I don't care about going to Memphis, just not vs Memphis. Yuck
I was told yesterday that the Cactus bowl was likely, for what it’s worth. Guy that knows a guy that might know something.
SI has updated their projection with all of tonights games.
Camping World Bowl, Orlando, Fla. (5:15 p.m., ESPN)
ACC vs. Big 12
Prediction: NC State vs. Iowa State
Of course, they also have this:
Citrus Bowl, Orlando, Fla. (1 p.m., ABC)
SEC vs. ACC/Big Ten
Prediction: Mississippi State vs. Notre DameMichigan State

They lost by 6 more points to the team they lost to a few weeks ago...and with Miami utterly destroyed, I think they are on outside looking in.
Assumes TCU and Notre Dame to the New Years 6 and Miami out (which could very well happen due to tonight's outcomes). I would be much more optimistic had TCU put up a better fight today. Regardless, give me NC State in Orlando over a road game versus Memphis every time.
They have Michigan State and Notre Dame sharing a game, which would be impressive.
EDIT: They fixed it, but still have us in Orlando.
Yeah, I don't trust Palm at all. When it comes to Bowl projections I think McMurphy is the best and then probably Stewart Mandel but he is a pay site now. Hale from ESPN isn't bad either.
One wildcard...This was Miami’s response after losing at 5-7 Pitt. TCU at least made a game of it for a half plus the outcome was similar to just a couple of weeks ago...Also with UW not making a title game in the #5 P5 conference is why I predict TCU makes it...but like many have said, logic gets thrown out the window this time of year...
I will say, I am slightly more optimistic than I was before in there being a chance TCU stays ahead of Washington to play in the Cotton Bowl (mainly for financial reasons).
NY6 bowls don't give a **** about attendance. They are selected based on the best teams. It's the secondary bowls that care about how many people would travel.
Maybe. But hopefully he has Cotton wrong. Does Committee make the selections? I am sure Cotton is telling Committee they want home state TCU.
