I hope it DOES become a trend, because College Football, the playoff, the committees etc all need to be taken on a boat, tied to a 500,000 lb anchor and sent to the deepest, darkest, coldest, recesses of hell to die a slow death. I will roflcopter if in the next few years the projected top draft picks sit out their bowl games - I can already see Kirk and his gang of dickweeds trying to spout off about integrity, brotherhood, love of the game blah blah blah. Fuck the universities. These student athletes generate 100's of millions of dollars for them, and in return they get an education (debatable at some schools) and the opportunity to bang a few hot sorority girls. If they were 18 year old Kobe Bryants, they can bang whoever the fuck they want AND make tons of money.
I love college football (its obvious, right?), but it's been in a weird state for a while now, and every time they try to fix it they only fuck it up more. How funny would it be if the thing that slowly tears it apart are the student athletes refusing to participate in meaningless bowl games while trying to protect themselves for their real careers. Most of these guys will never sniff the NFL - but for the big dogs, there are only so many miles you can put on a body.
In fact, Okie State has 2 or 3 guys that I'm sure will get drafted in the late 1st/early 2nd rounds in the next two years and I genuinely wouldn't give two shits if they sat out the fucking Alamo Bowl, or the Sugar Bowl or whatever. If it was a playoff game, maybe (ok definitely)
