The playoff has ruined the bowl games

The playoff didn't ruin the bowl games, the proliferation of bowl games ruined the bowl games. If there were only 5-10 bowl games, people would care a whole lot more. As it is now, bowl games are basically lopsided OOC matchups that are just as boring as regular season lopsided OOC matchups.

UGA playing Baylor in the Sugar Bowl? Who in the ever loving frick could care one bit about that game?

The fact is that the fans that care the most about bowl games are the fans of teams in the CFP, and the fans of teams who haven't been eligible for a bowl game for a while.

This guy gets it.

Bowls were once a place where college football's most elite teams would battle each other on a neutral field for bragging rights and momentum going into the next season. In 1979, there were 15 bowl games. 40 years later, there are 40 of them.
