A few weeks ago I posted about there probably being too many bowl games - I totally scooped ESPN on this with my mad analysis. I figured out that (at that time) there were not enough teams within enough wins to fill the bowls (based on current # of wins and projecting forward over time using kick-ass modeling skills). No I won't give you my secret sauce.
Now the pundits have finally figured this all out, and the boys in charge are making a big stink about it, saying they will let some bowl games "go dark" to slow down growth in games. Well, what the hell did you expect to happen?
