makes sense but Hawaiians love Vegas

Maybe, but it will hurt every conference members revenue.

Me either, I must be misinformed or misunderstood.

39 bowl games.......... 78 spots........... utterly ridiculous............

"Here's your Participation certificate award..............

Im 40 and every sport i played when i was a kid i got a trophy or certificate given to me by people who were in their 20s or 30s so this concept that "kids" today are getting these things happens because of the generation that generally criticizes it.

Don't ask me questions I don't know the answer to

Why do we drive on parkways and park in driveways?

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Look in the stands for the bottom 20 bowls. hardly anyone is there. and TV viewership matches it. *** There ARE 1 or 2 games that are interesting. but 90% of these bowls are just stupid. no one gives a shit except maybe the players and their families who watch it.

Recruits might care a bit, but not if the team doesn't show up for the game

Well, I didn't live in a pansy ass state. There was no crying over it either. we were boys.

Why do we drive on parkways and park in driveways?

Ahhh...a Gallagher reference. A couple more I remember. "Why are their locks on the doors of 24 hour 7-11s? Why are hot dogs sold in groups of ten and hot dog buns in groups of eight? You have to buy 40 to make it come out even. "

Why Do We Park in the Driveway and Drive on the Parkway?

Here you go

Why do people say " its always in the last place youd look?" Of course it is. You dont look for it after you found it

Why do people point at their wrist when they ask you what time it is? No one points at their crotch when they ask you where the bathroom is

As of today 11/21/2019
39 bowl games 78 spots
66 bowl eligible teams
12 more needed
13 teams need 1 more win


Hawaii pretty much only team with their bowl already known as they pretty much will stay home and play in the Hawaii Bowl.

Here's the update with one weekend to go.

72 teams are bowl eligible

44 teams have been eliminated

14 teams with 5-6 records. (One of those teams is Army, but because they are playing 13 games this season
they need two more wins)

This coming weekend 7 of those 5-6 teams will be favored.

 

[TigerBait1971]

I love to watch football.

Even between shitty teams.

Love bowl season!

 

[Edisto_Tiger]

They should go ahead and expand the number of bowl games to 65 and include everyone. Fuck it, at this point. It's not a matter of prestige anymore, so let's get all the football we can.

I think that as long as a Bowl can make money doing what it does, the NCAA won't deny any new requests. So, lets do it.

I have to amend this post. The NCAA has upheld its bowl ban on Missouri.

Missouri was a favored 5-6 team this coming weekend vs Arkansas.

Revised at the moment...

72 teams are bowl eligible

45 teams have been eliminated.

13 eligible teams with 5-6 records. (One of those is Army, but because they are playing 13 games this season
they need two more wins.

This coming weekend 6 of those 5-6 teams will be favored. None of the 5-6 teams face each other.
