I don't think we would go back to the Gator Bowl but who knows. If we can keep Bama close and then win Arkansas and UM, we probably finish in the top 15-20.

I'd be surprised if it's the Gator. That would be four times in the last ten years.
Doubt it's citrus at 8-4
Gonna be Nashville. Think LSU, KY and FL gonna be basking in the sunshine state this year.
I'm 45 minutes from the Gator Bowl - and even I don't want to go back there again.
The SEC office will negotiate with the bowls in our best interest.
I also have Gator Bowl fatigue. Due to my wife and my work schedule, we can go to Citrus, Outback, Gator, or Liberty. The Gator Bowl is the only one I would have to debate on.Quote:

Lsu & Ky are both in contention for NY6 bowlsQuote:

Me too. I just want the chance to beat the dog 17 out of a well regarded Big 10 teamQuote:

I could see Liberty really preferring MSU. We'll be the best team available and have a history of showing up for the Liberty and I don't know if anybody else will have such a strong preference for us. Probably our next best best would be Texas. A&M has been to Texas recently and Missouri went last year. Auburn will probably be desired by the Florida bowls and want to go to Florida rather than having the longer trek to Texas. Texas pushing hard for MSU might be the Texas Bowl's best bet, or they will be relying on a 7-5 USCe team to travel to Houston, which might be iffy, or Vandy, who I'm guessing none of the bowl games want.
Looking at each team:
A&M: Outback/Gator (they've done the other 4 Pool of 6 in the past 4 years)
USCe: Anything but Outback
Auburn: Any Bowl (went to Outback in 2015 but don't think Auburn or Outback will care)
Vandy: Any bowl (went to Liberty and Music City in 2011 and 2012)
MSU: Any bowl but Gator or Belk (Belk in 2015, Liberty in 2013, Music City in 2011)
Missouri: Any bowl but Texas
So, if they take proximity and recent appearances into account, I could see something like:
Outback: A&M
Gator: Auburn
Texas: MSU
Music City: Missouri
Liberty: Vandy
Belk: USCe
