ACRC Bowls Taking Shape
One of the big ideas behind the ACRC affiliation of conferences is to set up Bowl Games rather than a championship tournament.
This, say supporters of the idea, makes life easier in that a) the top team is probably known anyway; b) knowing where you’re going means you can plan more in advance; c) it allows conference play to go further into November.
