The Irish have decided to turn down a bowl after missing the playoffs. They join Iowa State and Kansas State in sitting out the bowl season.

So now we will have three 5-7 teams make a bowl. I wouldn’t be surprised if we have more.

Bowl games now only exist to give ESPN something to air in the second half of December. Just put them out of their misery.
 
I know ND are salty but this will become more and common because of the expanded playoff.

I've seen it mentioned on here a few times, but they need to work in the bowls during championship week or something to keep teams engaged. I don't know the answer - NIT-esque tourney, play-in games, etc - but it's only going to get worse.

Punishing the players and fans....is stupid! :rolleyes:

It’s throwing away an extra game and all that Bowl prep and a chance for players to get extra experience for the next season or make a final impression for the NFL.

What a bunch of crybabies.

BYU fans are ticked and were looking forward to the matchup too.

Looks like GT took the spot though and that could still be an entertaining game if neither team has opt outs.

I think teams who pull a stunt like ND should be punished for it.

Oh you are mad that you didn’t make the Playoff and just boycott the postseason?

How about this you are banned from post season participation for 5 years.

How about them apples?
 
Poor losers just taking their ball and going home.....quitters should be eliminated for 2 years from bowl or playoff games !! CFB has turned into a circus with nothing but monkeys as performers!
