    Why would a 7 win OM team go to the Music City Bowl over an 8 win Vandy?

    I would actually rather OM go to the Music City over having a recruiting party at the Liberty

    The bowl gets their pick. Music City would pick OM over Vandy because of the fans OM would bring. I think the Liberty Bowl would pick us over Vandy.

    This may be true, but if Vandy has 8 wins, I don't think the Liberty Bowl will have that choice. Not sure they can take a 6 win team over an 8 win team. Vandy would be pissed about that, and rightfully so.

    Bowls are all about the money. They want a fan base that travels well.

    Yea, but I think the SEC has rules that keep this from happening.

    They can only pick in their order. Liberty is down at the bottom. If the SEC doesn't have enough teams to fill all their bowls the Liberty will get to go else where.

    They cant pick a 6 win team over an 8 win team

    Vandy and Georgia are likely to have 8 wins
    OM 7 wins
    State 6 wins

    BHam is our only destination, Music City has decide whether they want Vandy or OM

    Because Vandy is about 15 minute drive with traffic from that side of Nashville.

    I'd much prefer the BBVA Compass to the Liberty. Get to play on Saturday instead of Tuesday/NYE, and the opponent would be much better (Houston, SMU, or Rutgers probably instead of Marshall or Rice).

    Plus we can call it a NYD Bowl**

    Plus, the recruits from Alabama and near by areas (Hoover crew, Cory Thomas, etc.) could easily come see us.
    I'd prefer Memphis personally, but just for Beale. I think our recruiting matters more than my bar-hoping.

    I know the Liberty Bowl reps were at the Arkansas game. FWIW. I also know the Liberty Bowl likes us a lot- so if they can find a way to get us, they are going to do it.

    Because all the UM fans from Memphis live in the lily-white suburbs like Germantown and are too scared to go to the Liberty Bowl.**

    Well, really I'm only half joking.
