Yeah, but that small chance the 10 gives in and goes on a date and realizes what a bad ass you really are. You would go down as one of the greatest of all times!
Kidding aside, no coach/School in the history of the world would rather go to Rose Bowl over the Playoff. Simple as that.
We play in a conference that has a tie-in to the Rose Bowl. We'll have plenty of opportunities to play in that game. Making the playoffs is not as easy and provides a larger prize opportunity. It's quite obvious to me we should want the playoff. But goddamn that Rose Bowl is one hell of a consolation prize. This is a beautiful situation to be in.

They always leaf when the going gets tough.
Nah. There's a 3rd camp. @Uncle Ken is a college football traditionalist. He's like the Donald Trump of college football, wanting to make it great again by going back to the tradition of the bowl season and no clear champion.

If we win the Pac-12 CCG, the Rose Bowl means that 13 so-called experts in a room don't think we're one of the 4 best teams in the country, no more or less. It's one helluva consolation prize.

How many of you CFP zealots are buying airline travel to Atlanta?
I'm thinking that the people with minds blown are planning to be TV fans. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I want to hear who is actually going to put cash on the barrelhead, book a flight to Atlanta to enjoy the company of tens of thousands of Bama fans milling about your hotel lobby.
It's a lot easier to make the argument about the merits of the CFP over the Rose if you know you'll be watching either game from the sofa of your own home.
It's pretty damn selfish to keep 30,000 CU alums who reside in Southern California and all the parents of CU's California players from an easy trip to the Rancho Cucamonga - Anaheim bi-city area to enjoy the Rose Bowl.

so I can't advocate for playing for a natty if I don't want to buy tix to ATL? does not compute. we're all fans, regardless of how we choose to enjoy the game - where ever it shall be
Pussy level 9,999 is more accurate, I agree.
Hmmph, I will have you know I will be in my easy chair, watching the game.
pu_ssy or shi_tty. either works
Former was meant, latter isn't bad either.

I'll be perfectly honest. There are two reasons I prefer the Rose Bowl to the CFP for the Buffs this year. 1. Realistically, I think Bama beats us in the semi-final they way they did MSU last year. 2. I live 20 miles from the Rose Bowl.
We play at UCLA next year if the road trip is that important to you. I'm talking about taking a shot at a ****ing national championship, for crissakes!
...but UCLA is in Westwood, not Anaheim.
I went to Shreveport and dealt with tens of thousands of Bama fans for a ****ing Independence Bowl between two 6-6 teams, so yeah. Does this challenge post of yours mean you're also going to put "cash on the barrel head" and travel to whichever bowl game we make?
So, you're saying weak people bough out?
And the Rose Bowl dick suck post of the day goes to Skidmark! Congratulations. This was seriously the worst take on the situation so far.
Not a CFP zealot per se, but United is flying me to wherever the Buffs are playing. Atlanta or Pasadena or San Antonio or San Diego. Thanks United for having a broken plane and making me miss connections.
Yeah, but that's still a 3 hour drive. You could def fly to ATL in the same amount of time.
I will be going where ever CU goes for post season play as long as the cost of airfare is not prohibitively expensive. That means Atlanta, LA, El Paso, Boise, or anywhere in between.
and the Rose Bowl is in Pasadena
.....that one sailed.

I'm taking my father in law to the bowl game. (Mother in law passed away at 1:30 am this morning). I'd rather go to Pasedena if I can. But yeah...Atlanta is where we will go if things roll that way. I'm not getting my hopes up. Wouldn't mind beating Penn St in the Rose Bowl.
I didn't have a favorite HCMM quote before now, thanks!
I'll call it a good start

Just a thought...even if we did lose big to Bama, we would still be in the CFP's before Nebraska got in. So that's a bit of fun they can choke on FOREVER.
Well, there is that - which is definitely something to put in the pocket for future years!
Like I said before, I like the Rose Bowl (perhaps I'm a bit selfish because I want my kids to see the Rose Bowl parade). But we're going to whatever bowl game we get. If we get into the CFP, Atlanta here we come and we'll be cheering our a$$e$ off!
