Kalen DeBoer was asked if Alabama football would have declined a bowl game invite if the Crimson Tide did not make the College Football Playoff.
This question stems from multiple programs across the country choosing to decline bowl game invites. Those programs include Notre Dame, Auburn, Iowa State, Kansas State and several others.
“Nall, we had never had that conversation, nope,” DeBoer said.
Teams are choosing to skip bowl season for a variety of reasons.
