This article from N.J. discusses Rutgers, NCSU, Indep. Bowl, etc. etc.

http://www.nj.com/rutgersfootball/index....pears.html

sounds like a trade of Rutgers from International Bowl to MCB is down the drain because of SBC backup team not winning 7 games. (confusing).

"That left only the Papajohns.com Bowl for the Knights, though there was some speculation that Rutgers was interested in being part of a "trade" -- with the International Bowl taking Schiano's team and then swapping it with the Motor City Bowl, its sister game. The absence of quality opponents appears to have sidetracked those plans.

The opponent in the Papajohns.com Bowl was supposed to be from the SEC, but the league failed to qualify enough teams to fill the slot. The back-up plan called for a Sun Belt team to fill in, but the only league school with at least seven victories was Troy. When the Trojans beat Arkansas State Saturday night to win the Sun Belt title they earned a bid to the New Orleans Bowl. "
