pretty funny deal for bowl game eligibility.

1. you have to win six games

2. you have to have a winning record.

The NCAA Competition Committee is meeting to discuss the unpleasant discovery that there are now 41 bowl game, including the Championship. That means they need 80 teams, since the final game will pit the winners of the four team playoff.

The funny part; at this point there are only 71 projected teams that meet that criteria.

They think sponsors may balk at the prospect of shelling out fifteen to twenty (or more) millions of dollars to fund a bowl with one or both teams 6 and 7.

Ya think!!!

follow the money

allow the Ajax Toilet Bowl, Campbells Soup Bowl, Alpo Dog Food Bowl, and Ceasars Salad Bowl to have teams with losing records. Seriously, other than alumni of the respective participants, does anyone really watch all these outliers??? Who really cares, in terms of advertising ?

Absolutely true, my friend. Years ago, a Bowl Bid used to mean something. Anymore, by the time the best teams are playing, I'm so tired of College Football, I usually don't watch.
