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

There is more allure in a Tulsa - OSU matchup than a repeat ISU - Tulsa matchup. Although I would be the OSU folks are doing everything in their power to NOT play Tulsa.

RT @McMurphyESPN: Have confirmed NIU-FSU in Orange; UF-UL in Sugar; KSU-Oregon in Fiesta as 1st reported by @SIPeteThamel

My hatred for that idiot Nebraska team is at an all time high. Do your freaking job and beat an average WI team for god's sake.

Maybe to get more money for the conference, liberty pays but doesnt want a rematch?

TCU vs. Michigan State in the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl (h/t @FollowtheFrogs)

KSU Oregon is a game I will watch

In Tech's double overtime win at home against Kansas their attendance was noticeably down. That was their only win in their last 5 games.

Baylor's attendance for their last three games was 39,000, 38,000, and 39,000.

I don't see any reason Houston or Dallas would pick either of them over us. We have demonstrated we bring people, sell tickets, and stay in the city/spend money.

Baylor has finished strong which helps them. But their attendance this year is not supportive of being chosen ahead of us. Tech is on a slide. I like our chances of being picked ahead of them as well.

I don't see Iowa State vs Purdue drawing 44,000.

At least the Fiesta bowl should be good. Those other 2 on paper are bad, bad games.

But HoD would get to pick before the Liberty bowl, correct?

Pls, pls. Make this happen. OSU-Tulsa would be a good game and let ISU take the HOD.

There maybe a bunch of matchup that are going to be ugly

Cyclones had better bowls withing their reach, on the rise you might jump a team or two at 6-6, as it is, I expect Shreveport. Nothing wrong with Shreveport though, I went in 2002 and had a good time, only thing I don't like about it is the date, not sure we can make that work. Go Cyclones and lets try to control ourselves if this is where they go, a bowl is a bowl with these results.

ISU will for sure pull their part of the deal.

Agreed.

Well then, you should have an issue due to its relation to ISU and the Big 12.

Either way, the difference could be big to ISU- if the reason why we are in the HoD is because of two BCS Big 12 teams. That difference is a few hundred thousand, which is always nice.
