Possible bowl opponents for OU?

They're 4-7..... bout to be 4-8 hopefully.

That's okay. It's more of a revenge thing, you know. Riley's new team getting shellacked by his old team.

I'd rather see USC in the Tidy Bowl and win the Magic Cleaning Wand Award.

Just bring back the original 12 or 13 Bowl games and be done with them.

If we go back to the "original" wouldn't that just be the Rose Bowl? Seems like when I was a kid, and there where only 3 channels, there was the Rose, Cotten, Sugar and Orange Bowls.

There's several before the 70's. Bluebonnet bowl was in the 60's too I thought. Here's a list

When was Vanderbilt or Kansas playing for a National Chambership?

We now have different levels, not all conferences are Div I teams.


As it is now, idiot sports writers, TV networks and politics determine who plays who and where.

There are 130 division 1, aka FBS teams. You want to make a league of only 64 of them. Who picks? My point with ks and vandy is there will always be door mats. What’s your plan for that, relegation? Swap out the bottom 4 in each division each year for the top 16 from the remaining teams…

I think we have a local HS that has 11 guys that will play'em. Should be close game

Now you are gettting it.
except, swap bottom 2 get moved, every year. A team that is bottom 3, 2 years in a row, gets moved.

Or they can use the current system of how many viewers can a team attract including sponsors......

So, it is $$$$ and politics, not determining the best team, true National Champion?

Yep. Bama, ND, Bois St and few others could be 4-6 and still play on National TV in a minor bowl.
