Most Bowl Games Played All-Time (thru 2023 season)

Updated: 12/11/23 - Either Alabama or Michigan will have one more appearance added since one of them will play for the National Championship, and Texas could have one more added if they beat Washington and advance in the playoff. Nebraska has been stuck on 53 appearance since 2016 - which just baffles me.
