Based on these expert predictions it appears we are going to Vegas, Houston, Memphis, Nashville, Birmingham, Tampa, Orlando, or Jacksonville. Me being just a message board poster, I never could have narrowed it down like that.

[DesotoDog1967]

Well it better be one step above OM in a better locale and time

You Win!!!! I read on here about the rumor mill saying we don't travel well and don't sell tickets. Maybe some years, but overall Msu fans travel well.

[confucius say]

Playoff and NY6
Citrus

Group of 6. But Outback/Reliaquest and Gator are above the music city, liberty, Texas, and Vegas. Don't care what the league says, we all know it. The only way we should drop below the Gator is if we requested music city. Otherwise, we got screwed.

Also, the times are wacky this year because of new years being on a Sunday and not competing with nfl plus having the playoffs on Saturday. Even the dang sugar bowl is a noon game.

Reliaquest's time slot sucks... it's during citrus and cotton

[msudawg1200]

If I were listing priorities.
1. FL bowl
2. Anywhere but Las Vegas

I wouldn't mind Vegas, but it's the date, December 17. It's going to be against a pretty good, ranked PAC 12 team like Oregon State or UCLA. I just wish it was on the date it was last year, December 30. The Vegas had always been the ABC prime time game on the Saturday before Christmas. That's when it was a PAC 12/MWC tie in. The date changed last year when it became a Big 10/SEC vs PAC 12 game. I figured t would've stayed that way. For years SEC fanbases were clamoring the SEC to get a bowl with a PAC 12 team preferably in Vegas. They do, but now nobody wants to go, and I get it because of the date affecting recruiting and fewer practice days. Just change the date, and it's all good.

Yea putting all three of those at the same time was dumb

Based on what? Which city you had rather visit? If payout=prestige then the Texas Bowl is exactly equal to the Outback and better than the Gator.

[DesotoDog1967]

https://businessofcollegesports.com/college-football-playoff-payouts/#bowl-payouts-2022-23

Vegas payout is 2.9mil. Orange Mound bowl is 4.7

[Mjoelner34]

https://businessofcollegesports.com/college-football-playoff-payouts/#bowl-payouts-2022-23

Vegas payout is 2.9mil. Orange Mound bowl is 4.7

Speaking of payouts, is this correct regarding the SEC? The participating team gets 30% of the payout and the rest is split equally between each team and the league office. I know it's all split equally but I'm not sure of the % the participating team gets to keep.

[confucius say]

Based on what? Which city you had rather visit? If payout=prestige then the Texas Bowl is exactly equal to the Outback and better than the Gator.

Based on the fact that sec teams 4 through 6 (or 5-7 if we get four NY6 teams) go to the citrus, Outback, and gator since this citrus plus pool of 6 system started. Absent a team requesting a lesser bowl, the Florida bowls trump the TN bowls and Texas bowl and Vegas.

Will be interesting to see if altered payouts change that

[Coach34]

I'm going to agree with McMurphy

Tampa vs Illinois for us
SC wants ND so that will put them in the Gator
Heard early on Kentucky wanted Music and so did they
UPig in Liberty
Probably Mississippi to Texas

[Quaoarsking]

The 2 ESPN guys make different picks:

Bonagura: Mississippi State vs. Oklahoma State in Texas Bowl
Schlabach: Notre Dame vs. Mississippi State in Gator Bowl

[Todd4State]

When it comes to bowls I trust McMurphy the most.

[Mjoelner34]

Regardless of potential opponents, I would do the following if I were in charge:
LSU: Citrus
USCe: Gator
MSU: Outback
UM: Texas
UK: Music City
UPIG: Liberty
UF: Vegas
MIZZOU: Birmingham

[Commercecomet24]

Yep. McMurphy knows his stuff. Follow his Twitter today, and he'll be putting out bowl matchups before they are officially announced.

[msudawg1200]

LSU vs Purdue in the Citrus
Florida vs Oregon St in the Vegas

[Tater]

Even he's acknowledging it's a shitshow right now.

Yep. "Many moving parts & some decisions still to be made w/in SEC & ACC that could impact multiple bowls"

[99jc]

i will be at any bowl if we play Notre damn

[msudawg1200]

Yep. "Many moving parts & some decisions still to be made w/in SEC & ACC that could impact multiple bowls"

I think it's mostly Notre Dame holding stuff up. They are deciding where they want to go either the Gator, Cheeze It, or Holiday. Wherever they go is going to shuffle things around like us and SC.

[Goldendawg]

6-6 teams should shut up and be happy to go anywhere. Adding MO to the SEC was a big mistake. They bring nothing to the table except the St Louis &s KC tv markets. Their culture is not like the rest of SEC schools.

Isn't ND QB in portal. If so, does he play in bowl?

[msudawg1200]

He's not playing in a bowl

[Goldendawg]

They are another bama type "entitled" team in their own eyes. 8-4 and no starting QB, so what?

[msudawg1200]

No doubt

[starkvegasdawg]

Plantation in the TX bowl vs TX Tech.

[msudawg1200]

Plantation in the TX bowl vs TX Tech.
And they are pissed. They actually thought they were going to bump us out of a Florida bowl. The SEC and our athletic department put them in their place.

[BeardoMSU]

Plantation in the TX bowl vs TX Tech.

Haha. Yuck.

[CaptainObvious]

I?m gonna be pissed if Ole Miss wins and goes 9-4 and gets ready-ranked. And we lose and go 8-5 and get unranked!

[starkvegasdawg]

McMurphy saying Reliaquest bowl down to us and USCe.

Opponent will be Illinois.

[Tater]

State either to Reliaquest (Outback) vs. Illinois

or

Gator vs. UNC

[msudawg1200]

McMurphy saying Reliaquest bowl down to us and USCe.

Worried Kentucky is going to frick up the Gator. They are bitching about the MCB being at the same time as their basketball game. Boo freaking hoo. If this happens we need to pound their asses into oblivion next year.

[Quaoarsking]

North Carolina is allowing 438 PYG this year. Illinois is allowing 264.

[starkvegasdawg]

KY to music city.

[Really Clark?]

Kentucky vs Iowa in Music City

[msudawg1200]

Kentucky vs Iowa in Music City
Thank God. They played in the Citrus last year. That and the basketball thing had me scared.

[starkvegasdawg]

USCe in the gator vs Notre Dame

[starkvegasdawg]

Outback it is.

[Really Clark?]

We going to ReliaQuest!

[Commercecomet24]

Us against Illinois in the reliaquest

[msudawg1200]

Fat Bert and the Illini

[MagicDawg]
