I'm not feeling the warm and fuzzies about the gator.

I would rather play notre dame in Jacksonville on a Friday than Illinois in Tampa on a Monday, but Tampa weather will be much nicer. Our crowd will definitely be much better in Jacksonville just because of the date and opponent though.
And thus, why I don't feel good about the gator.

Yea other than the opponent I would much rather go to Tampa. Much better location. The date kind of sucks for a lot of people in Tampa, but for me personally I’m gonna be able to make it. According to David Murray, the South Carolina administration wants Tampa but the fanbase is vehemently against going back to Tampa again so they are gonna request Gator bowl as their #1 and they will for sure get it. I don’t see the conference letting anyone jump us for Tampa. Ole Miss just went to Tampa 2 years ago and we are a more attractive bowl opponent. They aren’t going to allow a 6 loss florida to jump us in my opinion.

The matchup is meh but the city and trip if you decide to go is the best thing available in my opinion. I’d much rather be somewhere it’s 80 degrees than 50, but that’s just me. If you aren’t going to the game then yea it’s meh.

Other than the game I enjoyed the Outback Bowl. Definitely one of the better bowl trips I've been on.
Would definitely go back.
It's not that far from Orlando if some of our fans want to do Disney/Universal.
Tampa was pretty cool. Ybor City was nice except for those chickens running around everywhere.
