I wish all 6-6 & 7-5 would be left out.
I'd like Bowls to be something you actually earn. 8 wins should be a minimum and even then not a guaranty, IMO.
I still pray the Utes and Aggies meet in Vegas...may have to attend that one.

Wyoming had a great team in '96, finished rankings #22, and didn't go bowling

Wow that is fascinating. That season 1995 the WAC had a 4-way tie for first

Yep...and again, Wyoming at 10-2 left out of '96 and was really an underrated

No team (including BYU) should go to a bowl with a 6-6 record. There are too

Why? You don't have to watch. I'd be fine if there were bowls for 2-10 teams.

One teeny-tiny problem. Only 3 bowl games sell well anymore. CFP semi's & final.

I do agree those teams need more practice. Let them practice.

No he mentioned BYU in his opening paragraphs.

11/13/18 10:30am
yea, I think the issue is that rule applies to contracted bowls.

That's the only reason Mandel forgot about byu?

I do know that 6-6 teams must go before 5-7 teams, but I think that's it.
