Message: [QUOTE="TheCusian, post: 1504412, member: 2585"] Truth is somewhere in the middle. You do gain a certain amount of lasting value from playing great "name" teams tight, especially if they are ranked. Addazzio and Shafer have the same amount of wins vs FSU: 0. But if you follow an ACC team or the conference over the past 3 years - you'd probably have heard and/or read about BC moving in the right direction and those games vs FSU are always mentioned. The value in playing in a bowl at 6-6 is pretty high. The extra practices are great and the $ is good for the school and it's fun for the fans/players. But the icing on the cake is how you are talked about in the media and in recruits living rooms. It's probably oversized value for what it is (i.e. You can beat URI or LSU and it counts the same: 1 game on your way to 6)... But it's pretty sweet perception wise. [/QUOTE]
