How many do we have now?Looks like most of the ones we have are contingent , meaning it could go to us or another conference. I think we have 3-4 for sure 1-2 maybe.Looks like we are losing ground even the mAC has more nowI think.
bowl tie in's
- Thread starter ohio herd
- Start date
I'm relieved to see the Bahamas Bowl is still an option.
You joke... Eventually we are going to have to "take our turn" on the soccer field in front of two busloads of people.
When we go there I plan on scheduling a vacation that just happens to have 3 hours blocked off for a MU football game... The destination isn't the problem, it is just a logistically poor place to have a college football game. The fact that bowl is still around after 3-4 years is pretty amazing.
Really?

Fill in the blanks, and then tell me which is better.
Too many blanks to fill. It looks like every other year. Nobody knows where anybody is going bowl-wise.
OK, here is the answer.
The blanks are, in order, AAC, MAC, SBC, and MWC. You will note that all four of the other conferences, including the vaunted AAC, have bowl mixes that are exactly the same as CUSA. Thus when one says stuff like “we have to get out of CUSA” because of bowl matchups, one does not know enough about football to comment, and should refrain from doing so.
More so, if one thinks that all of these bowls, all five conferences worth, are somehow beneath you, then this level of football is just not for you. Find something else.
