Bowl Talk - Who You Crappin'? - 12-07-2014 10:41 AM

I thought I'd start a new thread, as much of the bowl talk has been spread out in multiple threads.

I'm guessing mobile that this point

There used to be this great head shop in DeKalb where you could pick up some quality merchandise.

I only see 3 possiabilities

1. GoDaddy doesn't budge and we go back to Mobile for a 2011 (2012) rematch.

2. UofI is picked by Armed Forces Bowl and GoDaddy is willing to swap NIU for the Illini. Likely vs Houston.

3. Frazier and ESPN work their magic with GoDaddy and get a NIU/Marshall bowl in Boca or Bahamas.


RE: Bowl Talk - Who You Crappin'? - 12-07-2014 10:49 AM

I honestly think they will play Marshall somewhere, probably Boca. I just don't see how you could let your 11-2 conference champ play a 5 loss Sun Belt team. If they keep that matchup, the conference loses its damn integrity. Might as well finish 4th and get a better bowl matchup. Doesn't make sense. Sean Frazier and ESPN will get it done if the conference doesn't. I know there is some talk about Houston and UofI (puke), but I think those moves are a lot more involved than Boca.

Nevermind...just saw ESPN owns the Armed Forces bowl as well. ESPN will be our greatest ally.

Right now its GoDaddy against Ark State


RE: Bowl Talk - clcfball11 - 12-07-2014 10:51 AM

I want anything besides GoDaddy.

I'd be willing to bet that this won't happen.

I've been reading this thread and reminiscing:

Anywhere warm is fine with me. Mobile matchup with Ark State isn't anything new.


RE: Bowl Talk - HUSKIEFOOTBALLFAN - 12-07-2014 10:59 AM

The GoDaddy Bowl was one of the best bowl experiences. Mardi Gras parade the night before, great atmosphere,

Damn, the orange bowl was so much fun haha.


RE: Bowl Talk - HuskieRak - 12-07-2014 11:05 AM

I'm thinking and hoping for Boca


RE: Bowl Talk - Skinut - 12-07-2014 11:10 AM

Likewise. I want Marshall. BSU gets the access slot, but the NIU/Marshall matchup would pit the two other dominate teams from the group in a head to head. What's not to like there?


RE: Bowl Talk - cartershaw - 12-07-2014 11:15 AM

Godaddy would be ok with me, looking at the schedule, not many more dates I could make it to the game...


RE: Bowl Talk - NJTB - 12-07-2014 11:18 AM

Both ESPN writers projecting GoDaddy:

The good news is that Danica Patrick will be at the game. Yay.


RE: Bowl Talk - numbersdontlie - 12-07-2014 11:18 AM

Will we find out where we're going today?

Well, they are contractually obligated to go, so this is the obvious pick for everyone.

And I should clarify that me wanting a different bowl has anything to do with the Go Daddy Bowl not being a good bowl game. I'm sure it's fantastic. From what I heard from everyone who went last time, they had a phenomenal time. It's strictly based on the matchup.
