2019 Bowl Talk

[fanof71]

We also have a conference champion as an opponent. I for one think it is an important game as we need a victory to carry the positive momentum into the off season.

Great point Mike, and it's in our recruiting footprint..

That's right. MAC conference champ Miami Ohio will not be a push over. This is a hugely important game for the program, lets us practice a whole extra month. Hopefully people see this. We need this "W" to carry the momentum on our way to a conference championship, undefeated season, and NY6 bowl next year. Can I dream?

Until we actually win a conference championship we can't complain. Hell most were complaining last time we went to the NOLA bowl. They probably would be complaining if we went to the NOLA bowl this year which was the best option.

Geaux Cajuns!

We don't get to practice the entire month. However, by playing the latest game possible, we do get to practice the maximum amount of days allowed, versus the very early scheduled bowls.

It isn't a great advantage, but it is an advantage over playing in NOLA.

Sorry, the MAC was not a good conference this season. I've watched Miami (Ohio) twice this season and they are not that good. I don't care if they are champions. And frankly, we need to beat them to have any momentum going into next season to sell tickets after the championship loss. The one thing Coach Napier has done in his second season is beat the teams he was supposed to have defeated. I will go to the bowl game because my team is playing in it, but I'm not excited about playing a mediocre MAC team.

Clemson coach Dabo Swinney knows quite well how teams and players get long-term benefits from the extra practices that accompany a bowl bid.

I will be there happy. I remember the wheels falling off not to long ago. If it allows us to finish on a good note, great. Progress , whatever the size given circumstances is progress.

I can't make it to Mobile on a Monday after the holidays. I really wanted to go, but can't swing that. I'm sure I'm not alone.

And I really think our commishiner is a piece of crap. I hate his silence and hiding from his lazy decisions. He should have to answer questions. Hopefully us and App can get a movement against him because he sure not helping us....

I see everyone complaining but what exactly did people think was going to happen? What power do you believe the commish had in this instance??

College football reminds me of healthcare in this country. It is a system that evolved with no planning over a long period of time and veered off course long ago. Nobody likes it, it isn’t fair or just, and it doesn’t benefit the people it is supposed to benefit. But we all are forced to go along with it because the powers that be don’t care enough to make it better. It is stupid and we have a right to be angry about how terrible it is. It is a joke.

At least pretend to help the Universities that employ him. An announcement would have helped. Just say something, anything rather than the sun belt states . He reminds me of Scott Farmer too much I guess
