Come on, it's not like they're declaring both teams co-national champions for having made it to the incredibly prestigious Bahamas Bowl.  Instead, the bowl committee is helping these young men complete the journey to adulthood by showing them what a junket is.

So you're advocating the "trophy-for-everyone" approach?

Not trophy for everyone.  Just one more game, one more chance to play.  And a little extra adventure attached to it.

This is the funniest thing I've read in weeks.

I am; but I'm also an Illini fan and we have plenty of room in our trophy case. A bowl trip occurring more than once every decade is not asking for too much  ;D. More games, please!!!!!!  :sTiR:

This. Give the seniors one last chance to play. Yeah want a trophy, you've got to win though.

Um. Excuse me. *Pushes up glasses* But uh, Zamboni, technically, makes an ice *resurfacer*, not an ice maker.

Also, just because I didn't think Miami University was THAT bad this year (and for some reason, they don't call themselves Miami of Ohio...), the only 0-12 matchup would actually be Kansas vs. Central Florida.

I'm sure they'd give the trophy to the losing team as well, correct? I mean, anybody can go 1-12, but it takes talent and guts to go 0-13.
