An FCS playoff game would actually have been serious. That was a ridiculous sham of a game broadcast and game. Felt like XFL. Embarrassing.
We should never agree to play in that game again. We look like chumps.
That broadcast and bowl were a joke

It was designed to be that way. That’s what Barstool does. This shouldn’t have been a surprise to anyone.
I took it for what it was an enjoyed the hell out it personally.

What exactly is Barstool and who is the audience they appeal to? From what I could tell it was aimed for the dumb downed of which that room is overflowing with people across the country

Won’t lead to one more WyO recruit. Won’t lead to one more WYO donor. The ten people that watched it just laughed for 3 hours. They don’t see WY any different than they did before the game. If anything, the hick Cowboy image is now further emblazoned. It hurt us.PokesArePeopleToo wrote: ↑Fri Dec 30, 2022 6:38 pm What exactly is Barstool and who is the audience they appeal to?

Okay so a platform for adults who still want to be beer chugging children and who refuse to grow up.

Like I said, anyone who was surprised by anything today clearly didn’t do any research on Barstool or the owner, Portnoy. I could never be a regular customer but in small doses I do find the lack of f-word given to be kinda entertaining, even refreshing.

Status quo.

I don’t disagree. Same could be said for any SEC broadcast with Gary Danielson too though.LawPoke wrote: ↑Fri Dec 30, 2022 6:50 pmCurt Gowdy is rolling in his grave.Subcanis wrote: ↑Fri Dec 30, 2022 6:49 pm

Now that we can agree on. In the 30 minutes since the game ended, the drunk or really juvenile Barstool crowd has evaporated. What is left is the loyal WY fan base that is mostly disgusted and embarrassed by what we were made to watch/look like. By January 2, WYO and Ohio will be the two teams that played in the joke bowl. Nothing more. Nothing less to the 20 something’s and drink 50 something’s that watched. They will talk more about the fat guy running for the tee than WYoming or Ohio.

Once every five years is enough
Honestly, I’d rather them talk about that vs the 11 yards of offense we racked up in the first 28 minutes of the second half.LawPoke wrote: ↑Fri Dec 30, 2022 6:59 pmNow that we can agree on.
