Similar to our game in Ireland, the chick fil a games in Atlanta. Kinda like invitationals, early season “classics” in college hoops. The bigger bowls will be reserved for postseason, playoffs, and top 25 teams. For example, if you miss the playoffs but are in the top 25, you may get invited to the Alamo Bowl, Citrus, Pop Tarts etc. A bowl like the Birmingham Bowl would get moved to Week 0 or Labor Day weekend, and featuring previous year respectable/upcoming year promising teams from the ACC/SEC. There would obviously be no opt outs, and I think you’d sell more tickets than normal end of year meaningless bowls since fans would be optimistic. Just a thought. That would obviously be a major task and shift in CFB.</blockquote>
