Rival's Bowl projections have a couple of interesting points.
---Fulmer at Tennessee has for be elated at the prospects of playing a Mark Mangino coached Kansas team. Not since a team photo next to the Shamu tank at SeaWord has Fulmer looked like the out of shape one in the shot. (Its too late to use on Christmas cards, but there is alway next year.)
---As I read it, the Music City and Liberty Bowls effectively bid for their SEC choices. Rival implies MSU will be Nashvilles choice, or that Liberty out bids the Music City for Bama. Considering the usual show of Crimson at the Vandy game, and the prospects of an FSU-Bama rematch again on neutral ground, how does anyone think State is the way to go? (With Memphis and Nashville being just up the road, Bama is the ONLY "have sell-out, will travel" option in this formula as usual.)
---From a football fan's perspective, a Georgia/Boise State match up in the Sugar would be a good game to watch. With weeks to prepare, there is no telling what would happen.
I've wanted some SEC team to get a shot at these guys for a long time.
---A rejuvenated Illinois program versus Florida. Awkward. That's like going to a dinner party and being seated at the same table with your ex.
---Please tell me Auburn would be in their road whites and Clemson in their home purple. This one has too many tigers and too much orange. Doubling up for 3 1/2 hours of "Go Tigers" cheers should make the Chick-Fil-A selection board making mental note not to pull that stunt again. (Its the "Feel-Good bowl" for the players, they will all feel loved and supported by the cheers.)
---In a bowl named for a fort that saw its management turned over in an ugly manner, you could not write it any better to have Michigan vs. Texas A&M. (...and the Bama Nation said in unison, Go Big Blue.)
---I'm sorry, Bama and UCF in the Liberty Bowl is stinker of a match up. Aside from Western Carolina and UL-M, thats the worst sounding game all year - and its a bowl game.
---Soon to be renamed the "Not so tough now, are you? Bowl" The Holiday Bowl projection bodes well for the SEC with the prospects of an SEC team in the BCS Championship game.
---Navy bowling again
(GO NAVY! BEAT ARMY!)
