The bottom line is the bottom line. College football has decided that it can live with the angst-ridden fans because, for now, all the numbers are good.

So, in other words, the entire SEC as a whole should boycot watching the Rosebowl (unless it's a NC game). If it's TV ratings should suddenly drop off, then would things change?

Now the Rosebowl can't be a NC game, so theirs no reason to watch it. I know I didn't last year when it was USC v. Illinois. Who in their right mind picked Illinois?

Illinois was runner-up in the Big Ten and since Ohio State was involved in the NC Game, Illinois received an automatic bid to the Rose Bowl.
