Screw job part 2: Bowl selection

[Ramble1885]

1985 redux it is!!!!

Best for travel! I’ll be there.

Let’s beat the brakes off of Arkansas or Oklahoma

 

[Sarrick]

Let’s go beat the **** out of an SEC team

 

[Ramble1885]

As we always do

I wouldn’t call B-Ham a shaft. Newer stadium and close to home!

 

[cpf2001]

If we want better perception next year than a winnable game against a team with a better name value than current-season results is pretty ideal.

Let’s go!!!!


I mean, let’s actually go. Like drive there.

It’s a crap tier game. Money is more important than location - just ask about where we’re playing the dwags next season.

Replace our OOC with Dukes and we are a 9 win team and in the gator bowl. Sucks to get punished for playing rough teams ooc

Guess no one likes us

I like you, Stech. Oh, you were talking about the Jackets.

Dude we are 7-5 and lost 3 of our last 5.

We got a bowl that our record deserved

GT vs Arkansas

except 2 of the 3 losses are against teams ranked number 2 and 5.

The Gophers got VT in Charlotte. Never played them before so that's a plus. Playing January 3 is a bit of a drag but playing on December 26 can be a drag too

Going to this one via Atlanta. Will visit with friends over New Years and then make the trek to Charlotte where another friend lives.

Good luck in beating your SEC opponent. Looks like pork is on the menu. Merry Christmas. Billd.

I just wanted to play someone with a better record than 6-6

You'd rather play East Carolina in Annapolis?

If we played Northwestern and UConn instead of Notre Dame and Uga we wouldn’t have

Can someone explain how bowl payouts are distributed. Read one article that said they are paid to the conferences.

 

[Thwg777]

Disagree. The games are more about money / viewership. Duke doesn’t have a real fanbase and played no one.

VT lost three of their last four to lesser teams. And before you mention that VT beat us without King, we beat Duke full strength.

We got shafted.

If. The bowl committee isn't looking at that kind of stuff. We are a 7-5 team and got a 7-5 bowl game.

IIWII

All that to say, I would rather be in Tampa or Orlando, but I’m gonna drive the 2 hours and support the boys
