2023 And 2024 Bowl Games

[Anjdog2003]

With starting QB's and star players leaving their teams for the Portal or the NFL drafts it really screws up the Bowl games. Outside of Michigan Washington Texas and Alabama a lot of teams will not play with full strength. It will make me not watch most of the Bowl games including USC . College football is going in the wrong direction. What do you reprobates think?

I agree with you %100....

I don't know who is in on making the decisions around here but i want in on the party...there are more than a few folks that are higher than a kite. ..My first question to them would be...Do you really think it does the bowl games justice to play a #8 ranked Oregon team against a #18 fake ranked liberty?

[higgyburners]

if we lay 80 points on them would that make you sober

[Louie Detroit]

I never even heard of Liberty until a week or two ago.

I rarely watch the IDGAF Bowl games unless I think it will be a good game. The transfer portal and NIL have somewhat screwed up College Football

[lrobe22]

Yep. Bowl games outside of the playoffs are dog and pony shows. Nothing to take stock in.

[sublime1996525]

Yep. Everyone opting to not play makes the games hard to care about.

And more players will transfer. They have until the 4th of January. So basically if i can't start then i'll go somewhere else. A great foundation to build on in life.

Is it any surprise college football has gone this direction? So many players coming through the sport are all about me, me, me. It's no longer about the team. It's no longer about representing the university where you are receiving your education. It's all about the money.

The whole sport has been whored out for the almighty dollar.

[Anjdog2003]

You will see in the future with these contracts the young NFL players are getting, will make them say, why screw up my body i have enough money to last me the rest of my life. They'll play 4-5 years and quit.

It starts with the video-tapped commitments to a college, the entire family is present, the signee acts as though they just cured cancer, while knocking the hats of school not chosen to the ground.

NIL has changed all things, expect the bigger, wealthier schools to continue to dominate, as they can find a way for boosters to pay $1+M for any recruit they are pursuing.

Just an example:

Of course UMia, the ncaa's most-favorite target, is being investigated for NIL:

Sadly, of the 4 and 5-star recruits, less than 5% ever get a second NFL contract.

Or just sandbag through the entire term of their second contract, while taking half the year off for a toe injury.

ADog, how long do we have to wait for your handicapping GOLD??

Totally get the frustration about star players leaving for the Portal or NFL drafts, it's like musical chairs out there! Bowl games won't be the same without the usual suspects, but hey, that's the nature of college football, right? Gotta adapt and roll with the punches. Still gonna catch Michigan, Washington, Texas, and Alabama though – can't miss those showdowns!

It's a bummer when key players jump ship for the Portal or NFL drafts, making some matchups less exciting. I mean, who doesn't want to see teams at their full strength, right? But hey, change is constant, and college football's gotta roll with the punches. Still, I get the frustration. I'm a die-hard USC fan, and it's disheartening to think some games won't be as thrilling. Let's hope for some unexpected heroes stepping up! I stumbled upon this cool list of 90+ apps that supposedly pay real money in 2023. Has anyone tried them out https://wealthofgeeks.com? Looks interesting, might check it out myself. Any recommendations from you seasoned forum pros?
