If he tears his ACL in a meaningless exhibition are you going to make sure he's set up financially? I assume you made sure Jake Butt was good to go after he lost his 1st round status to an ACL in a non-playoff bowl game right?

I'm not sure what you mean. I'm not sure you even know what you mean. This is a meaningless game, as is every bowl that isn't part of the playoff

It counts on record and affects ranking. It's a legitimate game. Based on your criteria, like 99% of games are meaningless. And why does the championship have meaning, because of a shiny trophy?

You could say that about a lot of games once teams have effectively been eliminated from the playoffs.

It's a national championship which is meaningful for any college football player. The fricking Camping World Toilet Bowl means jack shite to anyone, including 90% of the players probably

How is the playoff any different from what the BCS was?

A good Citrus Bowl for Kentucky likely gives them a recruiting boost. And that means quite a bit when you’re trying to build something.

That said, I wouldn’t have blamed Snell or Allen for not playing. I do appreciate that they are because they feel like they have unfinished business.

Those are scheduled games. These are one-off extras played a month after the season ends for no other reason than to make a sponsor money while giving the players an extra chance to get hurt for $100 bucks in camping world coupons. If you can't see the difference then you're either being willfully obtuse or are just too stupid to reason with

Doubtful. Maybe to some kid who'll never suit up again. To guys who have a professional future? They'd be idiots to risk injury for this dumb shite
