Stupid move, I don't care what the circumstances are. First of all, why do this to your seniors? Secondly, why give up a month of extra practice for the underclassmen and greyshirts that non-bowl teams aren't allowed to have? Thirdly, even Notre Dame at this point can't afford to pass up the recruiting boost that a bowl game can give you.

Agree dumb move to turn down a bowl.

For years, Notre Dame refused to play in bowls. The Irish played in the Rose Bowl in 1925, then didn't appear in another bowl until coach Ara Parseghian finally persuaded the university to let the ninth-ranked Irish play top-ranked Texas in the 1970 Cotton Bowl.

Wow! Never knew that
