***Official What Bowl Are We Going To Thread***

[CYphyllis]

ISU already curbstomped these chumps.

Boring.

Playing the same team three times in less than 1 1/2 seasons. Wonderful.

If we win, maybe we will buy them out next year.

Good bowl game, all things considered. Memphis is supposed to be an awesome city.

Sucks to have the same opponent 3 times so soon.

hhahahahahah, yeah, Memphis is an awesome city :/

[nj829]

also, if the Big 12 had a championship game, if we made it we would likely play the same team 3 times in 18 months, so not really a valid argument. Post-season football is good for the team, players, etc.

[LindenCy]

I think it's a solid option, although the rematch does kind of stink. I like a bowl with some history.

Beale St on New Years will be epic

[aauummm]

Who would have ever thought a day would come when Northern Illinois would be playing in the Orange Bowl and ISU still never has. Sometimes you just have to shake your head and mumble, mumble, mumble.

That's what I was thinking a bit ago. A directional school makes it to the Orange Bowl before we do. We had a chance once and blew the last game that would have put us into it.

I watched Vandy play last year in the Liberty Bowl and vowed never to return to Memphis, ****.

[wonkadog]

Oh yeah, Beale St. on New Year's can't wait. It's like NO or Vegas, awesome!!!!

[isuno1fan]

Time for one of my puke burps

[Wesley]

Who is the second team at Shreveport. i HOPE THEY ANNOUNCE THAT SOON SO WE WILL NOT HAVE TO WORRY.

As I've been saying, we have no right to complain about what bowl we go to. 6-6 and 9th in a 10 team conference doesn't get you to a good bowl, and it shouldn't. If we wanted better, we should have played better.

It stinks to play the same team 3 times in 2 years, but Memphis is 10 times better than Detroit or Shreveport would have been.

Beale Street in Memphis on New Year's Eve isn't too shabby really.

I don't know if this has been posted:
BCS bowl schedule -- Northern Illinois Huskies GIFTED Orange Bowl bid over Oklahoma by Big Ten, SEC and ACC coaches colluding to weaken a competing conference- ESPN

fixed

So you beat a #25 team, lose to Iowa, barely beat Kansas, play no other good teams all season...Orange Bowl

What a god awful postseason system we have. NIU gets screwed with no bowl at 10-2 one year, then get gifted an orange bowl for losing to Iowa and beating nobody a few years later.

[Chizit]

Can't complain about this considering the other choice was Shreveport.

[cyclonepower]

Wow beat WV and we play in the Holiday Bowl, choked and now we play Tulsa again...smh
