Tradition is good. There is nothing wrong with traditions. My family has many that i cherish and wouldn't want to see change.
However, the Rose Bowl allowed tradition to cheat college football fans out of a great game. Can you imagine a GA/USC Rose Bowl. If that would have happened we would be one step closer to knowing who is the best team.
Instead they chose IL and they were humiliated. Illinois is a great team and would have done great against many other teams. But by their commitment to tradition over good football we still have no answer to who might be the best and we have a good team who has been utterly humiliated and may take a while to recover from it.
