I hope the Iowa fans enjoyed the Rose Bowl Parade and getting out of Iowa.

Worst bowl season ever. Closest game was Houston 38-24 in the Peach Bowl

Last night's games were definitely awful. Ratings took a hit, too.

Blowouts or either a need for a 8 team playoff.

Why? Seriously then you make the OSU/MSU game pointless. Four is just fine, 6 at the very most

Is this a joke? 34-6 at half time? I'm to the point where I'm fed up with how bad these bowls are

Everyone who lost in their conference championship game has lost their bowl game. There's no need for an 8 team playoff. There wasn't even a need for 4 teams this year. Bama and Clemson would have been enough.

No it wouldn't. League title on the line....NFL careers and draft statuses to uphold..... Seed for playoff on the line. 8 team playoff wouldn't diminish anything.

I'm talking about the outcome or the only thing that matters. But I do like the four and how it rotates perfectly for bowls

uh yeah. I was never an advocate of the playoffs. There's no reason for it. ...even if Ohio State was ranked 4th and won the National championship by winning two games.

Bowl season was way better without the playoffs in my opinion.

I will give you this. Look how diminished some of these games have became. No way in hell Oklahoma State should be in the Sugar Bowl. IMO they shouldn't have created a title and just left it to a bowl game instead

What's everyone's opinion of the NC next monday? Will you watch? Do you care?

I might watch bits and pieces at most. Don't care who wins. I'm hardly anti-SEC but I'm getting tired of Alabama.

I'll watch. Not really interested, but I'll still watch. I think Clemson can win. They are the kind of offense that gives Bama problems. Plus Clemson has a very good front 7 too.

These games aren't diminished by the playoff. They didn't mean anything before.

How was bowl season better? The bowls have always been useless. The only thing it does is allow the top teams to play other conferences.

Didnt know until last night that the PAC12 and the SEC haven't played in a Bowl Game since 2002. This does not include Title games.

I don't need them to be useful. I only need them to be entertaining. In the end it's just entertainment anyway.

The level of fraud perpetrated by the Big 10 this season makes Bernie Madoff smile somewhere.

Just completely exposed for being what we knew it was.

At worst the B1G will be 5-5. Not bad.
