Bowls need to go away now that there is an expanded playoff.
Why? The players are rewarded with a trip, the teams get an extra three weeks of practice at the end of the year under a low pressure situation, younger kids likely get there first action in a non-rent-a-win game, and I get to watch football on a Saturday. Unless you are a less than casual fan, what is wrong with any of that?

Problem with the lower tier bowls is the opt-outs which screws up betting. Can't get into these games unless I've got a little something riding on it.

Let’s fast forward to June or. July and see what folks are saying about watching any kind of during that dead sports period. It’s either too much or not enough.

Why?
Because the transfer portal has resulted in teams having trouble filling out a competent roster in many cases. It’s just not good football. And these bowl games which are almost entirely meaningless now will become even more so with 12 teams in a playoff.
The only way to possibly save this might be to move all non-playoff bowls up to before Christmas and then let the transfer portal open on like Dec 26 or something. Even then I think motivation is going to be difficult to come by.
