Re: So - 7 wins. Where we going?
Posted: Sun Nov 26, 2017 12:46 amI wish we could get that San Diego bowl. That would be a dream! If we get Frisco, let’s call it FordNorth like BK Tulsa was MoodyNorth.

Posted: Sun Nov 26, 2017 11:48 amyeah there's a lot of talk on the AAC fan forum that an AAC team may get a spot as a backup bowl partner in Independence Bowl

Posted: Sun Nov 26, 2017 2:13 pmIndependence Bowl would be a great landing spot. We would get to go to a bowl that is within driving distance in a location we probably won’t go back to due to conference tie-ins and the players get to go out of town.

Right. ACC doesn't have enough teams qualifying.
If we got the Independence Bowl, which conference would provide the opponent?
Re: So - 7 wins. Where we going?
Posted: Sun Nov 26, 2017 2:22 pmThe Independence Bowl website shows tie-ins with ACC, SEC, C-USA, and the American.

Posted: Sun Nov 26, 2017 2:44 pmSEC likely won't fill space. Also possibility Memphis could land in Liberty Bowl as it has a secondary Bowl Affiliation with AAC

Posted: Sun Nov 26, 2017 2:46 pmAmerican Athletic Bowl Ties
The American Athletic Conference doesn’t have a true pecking order. The bowl matchups are based on best possible games and geography.
– AutoNation Cure Bowl vs. Sun Belt
– Boca Raton vs. Conference USA
– Birmingham Bowl vs. SEC
– Hawaii Bowl vs. Mountain West
– Frisco Bowl vs. Sun Belt
– Military Bowl vs. ACC
– Bad Boy Mowers Gasparilla Bowl vs. Conference USA
The American Athletic has secondary partnerships with the AutoZone Liberty and Camping World Independence

That's why Frisco would be good. At least the players' "family and friends" would be there in the stands watching.
