Relevant article justifying Cmac's decision and speculating that more may follow. Could be interesting to see what happens to this lucrative-for-everybody-but-the-players bowl system if more players decide to opt out.

Frankly, I've never been a big fan of the everybody and his dog should go to a bowl game philosophy. I think they should be reserved for the truly good teams, not just anyone who can slap together a 6-6 (or in some cases a 5-7) season. How good is truly good? Well, I'll leave that for the great minds in the NCAA to decide, but it sure ain't teams who go 6-6.
