Tomorrow brings 4 of our final 6 battles and 11 hours of Bowl Battle football!
Pending the outcome of Friday’s late-night Las Vegas Bowl, we’ll start the day with 15 or 16 (of 27) players still vying for a playoff spot.
Standings will be updated throughout the day.
You DO NOT want to see your name in the following quad chart. 7 players are at risk of being eliminated tonight.
For the six players rooting especially hard for the Red Raiders!!!!
Fight, Raiders, Fight! Fight, Raiders, Fight!
Fight for the school we love so dearly.
You’ll hit ’em high, you’ll hit ’em low.
You’ll push the ball across the goal,
Tech, Fight! Fight!
We’ll praise your name, boost you to fame.
Fight for the Scarlet and Black.
You will hit ’em, you will wreck ’em.
Hit ’em! Wreck ’em, Texas Tech!
And the Victory Bells will ring out!

The Midshipmen’s upset of the Sooners gave us our 6th casualty of 2024. More carnage is likely this evening.
Papa remains undefeated and alone in first as we pass the half-way mark of the regular season.
The first of today’s 3 battles kicks off at 11:00 when the Oklahoma Sooners take on the Navy Midshipmen in the Armed Forces Bowl.
Standings will be updated throughout the day.
If the diagram is unclear, please refer to Section C of Rules 2.0.
Bowl Battle 2.0 brings our first-ever 4-team playoff with a draft and two rounds of games. Our quarterfinals and finals will align with the new College Football Playoffs format.
Who makes the playoffs?
The top four players from the regular season make the playoffs.
The top four players (and the order of their finish) are determined by total Wins. The first tiebreaker is the total Point Differential in losses. Tiebreakers 2 (a & b) and 3 are outlined in Rules 2.0.
Ok, then what?
The four players will each select 2 of the 8 teams remaining in the actual College Football Playoffs.
The Bowl Battle Playoff Draft will be a ‘snake format’ with the draft order based on the regular season finish of each player. For example, first-place in the regular season will have the 1st and 8th (final) selections in the draft.
The draft will be held after the four playoff teams (and their order) are determined and before the first quarterfinal game. The 2024 draft is (currently) scheduled to be broadcast live on Google Meet at 4:00p CST on Tuesday, December 31st.
Who wins?
The player who selected the eventual CFP National Champion wins Bowl Battle 2024.
21 of the 22 players still alive for the Bowl Battle playoffs picked Kansas State in today’s Rate Bowl. The lone Rutgers fan, SOUM, can’t be eliminated with a loss. So, enjoy your stress-free battle.
This is, however, the calm before the storm. The upcoming schedule …
