Ballcoach is too humble to admit it, but years ago he was "almost hired" as a college coach.

That doesn’t say much. Some of the worst ideas I’ve ever heard were from college coaches.

That was the carrot being dangled around about going FBS. "You get to go to a bowl game.". That's about as much of a participation trophy as one could get.

March Madness is 68 teams while Bowl season for FBS is 80. There are 347 D1 basketball teams. There are 130 FBS teams.

Basketball: 68/347= .195
Football: 80/130= .615

So you think 19.5% of teams getting in is a participation trophy but 61.5% getting in is a hard-fought victory? Okay. :dontgetit
You are using someone else's argument. I don't believe in having all of these toilet bowls. At least half should be dropped. Most bowl games LOSE money for both teams playing. Many even lose money for the cities involved.

The bowl system is, six of one and a half dozen of the other.

But I think the number of bowls will increase before we see a decrease. The key to bowl games is the location, date and which 2 teams are playing. All must be managed carefully.
The often times stupid bowl tie ins, screw some bowls, the minute the 2 teams are announced. Not many fans get excited about a 6-6 team from ACC playing a 6-6 team from Big 10. (Just an example). I can't recall bowl tie ins from memory.
