NCAA imposes 3 year moratorium on new Bowls

So the NCAA has put on hold adding any new games until at least the 2019 season at the earliest.

Brett McMurphy Reporting

Charleston, Myrtle Beach, and Austin were all preparing to add games this year on top of the current ones.

Frankly my #Hottake is to say F that. There is no such thing as too many bowls, or too much football.

I will not be happy until every single FBS team is in a post season game against a similarly performing foe. Watching 0-12 Kansas play 0-12 UCF last year could have been one of the best moments of the season, those kids are absolutely as competitive as anyone else and they would have left everything on the field to get that one win.

So what if its the week before Christmas at 8pm on a Tuesday, was there something else ESPN should have been showing instead, maybe the same Sports Center for the 3rd time in a row?

So long as ESPN continues to want to foot the bill for the events(and despite the title sponsor ESPN does have a controlling interest in most of the lower bowls) then I say let them play. This isn't reducing the prestige of the NY6 games, Tulane and WMU going at it in South Florida isn't going to be confused for the Orange Bowl, its just another game we get to enjoy that is absolutely meaningful to its participants and thus worth enjoying and made better for it.
