We should accept a bowl given the chance

Would I watch? Probably. Because I’m insane. But while I get that point about most of the bowls not mattering because national title is out of the question, I only buy that to a degree. I mean if that were the case, why bother with any bowl outside the playoffs?

Why watch any regular season games when both teams have 2 losses or more? Because football is fun to watch.

Winning is fun. Actually being competitive is fun too. Terrible football is not fun.

My teenager says we’re 3rd in line for a bowl for 5 winners.

That’s what he said. Saw it somewhere on Twitter, so I’m sure it’s true. lol 

 

edit- realize it might be how I said it. 3rd in line of the five win teams to get a bowl.  Of course that might change of Florida or others win.

I would be surprised if there are that many bowl spots available.

A bowl is a bowl is a bowl.  One more game, extra practices and a chance for one more win.  I'll take it.  Even if we didn't "earn" it.

He also be wrong as he refused to source it. He quits talking with extra questions.

Looks like 43 bowls (can't tell if this includes playoffs) with 77 teams qualified.  Still leaves 9 teams.

games are still being played. there aren't 82 teams yet to my knowledge. But there are 2 teams that aren't "eligible" for the absurd reason that they moved UP from FCS to FBS that magically become eligible and take the first 2 spots if not enough teams get to mediocre. Sorry, I don't have a link for you. We aren't getting a bid - that is my belief.
