POLL OF THE DAY

CU - and other teams from the former Pac-12 - will retain the bowl alliances in 2026-27. Thoughts?

Nice. The bowl alliances from the Pac-12 (San Antonio, San Diego, Las Vegas) are better than the Big 12 (Houston, Memphis, Orlando)
We can file this under the "not relevant" category. CU is so far from worrying about bowl sites that this is a non-story. Call me in November when the Buffs get to six wins - then I'll care
I'm surprised that the conferences weren't able to get this worked out. Where are the current "Pac-12" bowl eligible teams going to go? Sorry, CSU, your goal of getting to the Idaho Bowl
