    San Diego > San Antonio > El Paso

    also

    Big 10 opponent > Big 12 opponent > ACC opponent

    IMO If we are going to try the recruit Texas/South bullshit than its significantly better to play in San Antonio against Texas or Oklahoma State

    Pretty sure that the Alamo Bowl is the 1st choice for the conference after the Group of 6 Bowls or whatever the hell they are called ... the winner on Saturday will be going there ... although there's an outside chance I could see us in the Cotton Bowl if we beat the Cougs.

    I would love the Holiday Bowl against a team we can beat.

    This team is probably legitimately the #15 team in the country. With better talent at WR, OL and OLB, a decent OC and a good QB - we are probably top 5.

    Ultimately, what's good for the program is for us to get a lot of visibility in SoCal for a week and get a nice win. Sad that we boned the season on a dumb fuck bunch of shit at the Farm, but ultimately it's going well under Pete.

    This offseason will determine how we go forward.

    We better do something good with recruiting this year. I see 8-4 next year.

    Looks like the Alamo and Holiday bowls are on at the same time? Is that a typo? What the fuck Pac12?

    Fox is trying to compete with ESPN for college football in the west, specifically the Pac-12 and Big 12.

    Last year was the first year Fox had a bowl game (Foster Farms). This year they have 2 bowls (Holiday and Foster Farms), and they're trying to run them against ESPN bowls. Hopefully this translates into good match-ups.
