my eye, all that has happened is that the CFP games are elevated much higher, but not at the expense of the others. If there is anything driving lower bowl apathy, it's the sheer volume of games with barely qualifying teams, along with the opt-outs, and a general fragmenting of entertainment. What am I missing?
Opt outs are caused by the playoff games being elevated at the expense of others.

I don't buy it. Even back in the AP era (before the BCS when NC was voted on by media), only a few teams going into bowl season had a chance at the MNC. You still didn't see teams ranked, say 20th, opting out of bowl games even though their chances of winning the MNC were zero.
