No. 16 ESPN/USA Today; No. 18 AP) accepted an invitation to the MPC Computers Bowl to be played Dec. 27 in Boise, Idaho.

The Cavaliers' opponent has not been determined, but Gary Beck, executive director of the MPC Computers Bowl, said an offer has been made to Fresno State.

"We are tying up the loose ends right now. That is the team we want," Beck told the Daily Progress of Charlottesville on Tuesday afternoon. "We have extended a proposal to them and we are hoping that they would accept it."

Beck said his bowl is excited about the potential contest.

The game will be televised nationally on ESPN.

The only thing worse than Boise would be to have to play Akron or Troy in a bowl like the SVB. That would really be a screw job for NIU.

Come on FSU, accept the bid so we would still have a chance at Vegas fo Indy bowl.

"That is the team we want."

Nice to feel loved, huh...... :rolleyes:

I hope Northern gets in this one. I want to finish the season with a win over a Top 25 BCS team!

It's a great feeling to know that we are no one's first choice for any bowl.

Now I know how ALUM felt on prom night in highschool.

The one big hold-up I think is the ticket sales promise-- it looks like fresno cant be sure the fans will travel to boise-- I guess the aggreement is for 8-10k (i think that is very high) they are wieghing the benifits of playing a 16th ranked team and the cost to cover ticket sales
