Bowl destination unknown

 

[FranklinRaider315]

Roundtrip into Ft. Lauderdale out of BNA $128. Down morning of $79 and return day after $49.

27 miles to FAU Stadium

I bet it's Hawaii. This might give Brent time to heal.

Yes, get the latest bowl humanly possible, even if its the South Alabama Bowl again.

 

[UofMemphis]

Memphis vs MTSU in the Boca Bowl could be a lot of fun...hope that happens!

We need to be playing each and every year. Vandy needs to be playing both of us each year also. JMHO

MTSU is like ASU...don't worry, we'll find a spot on the schedule every now and again for you, and we could always do bowl games in between and yeah, Memphis fans pine away for UT...I'd prefer Vandy...closer, and more beatable.

 

[FranklinRaider315]

Here we go.....

 

[BRaiderDave]

Here we go.....

I'm just gonna stop right now, FR315.

better to let the talking be conducted on the field. Let's just be Thankful we are bowling!

Memphis will beat the pants off us. Would rather skip that embarassment. Our only chance is getting matched up against a team like Eastern Michigan (who still would probably beat us, but we would havea chance)

I've got you guys beating FAU...an 8 win Memphis vs an 8 win MTSU would be a good game for both the fans, and the networks...I hope that happens.

 

[MTFNBY5]

After watching Memphis today I want no part of the Tigers. And I really hate saying that - wish I thought we could be competitive.

Agreed...Their QB is a beast. They are physical. They scored a lot of points against a good Houston D.

 

[FranklinRaider315]

Tigers and Blue Raiders in Boca is a good one! Hope it happens

I was there. Rolling eastbound to Brentwood for the Indy game. Football Friday

 

[blueraiderJT]

Us without our QB, Memphis would moonwalk backwards on us while scoring 3 TDs just with that one dance move. We barely beat Charlotte and FIU. SMH...

 

[RaiderDawg78]

Agreed. Without Brent, I have no interest in playing a team with a pulse on offense. Hoping for Idaho, a weak MAC school, Army, or SMU.

 

[RandallThomason]

I'm hoping somehow for a bowl rematch with Alabama A&M.

 

[SpaceRaider]

I have no interest in playing Memphis unless it's a regular season game as part of a home and home series.

I agree. Ferguson and this Memphis wide receiver corp vs. Nix would make last year's first half at WKU look good.

 

[UofMemphis]

I have no interest in playing Memphis unless it's a regular season game as part of a home and home series.

then I guess we won't play...oh well!

 

[SpaceRaider]

this is not exactly word for word, just a summary from radio interview at halftime of basketball game with evansville:

Massaro:
We're fortunate because we've been bowl eligible alot.

A lot of confusion and bowl trading...

CUSA champions choose where they go...

wku wants Boca, latech wants HOD

ODU very attractive because their first bowl and solid fan base...

Soon as something is known, fans will know. NO is attracted to S Miss...

no speculation on destination for MT

 

[MidTnBlues]

More than likely Hawaii

 

[MTTim]

We were in position for NO until USM won. I think we are now headed to Hawaii

 

[Blueraider_Mike]

Part of me likes Hawaii, it would be a great reward for the players and since its Christmas Eve, I know I don't have to figure a way to go...isn't the Independence bowl possibly open? If LT wants the Dallas game, this may open for us.

 

[RaiderDoug]

At least Hawaii would help recruiting.

You've got to be able to sell the last 2 bowl destinations - Bahamas and Hawaii.

 

[RaiderDawg78]

...isn't the Independence bowl possibly open?...

No, both the SEC and ACC have enough bowl eligible teams to fill the slots.

[MTFNBY5]

Could we get ODU to take McPhee and First Lady Liz with them?

 

[FranklinRaider315]

Could we get ODU to take McPhee and First Lady Liz with them?

Oh my.
