In most cases, yes. But this one had a lot of meaning. It would have assured a Top 25 final ranking, which would have also got us ranked to start the next season. It would have got us to 10 wins for the first time since 1981. It was a national TV game against a P5 team, good exposure in a traditional bowl. so this bowl, more than any in recent years, had a lot of meaning. Similar to the Pinstripe bowl in 2016. Losses in both of these bowls prevented top 25 finishes and took a lot of buzz off the upcoming season. Remember college football is all about buzz and perception.
