Probably a rumor..... Not like the bowl committee would have to give back any money even if the NCAA did anything.
Yeah not sure why the bowl committee would care. Money is money even if they have to vacate the bowl game down the road.
Would only matter if the sanctions are announced before the bowl game. If it is a bowl ban, they might choose to take it this year instead of starting next year.
Still probably a rumor.
Let me clarify. I think they were concerned with sanctions coming soon and not being able to play in bowl game.
LOL the NCAA would not wait until a bowl selects them and then ban them from the bowl....
We beat that ass in Starkville and then they can't go to a bowl b/c of NCAA sanctions.
Oh, please let this happen.
Just lunch time banter. I have given up on them getting any sanctions. These damn rumors keep giving me hope. You would have thought by now that we would have heard something on the ACT stuff.
damn dude. you are better than this.
I think they usually get to chose to go ahead and take the banned or wait until the next season. It's what OSU did. They went to a bowl game at 6-6 and elected to take the bowl banned the next year. The kick in the nut was the next year was Urban"s first year and they went 12-0 and Bama got into the BCS NC game by default and won. I think that was the year they played ND.
To answer you question with what I think is, they already know their punishment and they are trying to keep it quiet so they don't lose their recruiting class and the committees know what sanctions are coming. They would have to know that.
anybody smell that?
I would think they would be more concerned with UNM's bowl showing last season and also the rumors that half thier team will be academically ineligable.
yeahhhhh- no. Cant see this as being a fear for the bowls.
I thought it was going to be about the "rebels" or "ole miss" or "spice" or "acid" or "fights" or something along those lines.
No troll, dumb ass. I've been on the boards for years. OdaMaeBrown, you've got 8 f'n post.
