    Not between the Outback, Gator, Music City, Liberty, and Texas, which makes it all the more egregious that the SEC is allowing this to happen when they could easily send A&M to the Gator and all is well.

    By resume .. I think it's a toss up. By eye test, I think we'd destroy TAM second go round too. But there is a part of me that wonders what happens if our FL game offense shows up. But I do believe strongly we're pretty far past the FL game offense.

    And it’s also a fact we are a much better team than them. Game was never close and we got better after that.
    It's all about money, and they will generate more. We should be mad at our coaches for not getting us to a NY6

    Honestly, it doesn’t matter if it’s the outback or the maxi pad bowl. Anything less than a NY6 bowl was a failure with this team. We lost at least 2 games we shouldn’t have and now we will suffer the consequences. I’m going to the game regardless, unless it’s in Memphis, but carry on.

    I think it's a draw at best. They went 5-3 in the league. We played them at home I think sec record counts

    We need to get Longhorn to start a bowl game so we can eat steak.

    I personally put the Liberty right above the B'ham Bowl. If you don't make the playoffs or NY6, one of the best things you get from a lower bowl is a chance for one more win and especially the extra practice time for the team.

    You're not getting it. When the conference is stating that the Outback, Gator, Music City, Liberty, and Texas Bowls are all on the same level, why is the Outback getting preference?

    If we make less money for the Outback, then your just pushing the less money to Music City, which they say is equal.

    The entire system is a complete joke. MSU fans should boycott the bowl game whenever it is, unless it's the Outback.

    They got to play South Carolina while we had to play Florida.

    So you think the Outback takes us with A&M's resume?

    If we were 5-3 in the league and they were 4-4 and he same thing happened you would complain and I would side w you. I normally enjoy your posting, but we will agree to disagree, I'm done with this one. Now start another thread about something else.

    Agree to disagree.

    Same overall record and we won on the field. Played different conference schedules that determined a 1 game difference.

    It only sucks because we are a better team than A&M. We’ve proven that. But the bowl gives their preference, the SEC usually works it out, and our school has a preference too. It’s all about money for the bowl cities and ticket sales. Ain’t nobody wanting teams from MS. We po as hell!
