Maybe charmin will be the sponsor and it can actually be the toilet bowl. It would be very appropriate for the level of play that we'll see :(

How much could it even cost to sponsor one of these garbage bowl games? Get the conference to sponsor it, call it the "American Bowl", make it another pointless patriotic [deleted]...

I don't care what they call it. I'd be OK with a December trip to Florida to see the Mustangs play.

while Beef 'O' Brady's has been an amusing name it really made the bowl sound low rent.

hell, I don't even think BOB is a good name for the restaurant chain it comes from. It makes it sound like a cheap canned meat that you would find at a Piggly Wiggly in some random East Texas town that time forgot.

Even when you find out what BOB is it turns out they suck. They are Irish themed sports pubs that aims to be family friendly so no hard liquor is served. :?


IMO (which is of no value b/c its not my money :lol: ) they really need to emphasize that the game is in Florida and they need to have a name that is not purely a corporate sponsor so they can build name recognition over time.

Since the city is known as the Sunshine City I think something like the (insert sponsor name) St Petersburg Sunshine Bowl would be good. Its not perfect but I think that gives an idea of what I mean.
