. I also realize that it is a way for the corps. to get free advertisement in the form of name dropping each time the bowl is referred to in the press and on the air.


That is it exactly. I don't like it either, but then again I'm watching the games on their dime.

That's just a sample of what to expect if 'Corporate America' gets control of college football. :shock:

Actually, the only bowls that don't have a sponsor:

Fort Worth (used to be Plains Capital, but they dumped it after low ratings)

Motor City Bowl (not positive if it is represented)

Independence Bowl

The Rose Bowl is the "Rose Bowl Game pres. by Citi", so in a way they are sponsored.
