Lack of New Years Day Bowl Game on Network TV

[rainman306]

There use to be so many Bowl games on network tv on New Years Day -- now the only Bowl game that was on network tv was the Capial One Bowl game of Wisconsin vs. South Carolina.  The rest of the games are all on cable and mostly on ESPN.

Also, many Bowl games are now played either prior to or after New Years Day up to January 6.

I was surprised to see the Rose Bowl on ESPN. I thought that was one that was normally always on ABC.

Yes used to be a lot more games on local stations but not anymore.  Seems a lot of networks are going to cable. Another way of screwing the public and forcing us to pay for it.
