Their coach spent like a short time hired at Temple, "his dream JOB" when he quit to bolt for the Canes which of course was his dream job. The U and Diaz deserve each other.Quote:

Sunbelt need to keep winning bowls like they have been. Highest conference bowl win percentage over the last 3 years. Keep that going. 5-0 isn’t out of the question.
Ga state against Wyoming without Ellington will be tough.
FIU vs ASU is interesting.
Liberty and ga so is also interesting
App and Cajuns should be heavy favorites.
Could be worse. How’d you like to be Pitt? 7-5 acc school gets to play a 6-6 Mac school. Woohoo. At least we get the champ.
What does that tell you?Quote:

Bottom line, the best bowl for UL, other than a NY6 bowl, was in our grasps. App just happen to be a better team. Regroup, go beat the RedHawks and move on to spring camp with a boatload of confidence.
I'll state this as plainly as I can.
There is zero downside to playing Miami in a bowl.
There are other opponents with more upside but they are unavailable.
This will be a good game.
I'll state this as plainly as I can.
There is zero downside to playing in Mobile.
There are other venues with more upside, but they are off the table.
This will be an incredible experience.
cUsa had 7 bowling teams. How many slots did they have. I think they filled them allQuote:

Miami University has struggled with the name issue just like we have. I would hope everyone here would call them by their proper name. Below is from their media guide.
PLEASE NOTE: When referring to Miami, please use either Miami, Miami University or Miami (Ohio). Please do not use Miami of Ohio or University of Miami, etc. The latter are not the proper names for our institution. Thank you.
They have shirts made that say "We were a university before Florida was a state".
Miami University founded in 1809
Florida became a state in 1845
The City of Miami was incorporated in 1896
Coral Gables, where the University of Miami is located, incorporated in 1925
University of Miami founded in 1925
