Seems to be a trend. Between that, the transfer portal, and NIL NCAA is totally different than 10 yrs ago. There is zero team concept anymore in my opinion.

Just the way the game is today. I can’t blame the players. I wouldn’t go risk an injury during the bowl games and possibly ruin the millions of dollars in future income. Their careers can change in an instant with an injury. Do I like it, heck no but those are the rules now.

Having your coach quit on you wasn't a good start.

The idea of "team" is one thing but the ncaa and universities have made sooooo much money off the backs, knees, brains, etc of the athletes I would not blame anyone for not putting themselves at risk of devaluing their future opportunities.
Has any one individual had a phenomenal bowl game and came out with a better draft spot?

That’s embarrassing .
The bowls started out with the Big Ten winning all 4 of their games now it’s up to Penn State to get the Big Ten over .500.
4 straight losses.

Question from a casual watcher at best.
Why are there so many bowl games now?
Seems like when I was growing up there was only a handful at most.

And if you are not in a bowl game that is being considered for National Champ...why even have it. So the schools and ncaa can make $ is why |
