I think they still have a few good moments here and there but it's hard to come up with new stuff indefinitely. having more teams in the conference and the conference as a whole having a bit of a down year it seems a bit watered down. I think it's generally hard to be a fan of college football these days since it's just another pro sport now.

As the emotional connection between the teams and the schools fades over time , as the game is more and more recognized as simply semi-pro farm competition, it will become more difficult for them, I think.

It's tough to come up with something new every week. They only have about 24 hours after the last game on Saturday night to produce a show. I still find them entertaining and it hasn't cost me a dime.
I don't think I watched a single one this year, but I still appreciate their effort to entertain. Like you said, it doesn't cost me a dime, so I hope they keep on rocking.

They were funny but got a little repetitive, although I wasn’t a regular watcher.

I got tired of Funnymaine (or whatever his name was) after a while. Had pretty much the same routine.

I thought this one was pretty funny. I especially liked the dig on Auburn. And the Vandy pimp always makes me laugh. But that's probably the last we'll see of him.

Funnymaine is just unwatchable now. Not that he was ever that good to begin with. He still uses the same jokes he did when he started in 2015

Like a lot of things, they were definitely better way back when. This past year got stale quick. The Vandy pimp was overdone to the nth degree. And that bedtime stories one just came off as odd.They started these back in 2014, so after a decade, it's definitely not surprising that it feels like there has been significant dropoff. Of course, that's my .02. I talked to somebody the other day who said that they feel like they have only gotten better with time. I think they jumped the shark around 2019 or so
Without reading other reponses, my first reaction is could some feel this way because of Bama's bad season?

There's no question in my mind that these videos are always better for me as a Bama fan when they poke fun of other schools and Bama is the bully of the conference. Basically, Vandy became Bama's pimp this year and it was hard to accept.

FWIW, I felt like some of their videos this year were very, very good. I also like the new "country girl" they added this year.
