ESPNs bowl selection is at 7 cst i believe.
It's not a bowl selection show like the NCAA bball tourney. Whether or not UL gets an invite will be known before the ESPN show. The ESPN show breaks down/talks about the bowl matchups.
If someone hasn't selected Western Michigan (I believe Independence will as soon as they concede Notre Dame and NC State aren't coming) by time for the show, Independence, PJ, Hawaii, Texas and Motor City won't be determined until the lottery later in the day.
If Independence does as I expect after the BCS draw confirms what we know (two from Big XII two from SEC), they will invite La.Tech and WMU.
Once WMU is out of the way the other bowls can proceed. I expect Notre Dame to go to Hawaii, they've got the money to afford it, ESPN can justify sweetening the pot, and no snowballs for their fans to throw, with Notre Dame off the table expect Louisiana to be invited to Texas, NC State to Birmingham and Motor City to select either ASU, San Jose State, or FAU. Unless SJSU or FAU elects to sweeten the pot and throw a wad of money, I expect ASU to be selected.
What about Northern Illinois ?Quote:
