What used to be considered the purpose of the bowl games?
Exhibition games with participating teams' payouts
Scouting event for NFL teams
Fundraisers for participating schools
Awards ceremonies for best teams
Answer
Bowl games used to be considered exhibition games with participating teams' payouts. This means that they were not considered to be as important as regular season games, and the teams that played in them did not receive as much money for doing so. However, in recent years, bowl games have become more important, and the teams that play in them now receive more money.
