Which side are you arguing for? Very few professionals would work beyond the scope of their contract for no further compensation. I'm not saying that's what this is but you were responding to a conversation that started with someone saying bowl games aren't stipulated in their contacts (I'm assuming as a thought exercise). In that scenario, not playing the bowl game would be acting like a professional.

So you want us to have a non-conferemce schedule of Ohio State, Indiana, Oregon, and Notre Dame next year?
-
If you think inserting other players into the game is chess then you may want to stop by the Chutes and Ladders message board for something more your speed.

I agree that the bowl game is beneficial for the roster but should also be treated like an exhibition on game day. It's Sarkisian's job to use the practices wisely and keep the team engaged. In the transfer portal and NIL era there should be a lot of benefit to evaluating the roster for 2026. Which is exactly why during the game the starters should get a quarter plus a drive before backups start getting snaps against a talented opponent. That is not something you can replicate in spring or fall practice. But, and this is the key because Sarkisian has sucked at this, once the younger players being evaluated are in the game the intensity has to stay elevated. They should be playing to win not just bleed clock. We have no idea what the heck our backups are capable of late in seasons because they are only allowed to run vanilla plays/schemes.

James Madison is in because the ACC was awful. That's not the committee's fault and it's not the rules' fault. Top 5 conference champions is a decent rule. Also, James Madison will get killed but they're probably also better than UVA and Duke. None of the 3 are among the best 25 teams in the country, though.
-
No we don't, because currently some teams are willing to play those game and some teams aren't. If every team goes that route then it's a much different position.

Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs

Or maybe the entire reason he was hyping up how important those games are was to defend against us getting left out but it happened anyway so now it's been proven that playing them is detrimental. -
This is one of the dumbest non sequiturs I've ever seen only made dumber by the fact it's asking someone to prove a negative. Congrats on a remarkably terrible post. Georgia destroyed FSU because FSU was ass and Georgia was awesome. That game had essentially nothing to do with Georgia the last two seasons, and my only point is that FSU being a helmet school had even less to do with it. They would have destroyed anyone and continued on to their 2024 and 2025 seasons.
-
Thinking that "beating a helmet team" matters to next season or to the players is even sillier than the posts you're responding to.

After doing their best to make it dramatic, McLaren did everything right today. They covered off every strategic option that could have threatened them, really perfect work by the team strategists today.

Not really, they played an FCS team. An FCS team that went 3-8 against FCS opponents. -
This is dumb. Yes I looked at the source. It's only going to get dumber every year as NIL increases parity across the P4 conferences.

But that's the question. How much of that is the cars and how much is it Hamilton sucking at the end of this season? Leclerc is still handily beating Antonelli in quali each week (Qatar excepted) and beat Russell at COTA. I'd say the Mercedes is nominally better overall than the Ferrari right now but not nearly as much as it's being made to look due to Hamilton's results. Plus there's always the second Red Bull car to consider. I know Verstappen is ridiculous but there is still something going on over there. I can't believe anyone is that much better than the rest of the F1 field.

Well I mean he's probably a top 10ish driver this season, so he's definitely cooked compared to what he used to be but it's not like he's bad. 3 straight weekends out in Q1 certainly doesn't make it seem like it's getting any better though. And the defense that it's all a crappy car and team rings sort of hollow. It's still the 3rd or 4th best car on the grid and he's getting knocked out in Q1 and his run of championships was with an absolutely dominant car and team. Anyone willing to bet money that two time driver runner-up Bottas will be in the top 4 of the driver standings next year in a Cadillac?
