BBTV Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 What's the point of the 6-win rule? Since the bowls don't really matter much anymore anyway since there's roughly a million of them, what's the harm if the Draft Kings Bowl sponsored by Fan Duel wants to put a name-brand team that had a terrible year in to their bowl? I get rules, but it seems that so many in the NCAA are totally arbitrary.

Geoff Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 It won't happen because they still have to play GaSou but it would be absolutely hilarious if Georgia State got to 6-6 and went to a bowl.

Don't think the NCAA anticipated these cities/bowl games coming on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also enjoy all the "little" bowls in between and even I think there are too many bowls. We need about 10 of the bowl games to go away. * © Still MIGHTY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm heavily rooting for all the 5-6 teams today, I really don't want to see losing record blueblood go up against a 6-6 sun belt team in a bowl game.

oldschoolvikings Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Well, its too bad this wasn't the Ohio State team we saw all year, but a vicious beat down of Michigan never gets old. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfwabel Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Outside of beating a 15th ranked Georgia team which finished 8-5 in 2013, telling reporters he wants his assistant coaches to have wives too attractive for them and attempting to cover up a sexual assault involving his players, what has James Franklin ever done?

See Red Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Pretty much what I've expected in the Swamp. Florida's many flaws being exposed as they look like they're going to be eliminated from playoff contention -- they would have been slaughtered anyways. Treon Harris brings absolutely nothing to the table and his backup QB couldn't even crack second string at Vandy last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
