A Boca Bowl loss or win does little to nothing for your program if its 21-20. No one really notices that. But getting blown out, that gets peoples attention more. Bad attention. Also, a string of bowl losses starts to become extraordinary. Add to that string that they were blow outs and it becomes a story.
There is one more reason it means something. If you keep winning the MAC and then losing to everyone you play from the Sun Belt or CUSA, it indicates that the MAC was weak and takes some of the shine off of the MAC title.
