[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 988207, member: 1640"] I am so nostalgic for the way bowls used to be but on the whole they are meaningless now. Tech’s bowl meant something to the players because the team still had goals to achieve and the team understood they were building for next year. But they will be the exception this year. Most teams have met their goals this year or the goals are beyond achieving at this point. I wonder how long the TV networks will be able to keep us the charade that these games prove something? As players opt out of bowls, or players phone in their effort during the game, more and more fans will quit believing the hype that these games are measuring the strength of a program or the strength of a conference. When this reaches critical mass the TV networks will have some decisions to make. Maybe bowl games will become like spring games and they will be sold as parties with lots of swag, live bands, guest celebrities and autograph sessions. [/QUOTE]
