Are Bowl Games Becoming Meaningless?

    When UW went to the Sun Bowl in 79 with a 9-2 record it was cool

    But basically once James got rolling the minor bowls we? went to were meaningless

    Rose Bowl or bust

    The change today is the devaluation of the Rose 🌹

    And beating Texas

    I explained my thoughts on that in a previous post. You're not likely to agree, and are a cock sucker, so I'm not going to explain it now.

    Ah that was uncalled for. I'm sure you're a swell fella.

    I'd try reducing to a total of four bowl games and make it the quarterfinal round. Or a max of eight and make it the second round. You'd get better matchups and better games, and make the surviving bowl games that much more meaningful and fun, if it was the round of 8 only.

    Making the semis bowl games means there are two meaningful bowls. Making it the quarterfinals means there are 4. Thats my thinking. I'm not saying it's creative or brilliant and won't satisfy everyone, but I think it's a simple solution that would work.

    It's special watching these bowel games. The head coach left two weeks ago for greener pastures, 3-4 key players on each side of ball are sitting it out for the draft. Pathetic... Burn it down or have an 8 team playoff with conference champs in major conferences going, have another NITish tourney for everyone else.
