The New Year's Bowls show why the CFP is great

Rose Bowl: Oregon v Ohio State
Sugar Bowl: UGA v Notre Dame
Fiesta Bowl: Boise State v Penn State
Peach Bowl: Arizona State v Texas

If you replace "Peach" with "Cotton," the upcoming quarterfinals could have been major bowl matchups from 35 years ago.

As a lifelong college football fan, this is a dream come true.
