Maybe I'm too old,
I remember when bowl games meant something.

Count me in averagedawg.
Always looked forward to the bowl games.
It is a bit like everyone gets a trophy.
From where I sit, expand the playoffs from four to whatever number. Would get my interest for sure. At some point it will happen, though some of us might not be around to see it.

Thumbs up on this. There are far too many bowl games that don't mean a thing except that the schools get a windfall profit sharing check from the bowl sponsor, the players get goodie bags, and everyone gets to go on TV and be talked up by the commentators about how good their program and coaches are.
I, for one, miss the BCS ranking system. I'm not a fan of the playoffs, but rather than going on some long rant about the reasons I'm against the ridiculous playoffs, I'll just say that I agree with Buc. If the whole intent was to make it "fair" for all the conferences to get a shot at the big dance (it wasn't the intent), then expand the playoffs and seed all the conference winners, with 1 wild card spot for a qualifying conference or independent.

Here lies the danger in blanket statements IMO
Those who didn't watch the famous Pinstripe Bowl
Missed a good college football game on a scale with
Bama or any other playoff team. No and no
However... If you know Coach Cullciff and the Duke
Football program you can appreciate what he has done
For the college game.... First bowl win since 1961
Granted to many bowl games but then once in a
While......take that Big whatever....Go Dawgs

yankeedawg1, David Cutcliffe has always been a coach that I consider one of the best.
Absolute straight shooter.
