When the Liberty Bowl deal did not happen, the Big East then gave our #3 back to the Meineke Car Care Bowl, and begged the Texas Bowl to take our #4 even for less money. The Big East never planned to give the Texas Bowl our #3 and Rutgers only ended up there last year because the Meineke Car Care Bowl pulled that stunt with Navy to get revenge on Mike Tranghese for having the audacity to try improving our bowl situation.

Pay out more money and they will get a better pick. Match the Gator money and they can have our number 2 every year. We could screw the Gator bowl and Notre Dame then by kissing them both off at the same time.

All I can remember is..."I'll guarantee you the Big East will get the Liberty Bowl"...aka L-Yes......lol...
