Bowl Talk
Now that the season is a little over halfway done it’s about that time to start looking into potential bowl destinations.

1. Has a fan where do you think your team will end up this year?

2. If you got to pick any bowl Destiination which one would you prefer?


1. I hope I’m wrong but I think troys gonna end up in Mobile.

2. Out of the sun belt destination Bowls I prefer a New Orleans or Orlando but would also love to see a marquee matchup in Birmingham if there’s an opening.

Seems like they’d rather be on ESPN (instead of CBS-Sports Network) if they have any say in it.

The way the Sunbelt west is now I would be shocked if there champion has a winning record going in to the Sunbelt title game. Arkansas state may put office 6-6 season but seven wins would be stretching it.

Ark State is 4-4 right now.

Remaining games:
home vs. South Alabama (2-6) easy W
@Coastal Carolina (5-3) toss-up
home vs. ULM (4-4) not easy W but still favored
@Texas State (2-6) easy W

6-6 is worst case scenario. 7-5 most likely and 8-4 is more likely than 6-6

They don't have a say ... well, they can request, but it's truly up to the bowls.

There is a zero chance that Troy slips past Montgomery with the No. 3 pick. So, if ULL gets the NOLA treatment (01-lauramac2) then it's GS/Troy/App to Mobile, Troy to Montgomery, GS/APP to Orlando.

RE: Bowl Talk
The stadium in Montgomery isn’t big enough for Troy alone. The stadium is 45mins drive from our home stadium where we have averaged over 25k this season

The camellia bowl seats 25,000 even

Not to mention the city of montromery wouldn’t make a lot of money off Troy. Most already live there or would just drive up and back home after game.

My hope is that stAte will not accept a bowl even if an invitation is extended and there is a real possibility that we won't win six. Performance like we have seen this year should not be rewarded but some thinks it looks good to say "we have been to a bowl xxx straight times".

I just want to go to Mobile or Orlando please don’t send us back to Nola. We already start the season off next year with a neutral site game there.

That’s not necessarily true. Troy has a large number of fans in the Mobile and Pensacola areas. That didn’t deter the DG bowl from taking Troy. Fans will go, spend, money, and least a night or two to soak up the bowl game atmosphere.

RE: Bowl Talk
If I had to guess I'd say New Orleans would take UL or stAte if one of those two are available.

Mobile would I think take Troy, App or GS
Montgomery GS, App or Coastal
Orlando GS, App, Troy, Coastal or stAte
Arizona would pick the best out of what is left.

Currently Team Rankings projects six bowl eligible teams in the Sun Belt
GS 10-2
App 9-2
Troy 8-4
Coastal 6-6
stAte 7-5
UL 6-6

So my guesses are:
New Orleans - stAte
Dollar General - GS
Camellia - App
Cure - Troy
Arizona - UL

Coastal goes to an open bowl outside the conference pool.

I can't wish us to stay home just because the young men on the field deserve better than that. Especially Hansen. He's played his butt off. I think this is a year where we should be happy with any bowl we might get to participate in.

Dollar General Bowl reps were at App/GS. Second time they've seen Georgia Southern fans party in the rain.

RE: Bowl Talk
Everyone needs to quit assuming that, if bowl eligible, Louisiana will be in New Orleans. Not saying it won't happen, but....

After their last appearance when they got to 6-6 on the final weekend, there was a lot of backlash about their selection. There's been tremendous pressure to take someone other than the Cajuns.

The Louisiana administration has no problem with going somewhere else. Had the Cajuns been eligible last year they were headed to Orlando.

But, right now the Cajuns are not bowl eligible so it's kind of moot.
