Its that time of year again, and here is the preliminary schedule. Most games have yet to have both participants determined, but the first one, Dec 19, is TCU vs Northern IL, should be a game of interest to some.

I miss the good ol' days with like 50 bowl games on New Year's Day :cry:

[Flames24Rulz]

Great start to the bowl season! :D

[Andy]

Whoa, whoa, whoa, someone took the bowl thread before I could get to it?

 

:-P

[CubinNY]

Go Broncos!

 

The International bowl in lovely Toronto Canada in January!

 

Where do I get my tickets? :D

[Post Count Padder]

Yeah, Outback Bowl. I hear we're playing wither LSU or Auburn.

[TruffleShuffle]

LSU is probably BCS-bound. Auburn/Tennessee is more likely.

Wait a second, what if Ohio wins the MAC title game? The MAC only has 3 bowl tie-ins and they've all been filled without Ohio...

two teams PSU has played numerous times before (in bowls)

Ohio should get the GMAC bowl. They're the beneficiary of the new rule where division winners are automatically bowl eligible. I wish that rule would've been around last year...

No Wisconsin in a BCS Bowl makes me a saaaaaaaaaad panda.

[TruffleShuffle]

No Wisconsin in a BCS Bowl makes me a saaaaaaaaaad panda.

 

Unfortunately, Wisconsin didn't have a schedule where they could really earn their way in. Outside of Michigan, the best team they played was Penn State. They just don't have the quality wins that merit inclusion in the BCS.

[CoolHandLuke]

Holy what!? How the heck did NIU make a bowl?

 

So is the San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl one of the more prestigous bowls?

If S. Carolina goes to a lesser bowl than Bama, I would be amazed. I'm not too sure of how well their fans travel and I assume Bama won't have many given what has taken place.

That's just not going to happen. I think we are headed to the Liberty Bowl, though there is a wacked out scenario that sends us to the Peach. Screw Alabama and their 6-6 record and coach stalking AD.

[UK1679666180]

I expect that as well. Of course, that means UK will play either BC, Maryland, or WF in the Music City Bowl (if GT wins).

[TruffleShuffle]

darn, the Music City bowl just doesn't feel the same without Minnesota

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I think the NewOrleans Bowl has invited Rice.

[Derwood]

I think the NewOrleans Bowl has invited Rice.

 

yep, Rice's first bowl game since the late 60's if i remember correctly

If the Alamo Bowl selects Kansas State or Texas Tech ahead of Missouri, I'm gonna be very upset. Missouri beat both of those teams and has 25 players from texas, including Chase Daniel, a legend in Texas. And I dont wanna hear any crap about not traveling well, because if other schools went through the crap that Mizzou went through, they'd travel like crap too. And by the way, when Missouri played in Shreveport Louisiana, we brought around 13 to 14 thousand people. I really hope they don't screw us. Take Texas or Texas A&M, but not those other two schools.

I just want Kansas to make a bowl game - only because their coach is a really bad fatty.
