Nothing wrong with that...nope.  |
did you just start watching college football this year? That's about as basic as TD's are worth 6pts, and FGs 3.
Every bowl since the history of bowls uses criteria like if a school travels well as part of their criteria. Except for the current 1 vs 2 that is and has always been part of the process.
Unless you want to subsidize and back all the bowls, then they have a reality of financing a bunch of expenses. Sorry it's just real life.
And the other bowls outside of 1 vs 2 aren't about ranking or determining a NC. And enough about the kids, they aren't forced into the school they play for, they choose. So when choosing between Texas and Toledo they know full well the implications of choosing both.
