re: Myth: "The BCS/CFP ruined college football by making all other bowl games irrelevant."

dd to that, there also used to only be 4 major bowls. Now there are 6. Seeing non conference champion 9-3 teams make the Sugar Bowl is just stupid. Bowls like that used to be reserved for conference champs or top 5-8 at-large teams, not for teams that used to be playing in the Citrus or Gator Bowls.

Agreed. I guess the argument could be made that the CFP watered down the non playoff “major” bowls for that years rotation, but we still had UGA-Hawaii and Bama-Utah games before the playoff. Bowl season is a diluted product at this point, from the NY6 down to the mid December games.
