College football picked a bad year to add to its ever-growing list of bowl games, but of course, nobody anticipated a worldwide pandemic would affect the 2020 season at the time. If bowl games are to be played beyond those controlled by the College Football Playoff, the NCAA will have to make an adjustment to the eligibility standards for participating in those games.
There are 42 bowl games scheduled for this season, up two from last year. Assuming they can safely be played amid the coronavirus — yeah, I know about the danger of assumptions — that means 84 teams will be participating.
