On the too many bowls thingy, I say no. I think it is just about right. A lot of schools who do not have a prayer at the NC trophy, have to be out there playing for something. That bowl win, gifts, ring, etc means a lot to these kids. It makes the kids feel special when they attend the bowl festivities. I have not missed a bowl game yet and as a viewer/fan I love getting to watch teams that I normally would not tune into.
