    Damn, you'd think the advertisers would pay for lap dances for all. Fuck, think of all the money they spend on their advertisements.

    It’s the most wonderful time of the year.

    Just about every night there is either a college football game or an NFL game.

    Unless you are a Browns fan.....:--) ( said from a Steelers fan)

    Until we hit 12/23 I'm not much of a bowl game watcher.

    Many of the lower tier bowls are important to programs that desire to advance to the hierarchy of college football. They can be used as recruiting tools, as enticements for donors, or other positive statements about the university.

    One must take baby steps before they can run to the pinnacle of college football.

    The one cool thing is if you’re a big fan of xxx University it’s cool to see a unique match up.

    I think the most interesting one for me this year is LSU / Notre Dame.

    Here something more important than the bowl schedule, but a comparison between the two is a bit eye opening. This is based on last years graduation statistics since 2017 isn't in the books yet. The below are the top 25 teams in graduating football players. The stat (GSR) = Graduation Success Rate

    So here are the top 25 schools starting at #25:

    GSR: 77

    # 23. Colorado State
    GSR: 79
    # 22. West Virginia
    GSR: 79
    # 21. Syracuse
    GSR: 79
    # 20. Utah State
    GSR: 80
    # 19. UCF
    GSR: 81
    # 18. Boise State
    GSR: 81
    # 17. Iowa
    GSR: 82
    # 16. Northern Illinois
    GSR: 83

    The only advantages to going to a non-playoff bowl are recruiting possibilities and extra practice time.

    For the fans it sucks.

    I wonder how many Northwestern players have the opportunity to leave school early for a career in the NFL.....

    Dad,

    No idea, but interesting that only two of the top 25 were ranked in the final CFP top 10 poll. University of Miami and Penn State. Also, Army, Navy, and Air Force, 10-12.
