Bowl Games of Interest

The automatic byes lead to bad matchups.

The top 4 seeds should get bye weeks. Not the top 4 conference champions. The G5 champion should get to host, it would be way more intriguing than a bye week.

I have mixed feelings about the conference champions getting bys. On the one hand, it does make the conference championship mean something. On the other hand, you are right, it doesn’t necessarily give the four top rated teams a bu

False: didnt the other thread say 55pct of portal players dont find a place, so couldnt players still be in portal from last year and still on old team

Here it is:

What they need to do is take away some of the g5 affiliated bowls, move them back a few days and leave the slots TBD to give a bowl to the P4 teams that lose in first round of playoffs.
