In this case, I think it's safe to assume both.
I'm not trolling. You're deluded. I guess it depends on how you define "VERY good bowl."

Holiday Bowl payout: $2,130,000; Sugar Bowl payout: $17,000,000; Feista Bowl payout: $17,000,000.

The major bowls are played on January 1 or thereafter, and have traditionally featured conference champions and, lately, non-BCS undefeateds. The Holiday was a real backwater bowl in 1984. Just look who came to play BYU. It was only six years old in 1984.
