[QUOTE="EE95_curse EMAG!, post: 504769, member: 4295"] Yes, I am seeing WAY too much "we shouldn't be in this piddly bowl" talk from my fellow Jacket fans. We could lose this game and those bemoaning this bowl will look REALLY silly. I honestly think this is what GT deserved. We had one or two good games this year, but we lost to mediocre teams multiple times (USF, Pitt, Duke) and got man-handled in a way I haven't seen in 20 years against UGA. I was hoping we'd simply say "no thanks" to any bowl invite, honestly. After several years of that gosh-awful blue turf bowl in sub 0 degress Idaho and other non-descript bowls, I am embarrassed as a GT fan that we even accept those invitations. We don't make money on them as best I can tell and not a single person outside of GT realm even know these bowls exist or are being played. It does nothing for recruiting in a positive way and if I am an HC competing for same recruits as GT, I'd remind those recruits of the crappy, what-bowl-is-that-again, that GT plays in 3 of every 4 years. Sorry, I am salty mostly due to that stupid consecutive bowl record we had that was beyond silly. We rarely played in an important bowl and some of my fellow GT fans touted it...this got lots of laughs from serious football programs, as it should have. [/QUOTE]
