One of the books a decade or so ago had a fairly thorough summary of Virginia Tech's expenses going to a minor bowl. By the time all the players, band members, important people had paid for hotel rooms for a lot more than two days, transportation, food, and misc., the school lost money, quite a bit of money.
The swag bags are good for the 'big' games. Not so much for lesser games.
It was their decision. We probably ought to say OK, they are adults and entitled to decide how they want to spend this December.

I would take away scholarships from every player that voted to not play.

Some of those guys may never play football again. Why would you turn it down?

This was not abnormal many years ago. Teams would refuse a bowl game for diff reasons. Some even refused the first invitation hoping to get a better one and missed out. I forget the exact teams but just saying.

What kind of school leadership even gives the players this option?
Welcome to college football in 2025. Better than accepting it and then having > 50% opt out in my opinion.

the Cotton Bowl decided to take Notre Damned over LSU
This still makes me angry. LSU was 9-1-0. Notre Dame was 8-1-1. The only winning team ND beat that year was Air Force 6-4-0.

I don’t get it. Don’t play bc your coach retired?

And in reading that part of why he is retiring is he didn't like the current landscape of college football.
