Do you consider the CFP Final a "bowl" game?

Should our games in Tampa last year, and in Phoenix the year before, be included in our bowl record? Or should only the semi-finals be included?

They should count as bowl games.

technically not a bowl game, so no - but...

that does bring up another point - I think having the semi-finals in traditional bowl games takes away from the prestige of the bowl itself. Just call them the CFP semi-finals.
Bottom line is there are too many bowl games period. Would love to go back to just a handful and have them mean something again.

agree, to many bowls have taken the luster out of going to a bowl.

In the 2015 cfp we beat Oaklahoma in the Orange bowl and 2016 beat osu in the Fiesta. The national championship games also count as bowl games.

No...because every bowl game my husband has gone to and stayed the whole game we lost. When we went to the Orange Bowl and it was a playoff game, we won..and the time we beat Ohio State and he left early we won. So he has been perpetually banned from bowls and natties. We lost the natty he went to. I attend with friends now. You gotta take one for the team.

All that says is that the Fiesta Bowl is a bowl...which isn't in question.

Aren't there really 2 groups now?
Nov 14, 2017, 5:02 PM
|
|
The first is "post-season" play which includes ACC CGs, the CFPs, and the bowls.
The second is the "bowl" record which would include the semi-finals of the CFP as they are still designated bowl games.
