College bowls

It used to be more centered around New Year's but now it's the holidays, it's the college bowl season.  Most of these post-season College Football games don't mean anything, except to the companies which sponsor the games.  These games have nothing to do with the NCAA, its all about money.  These games are important for coaching staffs to get their Student Athletes (players) and personnel a jump start on next season or for a new head coach to get to know his guys, or a swan song for some.  The college post-season can be a recruiting advantage as it enables programs to travel to different parts of the country and we get some non-triditional match-ups.  Some bowl match-ups are better than others, we get to see our favorite teams face-off against teams that the don't normally play.    I already talked about the one game that is meaningful, the National Championship Game which is a re-match of the LSU at Alabama game from a couple months ago.  This game should not be, LSU already beat Alabama on the road and now the have to do it twice in order to win a National Championship.
