Anyone heard anything besides the projections?

Nope, I just ask for anyone except a CUSA or a MAC team we play yearly anyway. Some of the ones I have heard and liked are:
MU vs Duke
MU vs BYU

The one I saw this morning: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/amp/ncaa...75y3vmv4tu

had us vs NMSU. An interesting matchup, never played them before. A little further down at the Quick Lane Bowl has EMU going against Wisconsin. How come we can't go there? Would love to get a shot at another quality p5 to prove ND was no fluke.

I would like to see a Marshall vs Wyoming matchup myself. I guess we're all seeing who wins the conference championship games to see where we land bowl wise?

I have seen that prediction a couple of weeks ago. That would be a cool matchup. Wyoming is the read deal this year. Very physical upfront. Would be a good game for sure.

Shut yo malf!

I'd love the Myrtle Beach Bowl against an AAC opponent like ECU. If not, anyone but C-USA or MAC.

That's the problem. If we go to MBB, its probably going to be CUSA or MAC.

Tulsa played ODU last year in the Myrtle Beach bowl. But yes, I can see us drawing Ohio or MTSU as an opponent

The rumor I'm seeing now is ugly!

Me too. Ohio.

However, espn want eyeballs and we are a brand….

Anyone but MAC or CUSA schools. But that's likely what it's going to be.

Ohio isn't a brand though, with that logic we could play anyone.

No kidding. Did you even read the post above this where Johns said the rumor he was seeing is ugly?

And I responded, "Me too. Ohio." (As in "ugly rumor") "However ESPN wants eyeballs and Marshall is a brand." (as in, OHIO is NOT a brand)
Nobody wants to play Ohio.

McMurphy now has us at Cure against Toledo!

Not sure whats worse Ohio or Toledo.

Give me AFA, Wyoming, SDSU or SJSU in the Gildan NM bowl!

Wyoming I hope

For some reason, people are dead set against getting a bowl game west of the Mississippi River.
For the life of me, I'm not sure why. If you are playing a team you have never played before or rarely
played what difference does it make.
