Utah St is not playing in Detroit.

vs. Big Ten, I think Purdue

Yeah I just about had a heart attack when I read that. Utah State to Detroit? No thanks!

Sorry, i typed all three threads so fast.

I fixed it. Right now it is WMU vs TBD

WMU v. Purdue

Nice matchup for a MAC win (hopefully).

I hope Toledo gets a crack at Pitt. I have zero doubt Toledo will win and it will make for a nice trip down south for the fans.

Well now there's a report that it's Pitt vs. Kentucky. With UT going to a bowl that is coming from "totally out of left field"

That was last years game in that bowl - Pitt vs Kentucky.

Kentucky not eligible this year at 5-7.

You are good man, no worries!

Good match-up. Purdue will bring some fans.

Congrats to WMU on the Purdue matchup.

This game could seriously sell out.

Great for the MAC.

Congrats Broncos!

Take down the B1G for all of us. Some/most early predictions are favoring WMU.

Go drop some serious pointage on them.

Go MAC!

If WMU moves the offense like they did v Toledo, Purdue is in for a long evening.

Should be a good game, Purdue's leading rusher tore his ACL in the last game of the season, so he won't be playing in this bowl game. Purdue also struggles against passing teams, and WMU has the 7th ranked passing offense in the nation and the 18th ranked scoring offense.

Purdue struggled against Indiana. That alone says a lot. It took a bad call by the refs to help Purdue secure the win.

also read something that I thought was kind of strange (but great for wmu!) the LCB is going to pay for all of wmu's expenses, and is allowing WMU to keep all the money from tickets they sell through their ticket office. That's it, no payout with a guarantee of tickets purchased or anything.... seems like a pretty sweet deal. As far as I know this is something new for that bowl
