I'll differ there. Now, I don't think it affects every player. But I played ball at one point and had to travel. As someone who is extremely picky about his bedding, I definitely was below 100% the next day when I slept in a hotel. Especially when you share rooms and the other guy's a snorer. And many teams share beds, rather than just rooms. That could fuck with a lot of peoples' sleep. Now, I was not a star by any means, so it didn't matter how I felt. And many people can sleep in any circumstances. But think if the running back or QB wasn't 100% because of that. Or if 5 starters were like me were. I could absolutely see that being a factor in a neutral site/away game. That's why there's only a handful of hotels that are able to handle NFL teams each week, and everything has to be just right. The team's managers start researching in March and do several hour visits during the Spring to lock everything down. Players even eat the same meals every weekend, because they don't wan to risk something not sitting well and changing their playing capacity.

I suppose everyone is different. I didn't play, but I was in the army and in good shape and I slept on top of tanks and all kinds of shit and outside this time a mosquito bite my lip, I was able to stretch out any kinks. Pass out in floors, etc.

Now these days...I take my own pillow no matter where I go.

This was pretty much my point. I'd much sooner play in front of a loud, raucous crowd than have to fly across the country and share a room in some hotel with another meathead.

Brutus doesn't care about LSU. Let's face it, Ohio State fans are just dreading the return of Florida to proper bowl contention...because Florida always beats them.
Not me. I hope you suckers keep going up. I picked the drag assers as my underrated pick.

Meh... neither team is getting past bama.
Then it's DGAF bowls for the both of'em
