    Bowl news

    Looking more and more like Pitt in the Gator, if Ohio State is not in the CFP. The Rose looks like they are going to pick Penn State over Ohio State. This puts Ohio State in the Orange, and according to the contract if a Big 10 teams goes to the Orange, they forfeit their spot in the ReliaQuest to the ACC. This sets up SCar vs Notre Dame in Tampa. Pitt is 8-4 and gets the Gator vs us. I've seen this mentioned by 3 different outlets today. North Carolina, should they lose to Clemson has also been mentioned.

    State vs NC would be a fun game. They play zero defense but their offense is insane. Pitt is pretty meh.

    I feel like Jacksonville gets a bad rap. I don't really have a preference between Nashville, Jacksonville, and Tampa except that Tampa is the easiest to fly to.

    Nashville is great, and I'd to see a bunch of State fans up here for a few days, but man it's cold up here this time of year!!! Already getting flurries and freezing rain a few times. It's just cold!!!!

    Yea, I had fun at the Music City Bowl in 2011, but it was cold. Gator Bowl in 2010 it was actually pretty cold the night before the game, but by game time I think we were in short sleeve shirts. Even the night before, not sure it was really cold or if it was just colder than we were prepared for.

    Yeah, moved down from my next to the top row, Bob Uecker seats bought through the Bulldog Club at Nashville to 8 of the 20K or more empty seats below us to keep from freezing in the cold wind. Bowl seating is like our problems with men's BB in the Hump. Corporations buy good seats and no one shows up. Can't see buying tickets through Bulldog Club for Bowls again unless this has changed. Some sort of change needed.

    My brother in law and his dad, ( both retired now) figured all the structural steel in the current stadium. When I told him at church that I new domed stadium was in the works, he was shocked and said that we worked on that thing for over a year. State Folks.

    All I've been hearing people say is that USCe is tired of Tampa and that they wanted the Gator. I guess the possibility of ND in Tampa makes them less tired of it.

    Yeah, you never know what you're gonna get in Memphis this time of year. I have been to 0 deg. Liberty Bowls and of course last year vs TTech it turned out 72+ degrees and everybody wearing shorts. Too bad the end result left a terrible taste in my mouth.

    That's back when there were far fewer bowls and they used to mean something more. Heck, one of the Kang's teams got left out one year at 7-4.

    1997

    We beat SEC Champions Auburn 20-0 on their own field and still didn't go to a bowl. There was.literally nowhere to go. All Pitt had to do was lose, but they won.

    Bowls didn't mean any more then than they do now. The other thing that has changed is people and their entitlements. People have more entertainment options now and just aren't as interested.

    Not on December 17, interrupting our recruiting cycle and having less time to practice, which our offense needs.
