    The bowls should only exist as round one of the playoffs. This era dictates that every team in the post season be "in it", or the good players have no motivation to play.

    Make it a big tournament.

    Though December Devastation and January Justice doesn't sound quite as good as March Madness, I tend to agree with you.

    Maybe the bowls would be round two or three if you did it right. 32 team tournament and the round of 8 is the bowl games. I'd be for it if reduced to four bowl games in the semis instead.

    Just kill the bowls. It’s like staying in a broken relationship. Other than Utah nobody gives a shit about any bowl game this year. The bowls serve no purpose. Just mimic the division 2 playoff, squeeze it for all the money and move on. It’s going to happen but prolonging it is even dumber.

    I know what you mean, but I guessed that some of the bowl relationships are too profitable to throw away, and they wouldn't detract from anything. A round of big games with all the pageantry and other faggy shit along with the premium advertising dollars on new year's day still seems like it could be a useful part of the equation to me. Timing is almost perfect to make that the quarter or semi finals.
