Message: [QUOTE="JoeSU, post: 1599972, member: 309"] Nobody complains about the plethora of early-season basketball tournaments. They provide some interesting OOC match ups that would otherwise never occur. Some of them (like the Paradise Jam and Gulf Cost Showcase) involve teams that have minimal national significance. Personally, I look forward to some of the football bowl games around the holidays. The minor bowls provide some intriguing match-ups... Temple-Toledo...Pitt-Navy...UNC-Baylor... and the list goes on. I think the prestige of the bowls speak for themselves. I also fear that if you raise the bar for bowl eligibility (to say, 8 games) it will encourage teams to water-down their OOC schedules. Just my opinion... [/QUOTE]
