Yep. by Twinkie the Kid

Seriously. The bowl "name" doesn't matter any more. Why would a win over ISU, UNC, or Oregon be anything to hang your hat on? Because it was in the Orange Bowl? Big fucking deal. A 4-loss Virginia team made it to that bowl last year. It's a joke.

Michigan fans were crowing about Brady Hoke leading them to a Sugar Bowl victory. They beat a shitty Virginia Tech team that was blown out by Clemson in the ACC title game and ranked in the high teens. Who gives a shit?

I'm supposed to be impressed by Paul Chryst because he handled Western Michigan in a "Major Bowl." Who gives a shit about that?

Opponent matters.

Edit: to be clear, had Kelly gotten favorable matchups in "major bowls" against middling conference runner-ups (or worse), I would not be impressed had he won the game, and I sure as hell wouldn't care about a "major Bowl" win over a shit opponent.
