So, is it true SMU cancelled the Frisco Bowl, and now UTSA will be playing in the First Responders Bowl?

That’s correct.

So it sounds like you are not in favor of 4-5 UNT getting a bid to the Myrtle Beach bowl? For the record, neither am I. Nobody under .500 should be invited to a bowl until everyone over .500 is offered first, with a minimum number of games played too.

It gets a bit more complicated with bowl tie-ins and such, which may be part of the reason some more deserving teams get left out, but yeah, we're in agreement.

I totally agree that we have no business in a bowl game. And, I feel bad that more deserving teams could be left out of the bowl season. We don't even have a winning record in conference play. But, a bowl invited us, and we get to play against one of the better G5 programs over the last few seasons. We would have been stupid to turn it down.
