Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Why do people watch the fourth and fifth tier bowl games?

    I don't. Both on principle - I don't want to contribute to the viewership - and I too have many other things I'd rather watch and do.

    Rewarding mediocrity with some stupid post-season game is fs. If I were in charge, any team under 9 wins wouldn't be bowl eligible and I'd go back to the non-corporate names, and then only have the Rose, Orange, Sugar, Fiesta, Cotton and then maybe like the Gator, Citrus, Holiday, Alamo and Peach. 10 bowls, 20 teams and that's fucking it. WFC about anything beyond that?

    ESPN doesn’t give a shit if you watch or not. They have so much air time to fill on their 8 different channels hence the Boca Vista Bowl. 3.5-4 hours of air time filled with bad runs paying ESPN.

    As much as I hate ESPN, I have to remind myself that without them, I’m probably not seeing 70% of the games currently televised.
    So, my vote doesn't count?

    I don’t know how anyone could bash the Bad Boy Mowers Pinstripe Bowel. Any time you have a chance to watch powerhouses like Minnesota and Syracuse play, you have to take it. You just have to.

    I’m also looking forward to rooting against FSU today. The hype train for “The job Mike Norvell has done” and Florida States nine wins and if there were a twelve team playoff “no one would want to play the Noles” has been thoroughly annoying. Getting their doors blown off by a 6 win Oklahoma team would be heartwarming. I’ll be watching!

    This SU-UM game is an abortion of football. The field is such shit. They shouldn’t play the game at Yankee stadium.
