Amazing how the overall attitudes have changed in the past 10 years.

Fournette got serious grief, and I mean major grief, for skipping the bowl and he was a Top 3 draft pick.

Now….. everyone thinks it’s more than fine to skip a bowl game and expected.

Just an observation.

It's accurate. My best guest is that was in Year 3 of the playoffs. The public/fan/player interest for non-playoff bowls has continued to wane each year since the inception of the playoff. My hunch is that when the playoff expands, it will wane even more. May not be apples to apples, but the NIT used to be nice consolation to the NCAA now teams turn down the invitation. Perception changes over time.
