Notre Dame said "no thanks" to a bowl game and everyone has opinions. Monica and Karlee break down what actually happened, why being an independent team in college football is weird, and which bowl games are worth your time. They're ranking bowl games by entertainment value, explaining how playoffs work now versus 2014, and discussing this season's most unexpected NFL storylines.
