The one problem with College Football is they bastardized New Years Day which has hurt them with the postseason stuff and all of the bowls. College Football used to own New Years Day and from 11am to midnight it was around the clock non-stop football all day on many networks. Since the sport has sold itself to the devil (ESPN) they have let ESPN trickle these games out one by one by one over the course of a week when that has killed the postseason in some ways for College Football. Every major sport has "a day" at the end of the year. College Football should (I know they won't) go back to having the majority of Bowl Games on the same day...NEW YEARS DAY!!  There is no reason they can't air games all day on ESPN/ABC/ESPN2. There should be 2 or 3 games all day all the time on Jan 1st, yes at the same time!  Play the Orange, Fiesta, Sugar, Rose, Cotton all on one day (years they aren't in the playoff)...Outback, Capital One, Gator Bowl(Taxslayer)...all of them. Start at 11am and just have 2 or 3 going at once all day. Move a couple other bowl games to New Years Day if you can like the Music City or Liberty Bowl. It's the BEST PR the sport gets your only competition on that day is some meaningless hockey game played outside, and will be the most watched day of the year for College Football.
