How is this surprising?

 

The bowl games have lost their prestige. They are now just glorified exhibition games.

 

they always kinda were, mostly a showcase for the alumnis to go to

I disagree.

 

Bowl games like the Liberty, Gator, Sun & Peach had a certain heir to them.

 

Every game on New Year's Day was huge. They meant something. Now, that is not the case.

Maybe, but I remember in the old days in those bowl games, teams were giving their all to win.

 

I don't see that anymore.

 

We are lucky now if the players all show up. How seriously can the fans take it if it’s optional for players?

I agree fully, but I feel the same about every sport. 

 

My personal theory is sports were the best when I was 11, which gave me great champions around 1977-1978 in all sports.
