Nobody here should be laughing at this since there were (at best) 3k people in a 70k seat stadium for our bowl game. I'll hold on to my chuckles.

but we also had least notice and went to a place that is usually booked for holidays anyway, charges for parking, and was a repeat bowl opponent, and our coach hates our school colors they are playing a two yr undefeated team in an easy, cheap place to travel to with perfect weather this time of yr

In all fairness bowl tickets have always been fairly cheap on the secondary market. A couple years ago when Oklahoma played Auburn in the Sugar Bowl tickets were that cheap.

I mean that’s what happens when you create a last minute football game between two teams whose fan bases live hundreds of miles away. When you add in expensive last minute flights and expensive ___ hotel rooms you’re knocking on $1,000/person for the game. And that’s only if you don’t have holiday plans.

This bowl game thing is really stupid when you think about it.

anyone thought of a way to separate the revenue from non espn bowl games? seems we could still get our conf share of the espn games same as teams that dont go to bowls get, then the two cbs games could share separately just among four teams?

The #novaAZBOWL has already sold 34,000 tickets for Nevada vs Arkansas State; the bowl organizers credit that to keeping the game on a Saturday (1:15pm ET on CBSSN): https://t.co/fDOFKA61im

They're benefiting from an extra two weeks, and after Christmas instead of before. Still kudos to both.

[31Ragin97]

so maybe there arent too many bowl games, just too many before christmas? imagine if many games could be on tv simultaneously on different networks? ....magic wand style?

I think that's a pipe dream at this point. There's simply nowhere to go. Even if the P5 became the P4 by jettisoning off a few of its low achieving members, aligning with those cast away's in some sort of scheduling alliance wouldn't change anything. We'd still be in the group of have not's, though I guess we'd be in the tallest midget club.

I suppose I need to take back everything I said earlier about us needing to take heed of La Tech's bowl winning streak. Nothing anybody does at the G5 level will really change anything.

You must be a riot at parties. I bet the turd in the punchbowl is jealous.
