For those interested in the Rose Bowl this year, who are you rooting for? I'll start first. I'm rooting for the Hoosiers.
 

I've been a Buckeye forever, so I gotta go with the B1G team - Indiana, They are favored by 6.5 and the over/under is 48.5

I'll also take the Buckeyes over Miami. They are 9.5 favorites of the Canes. Over/under is about 41.5.

Just don't bet the rent money on any of them.....

Indiana is #1 ranked and undefeated this year. Alabama is the underdog :)

I know that. I was just basing it on Alabama's long storied history of having great football teams. I just looked at Vegas's current odds and you're right. I hope Indiana wins. They've never won a Rose Bowl. What a great Cinderella story that would make.
 
The Buckeyes. Once again, their field goal kicker let the team down although he isn’t the only reason they lost.
But, Fielding also let us fans down in the Michigan State game.

Indiana for me. Native Hoosier and spent two years at IU. My t-shirt is laundered and pressed and I'm ready to rumble.

Me too! Born in Muncie. Raised in Anderson. I went to IUPUI a couple of years. I usually root for Purdue but I root for any team from Indiana that's not playing Purdue at the time. Go Hoosiers! I'm getting excited!
 
1. For me it will be a tossup between HGTV and the science channel lol.

2. I also interpreted that as the Rose Bowl parade lol lol. Which means I will be watching the Rose Bowl parade on RFD-TV because not only is it commercial free, they show all of the horse entries —- all of them.

2.1 also, the high school marching band from Franklin, Tennessee is going to be in the Rose Bowl parade so that will be worth watching and rooting for.

sorry to the football fans, but I have zero interest in that

I'm sure Alabama's favored heavily but I have to go with my heart. Whoever wins, I hope it's a competitive and not lopsided game.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the Tide is not favored, but any one of these 12 teams could win it, except I think James Madison may be the weakest link.
 
I won't be watching the Rose Bowl. My beloved Mizzou Tigers lost to Virginia in the Gator Bowl. 😥

🖤💛

Being a general fan of the Midwest, if I did watch I'd likely root for Indiana.
 
Indiana Hoosiers:
Hoosier: the origin’s a mystery, but when they’re on the gridiron, you better believe they leave no doubt who’s here.

Alabama Crimson Tide:
Crimson Tide: the name’s obvious, the team’s relentless, and on New Year’s Day, they’re ready to make waves. Roll Tide !!!
 
I'm a big Bama fan, but they'll have their work cut out for them against arguably the best college team in the nation.

Indiana is favored by 7 points, and it's possible that they'll dominate Bama. But it's college ball, so you never know. Roll Tide!!

I marched in the Rose Bowl Parade in 1959 with my high school band. 9 years later the jazz/rock band I was in played a rock concert in the Rose Bowl stadium. That was a thrill.

I'm rooting for Indiana but your past history with the Rose Bowl is neat!

My high school band has marched seven times in the Rose Parade over the years. I've never been in a parade, unfortunately, but when I get elected God, you can bet your sweet bippy there's going to be one HELL of a parade...LOL.
