There are a lot of positive things about playing in a bowl game. For instance, teams in bowl games get extra time for practice and preparation. Bowl games are a great way to showcase a team and build their reputation. It’s also a chance for the team to potentially play an opponent they usually don’t get to play in a location that they usually don’t get to play.
But above all, there’s the swag.
Ah yes, bowl swag. Players are decked out with gear branded with the bowl logo and gifted items that will help them remember their postseason trip.
