No New Bowls

Just 2 years ago the SBC had 3 teams get left out. If they cut back on bowls where exactly you think they are gonna start? You will have a 9-3 possibly 10-2 SBC team sitting at home and still have 2, 6-6 P-5's going at it. We will be the first league to have Bowls taken away.

One of the things I read was a requirement teams with winning records would have to be placed ahead of 6 and 6 teams may be considered. That would make things somewhat fair although teams from the P5 leagues do travel better than the top teams from the G5 leagues.

Mike that was the argument for the 64 teams. That went away almost the first year.

Although I'm not a fan of teams with losing records playing in a bowl its better letting the market decide. The moratorium could have unforeseen consequences. Such as there could be a couple of bowls hanging on by a thread right now in their existing location. What if the Camelia Bowl dies and needs to be reincarnated in San Antonio or Houston? Meaning is the moratorium a site neutral thing whereas a conference can relocate a bowl game? Or is that a no go?

we (as a collective) have fallen for this false narrative that there are too many bowls.....sunbelt has made great strides with more new tie-ins than any other conference. so why should that momentum be stopped,instead why not re-evaluate some of the existing bowls that are the 9th and 10th tie-in for let's say the SECspn/NCAA alliance, rather than curtail new opportunities?
