The playoffs have rendered the games meaningless. Plus it's hella expensive just to go see a shitty glorified exhibition game. I'd rather spend my money going skiing and watching games on TV during the holidays.

I somewhat question the sanity of anyone who disagrees

You had other bowls with even worse attendance outside SEC.
They will play them in empty stadiums if they have to.
It's all about tv and an infomercial for the bowl host city.
With playoffs fans are not going to shell out the money they used to.
Problem with Sugar, it was on a Monday night, very late. Most people went back to work today. Plus any late local crowd was not going in yesterday's weather.

FIFY

Oprah is out there handing out bowl games like they are new cars. You're right though that they are just glorified exhibition games at this point.
