I would like to see a couple of the bowl games moved to the 2nd or 3rd week of September and invite two teams that appear to be in the running for the playoffs. Send the invitations out in November or December so the teams can adjust their schedule logistics. This would provide interesting games and matchups during a time of year you typically get a weekend of bunch non interesting games. Players couldn’t opt out and coaching staffs would be intact.

Pre- BCS bowls were great, before the slotting and heavier conference ties. They tended to be really fun matchups where starters from the season actually played like it was a big deal, because it was a big deal to have an extra bonus game with a lot of watchers. Y'all young whipper-snappers don't even know. It was awesome.

the 16 team playoff is going to fucking suck !!!

Your team looked excited to play in the Cheez It Citrus Bowl and they were excited to win as well. There is a place for the better bowls, but there are way too many who gives a damned bowls played before hundreds.

I am more than ok not having the tie in with Playoffs and the bowl brand it’s dumb and trying to explain to a younger person the history of the individual bowls. Then after all that having them say after a 30 minute convoluted explanation and playoff conversation…..”so this is the big bowl game like the important one” ……F’ me…… Well no but yes, but not really. “Just f’ing enjoy the GD game”…. then I hear…. is this the championship or is there one more?

The teams playing may not have the exact same roster they had during the season, but it's still players on the roster and many who will either be starters next season or hitting the portal.

Not every matchup is a great one, but take our Cheez-it bowl for example...about halfway through the first quarter I didn't really care we were missing tons of players we had during the season and just enjoyed watching the future do their thing. Seems the transition from Anthill to Tyanthony will be relatively seamless, and Christian Clark looks completely back from his Achilles.

Pragmatic fans who aren’t just doomers should look at these nonCFP bowl games as chances to see backups who will start next year play starter minutes against real competition. It’s actually better than a spring game, because now the young guys who should start next year will have game film to work off of all spring with the coaches before fall camp
