So how many 5-7 teams are going to get to go to a bowl this year?

It's the equivalent of a participation trophy.

We'll eventually stop keeping score.

Kentucky will be one of the 5-7 teams bowling and for that I apologize. 6-6 was a bad enough metric for eligibility. Wish we wouldn't accept a bid but I know we will. Ugh. Mediocrity reigns.

Because bowls don't matter.
If you aren't top 4 your arse should be at home

We won't have this problem once we get to a 128-team playoff...

Your face is stupid, that's why,







I'm..I'm sorry. I just want us to get back to bowling and the wait is making me irritable.

Money.. Do you think these sponsors and networks are just going to let them go unfilled?

Unless you're in the playoffs, the bowl games are just a means to get extra practice, nothing more.
