It happens that quickly. The times have changed and the bowl games don’t matter the same way they used to. It’s time to work on the depth and the principles of your program while also rewarding kids with a nice trip. They’re back to being exhibitions.
Something we knew would happen once the playoffs started

Yep, I was actually more excited about USC's game after it was announced that Williams wasn't playing because I wanted to see what Moss could do.

The bowl games going back to what they were before the poll era, etc. may end up being the best unintended consequence of the playoff.

Which why i think most of these bowl games should be canceled
Im with you until I actually watch ND’s bowl game today. Good bowl prep and a bowl win launches you into your off season strength and conditioning and you have good tape to coach guys on how to approach spring. This is where culture and program can really matter.

Ohio St will be looking in the portal for a QB. Not like Brown had a chance to prove himself but he just doesn’t look like that guy. Plenty of QB’s available.

Malachi Nelson is in the portal. There's a rumor that he may take himself out of the portal because it appears that Will Howard is unlikely to sign with USC after Miller Moss' Holiday Bowl performance.

Kids a 5 star prospect. As I said above, looks like Will Howard is also available.

If Day doesn’t look in the portal, he is simply blind or an idiot. The guy couldn’t complete a forward pass tonight, true freshman. Unless Air Noland starts as a true freshman and that would surprise me

Moss made a good case to be the starter in that game...

So the wife was on the phone with her daughter Taylor yesterday....

In the background, "Ya ya!!!"

I was passing by her office/spare bedroom...."Hi, Demetrius!!!!"

I hear, "That's D-pa!!!"

My heart was singing.

Actually I wasn’t saying Williams is an idiot for that, I was saying the team was weak for allowing it. Plenty of things Williams is stupid as f about though.

The team is weak for allowing the player to sit out?

The player is sitting out because he is leaving for the draft in a couple months.

The team has absolutely 0 leverage in this. None at all.

And bowl games have become a complete joke outside the playoff. Outside of die hard fans nobody cares about these games.

You misunderstood me. The player in this case has not announced for the draft or gone in the portal.
