Notre Dame vs LSU. That will be a good game.

You forgot toilet bowl once a day.

[HangnJudge]

Sugar Bowl Playoff semifinal, 8:45 p.m. on ESPN: Clemson vs. Alabama

[Dilbert San Diego]

I’m just a casual fan. But, have never heard of most of those bowl games.

Thanks for posting this schedule.

So many bowls...i got some better (i think) ideas...

How about the two worst teams (toilet bowl?)
Best defense vs best offence (max contrast bowl)
Best mascot vs worst mascot. (icon bowl)
Team with highest avg gpa vs team with lowest gpa (brain/nobrain) bowl
Most expensive program vs least expensive program (money bowl)
Im sure there are many more categories..

Bunch of duds.

Here’s a big problem now with bowl games. You’re starting to see a lot of players who are about to be drafted by NFL teams sitting the games out, and frankly who could blame them?

[dfwgator]

I have an idea....Why not essentially have an NIT for College Football? Instead of all of the garbage bowl games, take the 32 teams and put them in a tournament to determine the “Best of the Rest”?

[TomGuy]

I counted nearly 50 bowl games a couple of years ago. There are so many that they have to find teams with 6-6 records to play in them. There are so many they have lost their pizzazz.

There used to be 4. Then 5. Now, nearly 50.

Weird having Ohio State playing USC in Dallas instead of Pasadena.

[Yaelle]

Dumb question. But do any teams NOT make a bowl?

[Libloather]

Gasparilla Bowl

Say wha...?

[PAR35]

Two bowls in Friso, Texas - the DXL bowl and the National Championship for the Division 1 FCS.

One bowl in Dallas - the Zaxby’s “Not the Cotton Bowl” played in the Cotton Bowl

One bowl in Arlington - the Goodyear “Cotton Bowl” not played in the Cotton Bowl

One bowl in Fort Worth - the Lockheed Martin Bowl.

5 bowl games in one metro area.

Of course, Atlanta has 3 -

The AFRican Celebration Bowl, the National Championship, and the Chick-fil-a Bowl

I will give credit for the most aptly named bowl game for football players - the Bad Boys bowl in St. Pete. One of two in that metro area.

One bowl in Fort Worth - the Lockheed Martin Bowl.
