Only if we can go just to boo the Big 12 team, and get the announcers to refer to them as the "Little 10" on their last LB appearance.

In all seriousness, they have a six-year deal until 2020.

You clearly did not attend the Birmingham Bowl...

I did and it sucked

Let's run the table and play in the toughest bowl we can. Hopefully we can play an ACC school

Heck, didn't Memphis have a parade or something for beating North Texas in some bowl I can't even remember? Or am I mixing that up with Cal and the NIT?

Still, if we play an SEC school in a bowl game and its a 3 hour drive from here, I am definitely going.

I went to Legion Field to watch a game against UAB...that rusting upper deck behind us was a distraction. Is it about to collapse on us??

If we win out I believe that would mean a Cotton Bowl (highest ranked G6 team)

They got rid of the upper level and I think it is much better now. My only complaints was the traffic and the concessions.

If you must have that split pic, can you at least do us a favor and flip the sides the two are on so then it looks like the Tiger is about to eat Colonel Sanders...

I second that request.

Im a fair person. This seems like a reasonable request, I'll see what I can do

I prefer seeing the Tigers play in Tampa Bay on Jan. 9

Yeah, but aren't you a UTK fan?

I like the idea of playing a P5 - but that is because that's where the money is. I would prefer an ACC in the Military as an SEC in Birmingham.

yep, but also a Memphis season ticket holder.

Thanks for your money.

No wonder you prefer us playing SEC teams.

Personally, I would like to see some new P5 opponents from the ACC or B12...well maybe not the B12 any longer.
