In the current screwed system we are in, it makes sense to rather want a shot at Notre Dame than a Northwestern or Iowa...

Which brings in the real question: Are Bowls ethical? The playoff system would hold no bias to how good you once were, only how good you were that year. College Football is way to focused in on the wrong things such as money. Bowl Tie Ins are the DUMBEST thing ever. Alot of the teams I wish we could play you won't get to see because we are stuck with Wisconsin. (A team we've played as much in the past 5 years as a couple of SEC schools)
