    all we have to sell is our allotment. selling over that, depending on what percentage we get, could be a none issue.

    i think we'll sell any allotment for Mobile or Shreveport and if we do that, then yes that money is guaranteed.

    We're not starting up the "splitting revenue" again are we?

    You sell tickets, you get to keep a percentage ... that is the "revenue".

    Not for Shreveport, those numbers are for the conference tie ins...which the sunbelt is not. For example, hypothetically if Michigan were to go to the New Orleans bowl, it won't be for $500k that I can promise. They would get more $ than we would just because of the name and viewers they bring to the table.

    Exactly, under the new revenue sharing rules, as long as we break even that's about all that matters, go play the biggest name we can first, if they are all about equal take Nola every time.

Or the freezing rain? Or both simultaneously? Then had to walk a mile through the roughest neighborhoods in Mobile without lights & cops on every street corner just to get back to your car? Let someone else have the glory of the Go Daddy Bowl. Besides, I'd rather watch the commercials for that game, than the game itself.
    Got to give props.

    Just got the "You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Bandwagon King again" message for giving Kyle to much greenage.

    Agree with everything you said.

    Except commercials. I hate commercials.

    First what ACC or SEC is not going to Shreveport? There is going to be 10 or so ACC and SEC teams that will be eligible. There is no way in hell we get an INDY Bowl bid. There is no way we sell our allotment on a Sunday night. Everyone has taken off over the holidays and would have to miss another day of work right after the holidays. This has to be one the absolute worst time of the year for a bowl game. And NO we are not going to a bowl in Houston.

    We are in the SUCK BELT until we get out of here there are no other options.

    Well, it could happen if the committee puts 3 SEC teams in the playoff.

    That will not happen, the other conference would have a fit. There will be only, at the most, two SEC team that have 1 lose.

    What would your scenario be for 3 to make it ... they seem to be knocking each other down a little more each week.
