Bowl Game Projections

[cyclonepower]

Half the projections I have seen for the Texas Bowl has a PAC 12 team filling in but the SEC will have plenty of teams eligible

I'm just thinking about playing Texas AM or LSU in Houston. A hostile road game with intimidated officials.

Holy crap. Already focused on officials?

Memphis was ok. But the crappy weather and the loss put a damper on a lot of people's opinion of Memphis.

Agree, we laid a huge turd in that game. Playing Tulsa for the umpteenth time didn't help. My wife and kids were excited to go to "bowl" game. It was 100% opposite of what they pictured it would be. So, I'll be going with friends from now on.

Just saying...

Can't find the link but this week yahoo's projections had us facing Missouri in the Liberty bowl. Hopefully we've played our way out of that bowl, but if that matchup occurred would the telephone trophy be on the line in a bowl game?

Your kidding, right? A&M is basically the city of Houston’s favorite college team. College Station is only an hour north of Houston. I can assure you that more Houston residents cheer for A&M than any other university in South Texas, including both Univ of Houston & Rice (the two most prominent programs within the city limits of Houston). As for LSU, they always travel well, regardless of the team’s current standing. They too will easily have more fans present than ISU, given the proximity of Baton Rouge to Houston. If the Clones are picked for this bowl, it will effectively be a road game in our opponents back yard.

Iowa State will have 25,000 ticket requests

OSU losing to KSU hurt today. Unless TCU beats OU in the championship game, I doubt the Big 12 gets a second team in the NY6, which is complete BS.

But West Virginia losing means that we'll probably get picked ahead of them.

 

[BigJCy]

So you think if K-State beats us next week and has the same record as us they will get picked ahead of us in the Bowl Selection process?

We are not going to the liberty bowl

We are not going to the liberty bowl

What if Iowa State goes there? Will you go then?

 

[BeneventiCy28]

They won’t. But I would go...again. I didn’t hate it, but the weather and game made it kind of a downer trip and I’d love to get a Florida bowl. But I’ll go where the team goes

Since my dad bought a truck from you can I tag along?

 

[CyForPresident]

If I had to guess right now, assuming ISU wins next week along with the other favorites

Playoff - OU
Alamo - TCU
Camping World - OSU
Texas Bowl - Texas
Liberty - ISU
Cactus - West Virginia
Heart of Dallas - KSU

Camping World could still take us ahead of OSU and Texas though. They’d just have to think we’d bring more fans than OSU and Texas

Once I know where we’re actually going, I’ll be able to better answer that question. I’m not sure my carry on suitcase would be very comfy if we fly to the game

Does the big 12 bowl alliance seem lame? In the big 10 you come in 6th and go to Florida on Jan 1st.

It’s terrible. It’s better than it has been in the past, but it’s still bad.

 

[awd4cy]

I don’t want to play against Missouri. I’m done with them.

 

[jdcyclone19]

im holding out for Orlando. They know its been years since weve been to a bowl game and we travel well.

Yep, B1G has a much better crop of bowls to go to unfortunately.
