Bowl question

[TheOriginalPittMan]

Assuming we win next week, what bowl game are we looking at as possibilities? Is there one that is more likely?

Also, the TaxSlayer Bowl in JAX. I'd imagine the Music City doesn't select an ACC team this year since they picked one the first 2 years and can only pick one more. I think they'll wait for ND or someone else.

Any of those but the Sun sounds good.

The Sun is strangely one of the more historic bowls and it has its own TV window on CBS so in a crowded bowl lineup that one actually has a good national visibility. Plus, it'd be nice to erase the memory of the 3-0 Wannyball effort.

A 4-8 Notre Dame team in a bowl? I'm kidding, if they do beat USC next week and go 5-7 I know someone will invite them to a bowl, and it's just wrong to invite any team to a bowl that can't even play .500 ball.

1989 Sun Bowl is the first bowl game I can remember watching from beginning to end. 31-28 over Texas A&M with Alex Van Pelt at the helm.

And Hackett being carried off the field for his only career highlight.

The future seemed so bright until Gottfried was fired and the administration thought it was smart to raise the academic standards for the athletes. Paid off well to the tune of 32 wins total in the decade of the 90s.

I only hope it's one of the others for ease of travel.

And that includes his stops at other schools as well

The Music City Bowl has a pretty good chance to get Indiana vs. Kentucky --- which isn't elite-level football but it's a bit of an old rivalry and it would sell some tickets. A very drive-able game for both fan-bases.

I'd be pretty surprised if we don't see the B1G in the Music City Bowl (and thus the ACC in the Gator).

I don't feel like looking it up because it's not pretty, but 32 wins in the whole decade isn't right

 

[President Stache]

37 wins for the record

I've been to Pinstripe - it was surprisingly a good time if you make a few day holiday stop in NYC

I would like this Bowl. Jacksonville and a place to party for New Year's.

I predict Pitt plays in the Camping World Independence Bowl. You all still underestimate the bowl committees ability to diss Pitt.
