do we live in when the likes of Old Dominion and UT San Antonio are playing in bowl games and the Huskies are not?

Such a world could exist.

And in fact, does.

I bet Old Dominion fans were All In. It helps.

Incoming hot take and maybe shit is too complicated with the modern landscape of college football, but what if power programs who weren't bowl eligible set up a game with each other just to have another game. I know December weather also makes this less exciting. For example, Washington plays Texas in Austin or a smaller indoor venue? Or play Nebraska or USC. Also, if you want to know how bad things are. Texas, Nebraska, USC, and Washington are the only programs anyone gives a shit about who weren't bowl eligible this year.

Our players quit after the Montana game.

Several players sat out the trip to Arizona.

Why would they want to play one more game with Gregory as HC?

The kind of world where a leopard coat wearing AD is the leader of UW athletics.

If they got rid of 90 percent of the bowl games nobody would care. Especially the kids. Many would prefer to be home over winter break than be in Shreveport, Boise or a number of other odd places to play a football game.

What kind of world are we living in where Bob Gregory is promoted from ILB coach to defensive coordinator to interim head coach less than two years after overseeing the worst Husky linebacker play of all-time?

Blob of lard covered in leopard print. Shes Carol Baskin without the killer instinct.

Fine. I think finding a way to go back to 2-3 non-conference games pitting equal programs against each other is actually the better way to go but I know logistically that just won't ever happen unless we go to the eventually super conference league.

I want to:

1. Get rid of all the bowls except the first tier (Orange, Rose, Fiesta, Sugar and I would add back in the Cotton) and one level of secondary bowls (Holiday, Citrus, Sun, Alamo, Gator, Peach or whatever - take your pick but limit the to 5 or 6 and that's it).

2. I would not allow bowls to be named by stupid people. Your choices are fruit, flowers, fierce animals and a few that can be grandfathered in like the Sun or Holiday. After that, no mas dumb sounding bowls like the Pin Stripe. WTF thought of that? Wrong sport dipshit.

3. Firebomb Tuscaloosa (not genocide; just football ops)

3. Make the playoffs illegal; I like arguing

4. Make any team who fails to schedule and play at least one P5 non-con ineligible for the first tier.

5. Realign the conferences to eliminate goofy geographical alliances. I'd kick Nebraska out of the Big 10, Syracuse and Boston College out of the ACC and rebuild the SWC and make the teams who are supposed to be there be there.

6. Make Notre Dame join a conference for all sports or be an independent for all sports. No cherrypicking.

I know, a lot of stupid shit, but cfb is run by stupid so what's a little more stupid if it makes me happy.

Their coaches aren't looking at guaranteed money and boating to work drinking fancy coffee while deluding themselves into thinking that an NFL playbook is a good idea.

What, exactly, did Kyler Manu ever do to you?

Driving 2010 Camry’s to work and drinking Maxwell House from their Mr Coffee out of a stained coffee mug or a styrofoam cup. That’s for sure. Also, the probably wear windbreakers and Bike brand stretchy shorts with their clip boards tucked into the front. And a baseball cap that sits way up on their heads
