the bowls were special at one time but now we have teams that go .500 and still make a bowl...hell some have gone 5-7 and made bowls. Way too many bowl games. I hate that most are tie ins and don't allow for teams to experience different bowls.

The current bowl system (outside of the playoff) is a glorified scrimmage where some younger players get to play.

unless they did a NIT version of the playoff..
which wouldn’t be popular, but it would be good experience for the younger players

i see why some do but it also aggravates me that some opt out. Like you said it's a glorified scrimmage and opting out is smart but on the other hand you're quitting on your team.

Why not re-seed after Round 1?

Kinda sucks that you miss out on that if your team is top 4.


Wait the second round games are not on campus? I thought it was only semifinals and finals

I can’t wait for the 12 team playoff…

… so teams 13-24 can bitch about deserving to be in.

So any team with a conference championship game will have to play 16 games to win it all?

I do think it would be better to have all games on campus until the championship game.


Everyone will say this right up until their team gets stuck with a playoff game at the Big House or the Horseshoe in -10 degree weather in the middle of a driving snowstorm.
