All corporate named bowls suck and the more prestigious the bowl, the worse it is when they get those stupid corporate names. It completely ruins the prestige IMO.

Chick-fil-a was the worst. I'm very glad they went back to Peach Bowl. Capital One, Tax Slayer, and Outback are all bad b/c those were bowls w/ recognizable names and now they are just crap.

It would be nice if the corporations would get some flak or push back from this. Names like the All State Sugar Bowl are fine. They put money up to get their name on there, etc. But the outback bowl or the capital one bowl are just a soulless corporate whore names for a bowl game.

Candy bowl. It's stupid and redundant. EVERY bowl is for candy.

Some reason that doesn't bother me. I agree with your point on peach bowl and the corporate sponsor names in general
