The Grove Bowl looked like a good time. That’s about all there is to say about that.
Hot dog eating contests, tug-of-war and dunk contests were probably fun for the players and hopefully the vibe was good for any recruits in attendance.
Hey, it’s always a party in the Sip, right? That’s part of the package Lane Kiffin is selling and I’ve got absolutely no problem with it.
Some even call it genius on Kiffin’s part. Again, no argument here.
I was watching on television and switched back to the Masters after the first twenty minutes when I figured out that the 7 on 7 drills would do nothing to enlighten anyone about the 2024 Rebs.
I get it. Everybody thinks spring games are irrelevant now, thanks to the Transfer Portal, and because the games do little in the way of preparing the team for next season. And the injury risk is real with a spring game. I get all of that.
And I’m sure the Grove Games were a good time for the folks in the stadium.
But if spring games are so irrelevant and unimportant, frankly, I don’t see the point of the Grove Games – unless the players loved it and it’s good for recruiting – in which case have at it.
I’ll probably be doing something else.
