Bowl season was outstanding. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
There has been hand-wringing from critics across the country, from national pundits to even our own Freddie Maggard. Opt-outs, the transfer portal and coaching carousel left many college football fans jaded this bowl season. “The bowl games don’t mean as much.” This generalization may apply to some teams in certain situations, but all-in-all, the 2022 bowl season produced excellent football games more times than not.
More than 50% of the games in the 2022 bowl season were one-score games. As expected, the best were saved for last.
