Is it just me or is there an abundance of players (many who are starters) that aren’t playing in their team’s bowl game because they have entered the Transfer Portal? For example, Ohio States QB who lead the team to an 11-1 record went into the Transfer Portal and isn’t playing in the Cotton Bowl. As a fan, I would be really pissed that he wasn’t playing in the bowl game for my school. They aren’t precluded from playing, are they? It’s bad enough when a player decides not play because they don’t want to risk injury prior to the NFL combines/draft, but I can at least understand that when millions of dollars are on the line. Are they afraid their transfer opportunities will evaporate if they are injured in the bowl game? Just another new reality of college football that is ruining the game.
