.

I also planned to watch the pregame ceremonies from my DVR but the pregame was from 7:30 to 8 and the game was 8:15 to whenever. I have no idea what 8:00 to 8:15 was called but,whatever it was, I did not record it. This is when President Trump came out and the National Anthem was sung. I am thankful for FreeRepublic and Youtube for showing it already.

Terrible game so far. Both good defenses but Alabama with Hurts at qb has no offense. Satan should bench him for the 2nd stringer, who’s a better qb. Either that or Georgia is winning the game.

Who do I want to win? Georgia.

Who is going to win? Alabama.

Alabama should not be here; they Could not win their conference.

I used to be big into MLS. It’s gotten hard to watch again. I go through cycles. Sometimes it’s easier to take in a nice view. I seem to do more of that during the off season the last few years.

Through a quirk, I actually don’t get ESPN with my cable, but my wife, has the Spanish-package, so the only way I can watch the game is with the Spanish commentators.

And you know what? I think I kind of prefer them.

President Trump marched onto the field with the honor guard for the playing of the National Anthem!

The thuggery seems extensive with both of these schools. Do any of them actually graduate?

No, MLS isn’t very good. Although I must say, I did get the chance to watch an Atlanta United game, at Bobby Dodd before they moved to the new stadium, had a great time, probably the best atmosphere of any MLS team, certainly better than FC Dallas.

I have to agree with pretty much everything you said in your post.

That must have been something, to watch soccer at Bobby Dodd. How I love that place! So many great memories there!

I don’t know which place (city) has the best atmosphere anymore. I have my own favorite team, but it’s sentimental now. The whole league has changed since I paid attention.
