Yeah...41 bowl games this season.  That's truly crazy.

Saw your post and just picked out a year from my youth.  I chose 1976..........grand total of 12 bowls.

Went back 30 years to 1988 and there were 17 bowls and to me that was when the bowl games meant something.  That year IU beat South Carolina 34-10 to win the Liberty Bowl.

I completely agree, Scott.   It's just another aspect of the business of sports generating a glut of product for tv consumption.  It just creates an attitude of "who cares" for many.

When I was in college i was getting up around noon but would have passed out by 330. I not the guy to ask. Just kidding kinda

My daughter said that now they get up around 7am and go to Nick's or Killroy's for a noon start because they have something for the fans before the game.
