Thanks for the info, and I love betting on bowls and I am FAR better at it than I was five years ago, but who's going to fill those spots?
Bowl games are probably the most overrated game in sports....most games have to be identified as whether the team is even interested in being there..or some dumb fuck in the studio telling us how important the game is for next year... If I have to watch a game this year for its importance for next year , I'm not interested
There's probably a correlation. I'll take that tradeoff for three months of meaningful games. To channel Huey Long: Every game a championship!Bowl games are pretty fun to go to if your team is playing in the game (the events leading up to the game and the post parties are a lot of fun)
There are also a few games that you can "snuff out" and make a nice profit on
However, i do agree that overall, bowl games suck (if your team isnt playing and have no skin in the game).
College football has the best regular season and the worst post season

Why the **** would I want to beat Alabama to prove (theoretically) that I'm better than 100+ teams that I didn't play? I want to beat Alabama. Period.
I want to beat my rivals, and for the most part those contests are played in the regular season.
