    If we go 7 and 5, we will still be in a bowl if the no. drops to 30.

    Why the hate for bowls? No one is required to watch one, and none are more or less important now that only the final four and national championship mean anything at all.

    The last time I checked absolutely nobody had their season tickets cancelled for not going to a bowl game. I can tell you, as bad as this season was, it was way better the day we got the NOLA bid, and I had an absolute blast at the NOLA bowl, and at the pre game festivities and I live eight minuets from the French Quarter. The NOLA with Louisiana in it is one of the few instances I fight the traffic to go into there.

    So your own experiences should be the only justification for bowl games? That's such a Leftist way to think.

    But his experiences are so much important than brutal common sense. That's snowflake territory. That's millennial talk.

    You insult a patriot and big Cajun fan because he enjoyed a bowl experience with his team. That is out of line.

    Tit for tat. I care not if he is a "patriot"...loving one's country doesn't put someone up on a pedestal...neither does serving this country. You still have to be a normal human being...and not try to label everything you don't think is kosher. So...I'm going to call you a ____ing nazi for trying to control who I insult. This is America (bald eagle scream)...and if I choose to blindly say dumb ____...I get to blindly say dumb ____. I'm in line with the Constitution (gun shot). The Founding Fathers made sure I had the ability to do so. So before you go on again and make yourself look like a lederhosen wearing kraut saluting der fuhrer...think about what Paul Revere (horse neigh) rode for on that great night. It sure as ____ wasn't trying to control people's opinions.

    I don't hate the bowls. I watch the major games and the ones involving the SBC teams. I am only predicting the financial situation will cause more to fold and the final no. will be around 30. With 40 bowls 80 teams out of 128 FBS teams participate. That to me indicates teams that do not "deserve" post season play get to do so. That is a much higher percentage than D1 basketball teams that go to post season play, even when you add the pay to play tournaments. I won't argue that some of the basketball teams that play in those also do not deserve post season play. The FACT is however the percentage of those is not as high as it is in football.
