Happy New Year, Conference USA! There were 35 bowl games played this past season, and I managed to watch most of them for at least one or two quarters or in their entirety. Having an office pool jackpot at work made all of the games intriguing to those who paid into it...But...???

How would you grade the overall level of excitement of this bowl season, and which 5 bowl games to you, were the most exciting, memorable and entertaining?

Also, which 5 did you find the least entertaining, interesting or endearing?

For whatever the reason(s), they're yours to claim in these regards. Please to share them with us here, I'm working on mine as we speak, and hopefully will post them this evening or tonight. In the meantime, thank you for participating, & have a great weekend.

I didn't find Mississippi State stomping us all that endearing

Exciting/memorable/entertaining

1. Auburn-FSU
2. Michigan State-Stanford
3. Duke-Texas A&M

Good morning. I'm sorry, I had all but forgotten that I'd posted this thread, had a lot of activity in the last couple of weeks, including one of officiating over 20 basketball games.

Those of you who offered up, I appreciate it, here are mine:

My 5 best:
1. New Orleans Bowl
2. BCS Title Game
3. Military Bowl
4. Chick Fil-A Bowl
5. Sugar Bowl (thank you, Oklahoma!)

5 Worst
1. Liberty Bowl (for obvious reasons)
2. Armed Forces Bowl (for obvious reasons)
3. Las Vegas Bowl - Fresno State did not bring the fight at all in this game
4. Outback Bowl - No drama or intrigue whatsoever, kind of lethargically played game.
5. Hawai'i Bowl - Worst performance by a Boise State team that I had ever seen.
