The guys who celebrate “Mr. Irrelevant,” the last pick in the NFL Draft, have announced the Irrelevant Bowl, featuring the worst 2 teams in college football next year.

Bowl is looking for a venue.

This year, it would have been 2-10 Vanderbilt facing 1-11 Akron.

Who's ready for some bad football?

Official website now up.

That game would have more talent than the Georgia/Florida state bowl game

Can’t be worst than these glorified Junior Varsity games we get with backup QBs, interim Coaches, and the top guys either transferring or going pro

But ultimately, the Irrelevant Bowl is all about the teams and the players aiming for that one shot at glory that eluded their grasp during the regular season. With the world watching, winning team players could join such players as Marty Moore, Mike Green, Jim Finn, David Vobora, Ryan Succop, Chad Kelly, and Brock Purdy, who parlayed their “Mr. Irrelevant” status into NFL success. And if the NFL isn’t in the cards, having that one night of glory is a priceless memory for those who will raise their unique Irrelevant Bowl trophy at the end of the game.

According to 247Sports, at least 378 players had opted out from the 82 teams participating in bowl games since mid-December. “It’s not likely there would be any players who would decide to opt-out of the Irrelevant Bowl,” Englebrecht said.

If they truly want bad football all they have to get the HBCU teams with worst records.

Condon can bring back his SWAC / MEAC sloppy football report.

Needs to be played in the parking lot next to the stadium, right before the championship game.

Seems like a no brainer to have this played at the nfl hall of fame stadium, and have it sponsored by Charmin or some other TP brand for the “toilet bowl”

I would consider that an insult if I was a player on one of the worst 2 teams. Most of them would opt out.

I'd watch it if they had it though.

Would teams actually play in it?

Would probably depend on the payout I’d think. If the athletic departments could make a little money, coaches could get another month of practices for their teams, might be worth it.

Um, Akron won 2 games. They weren't even the worst team in their own division.
