Is it just me or have these New Years games become boring and meaningless????
I seem to recall that in my younger days I loved New Years Day bowl games....Cotton/Citrus in the morning Fiesta late morning followed by Rose then Orange and Sugar at night.
The games were fun and exciting, there was pagentry and great matchups.....
The past few years ( 5-6) it seems that most of these games are a waste and not interesting except for the so called "title game" and now that's 2 days after Jan. 1. I still love the Rose Bowl but not unless it's Pac-10/Big-10.
Get us excited again....create a playoff for 8 teams and use the minor bowls for the worthless teams (a reward for their 6-6 season and 7th place conference finish). Have a about 5 early Jan 1 bowl games as a lead in to the title game at 8pm/5pm on New Years Day.... Hey some teams not deserving can now say they played in a Jan 1st bowl game since teams 1-8 would make the playoff.
Hey Univ. Presidents...if getting us excited and actually settling things on the field isn't reason enough...think of the CASH you will bring in with the TV contract. Billions!!!!!!!!!!!
