With so many players opting out of bowls, should bowl match ups be redone since they are not the same team?

LSU starting quarterback and Heisman Trophy™ winner, Jayden Daniels has opted out of the ReliaQuest Bowl. Without Jayden Daniels, LSU is just not the same team they were when the ReliaQuest Bowl selected them. LSU is no longer worthy of a bowl of such prestige or the match up with the Wisconsin Badgers.

This is not the only example of an impact player opting out, but it’s possibly the most notable. I propose bowl games are adjusted based on the loss of players. It’s not fair to the poor TV networks and sponsors. It also robs deprives of competitive games that they rightfully deserve.
