Makes sense, thank you!

Re: 6 SBC Teams in Bowl Games
In my opinion the correct method is pick a conference winner based on tiebreakers and rank them.
If the conference winner is not bowl eligable they vacate, but you don't go back and pick a conference winner again, like they did in 2005. Nor do you fail to rank them the first time around.
I am not against each school being able to claim a co-championship.
I am also not against the New Orleans bowl taking any co-champ it wants, but it is the duty of the SBC to rank the champs.

What changed is getting another guaranteed bowl game for the Sun Belt (goDaddy.com bowl); that allowed some flexibility; the SB champ is now guaranteed a bowl game but not the NO Bowl EXCEPT that the NO Bowl has to take the winner at least once every four years (I believe this is correct).

Its twice in every 4 years.
Re: 6 SBC Teams in Bowl Games
I thought it was once every 3.

Thanks for cleaning the oven.

In other news. IF Monroe goes bowling, I hope its some place far away, and cold. Preferably with a view of the Northern lights.
Is there a bowl in Anchorage?

Detroit should work fine.
