It has become trendy for everyone who watches, follows, or analyzes college football to bemoan the number of bowl games that are played these days. Give any old-timer an opening when talking about bowls and he’ll be quick to note that, “Back in my day, we didn’t let half the teams in the nation go to a bowl.” For those of you who are of that inclination I ask, given that we are now in an era when the Texas Tech football program has been to just two bowls in the last six years, wouldn’t any postseason appearance be something worth appreciating?
