Well the situation isn't reversed. They had a better league record. That's a fact. Don't know why people are losing their marbles when they wouldn't go to the game anyway. Hell most bitching don't go to the games any damn way. And financially it's little difference.Quote:

If we had the same sec record as aTm, we'd be in a NY6 bowl. Oh well, Memphis is probably the only game I'd attend anyway, so bring it on
What’s this financial difference? We sell out every bowl game. The stadium can only hold so many. If you’re talking TV rankings then maybe I understand. Still, not sure how many fans outside Sec are interested in aTm. I never watched an aTm game other than vs Texas before they joined the sec, and that was only if nothing else was on.Quote:

Revenue= more fans spending more money
For the 700th time for those of you that can't read, like yourself, we don't have the same LEAGUE record. They have a better one. It's a fact. And had they played KSU instead of Clemson, they would have a better overall record. But let's not let facts get in the way.Quote:

I didn’t realize it was all about conference record. I thought it was overall record. I guess I misunderstood. Stop being such a douche. You need some vagisil.Quote:

Don't the bowls have picking order? If it is Music City or Liberty I chose Liberty.
Although I hope it doesn't happen, I can see A&M getting the Outback over us. What I can't see is the Citrus picking UK over A&M causing A&M to drop to the Outback. They have the same conference record, A&M beat them head to head, played a tougher schedule (Bama, Clemson) and every loss is to a team going bowling. UK got the hell beat out of them by 5-win UT. Plus, a much larger national footprint and fan following in football.
