Independece Bowl Oppenent
Everyone seems to lean toward Arkansas, S-Carolina, maybe Georgia.
Can anyone elaborate on this.
SEC Bowls-
1. BCS
2. BCS
3. Capital One
4/5. Cotton Bowl picks first from remaining teams in Western Division; Outback Bowl picks first from remaining teams in Eastern Division
6. Chick-Fil-A
7/8. Music City and Liberty work with SEC office to determine order of picks
9. Independence
10. Papajohns.com
Assumed Standings
1. Florida 12-0
2. Alabama 12-0
3.Missippi 9-3
4. LSU 9-3
5. kentucky 8-4
6. Ark 7-5
7. Auburn 7-5
8. Georgia 6-6
9. Tenn 6-6
10. SC 6-6
11. No bowl vandy
12. No Bowl Missi St
So the Indy Bowl gets Tenn?, or would SC jump them, or would another team drop down?
.........thoughts.
Re: Independece Bowl Oppenent
Any of those teams would make for a fantastic and fun ballgame to watch!! As much as I hate Shreveport, I do love gambling and I do love the SEC

Am I the only one who had a great time in Shreveport (I went to the Alabama game)?

I had a great time at the game but not in Shreveport
Re: Independece Bowl Oppenent
Won't matter...we'll be at the Insight after OSU beats OU and gets BCS.

There was a drastic difference between the Miami game vs Alabama game. Bringing in an SEC team with its fanbase makes all the difference.

You might be right. I ran into some Alabama fans at one of the casinos before the game, and the same bunch at a bar after the game.
Very good fans, and very complimentary of ISU. Even they admited the field goal was good (probably to make me feel better).
Re: Independece Bowl Oppenent
I'd rather go to the Insight and play Minnesota
Re: Independece Bowl Oppenent
Moot point. I'll be in Phoenix on New Year's Eve.

If the game is in the port I will not go! We might as well play the game in Cedar Rapids!
Tempe-I am there in a heartbeat
Houston -Probably

.........thoughts.
Arkansas plays at LSU, so if LSU finishes 9-3 as you predict, Arkansas will be 6-6, not 7-5.
Georgia will likely get beat by GaTech and finish 6-6.
Tenn is @ KY and this game is only -1 point spread. So, your 8-4 UK and 6-6 TN is reasonable, but it might finish 7-5, 7-5.
SouthCarolina is home underdog against Clemson and has lost 3 straight, so 6-6 is reasonable, but again, never know.
Your order of bowl selection is correct, so it is "most likely" that Independence will pick from the group of SC, Georgia, TN or Ark. I would really prefer to avoid Arkansas, they are #1 in SEC scoring offense. We should hope for SC if we go Indy. They are #11 in SEC scoring offense.
