A 4 day bowl game will play hell with our depth.

[George S. Patton]

Perfect time and celebrate Christmas with the Mustangs when they take on West Virginia.

[Nacho]

I predict that we will be in this bowl but because the date is a secret we will miss it. Just our luck.

[RGV Pony]

oh hell. Nothing to bring you down like 8000 souls watching a game in a baseball stadium. A year later we'll be reading a story about how much money it cost SMU to go to the bowl, and the bowl's name will be prefaced with "now-defunct."

I predict that bowl will do everything it can to have UCF or USF play in it every year for about 5 years.

[Stallion]

I wouldn't worry about since I bet only CUSA East teams are going to play in this game/

[jkflamebo]

the east teams can take this bowl and we'll just take the liberty bowl every year

[J.T.supporta]

i predict this bowl will be field with an at-large team being that i dont think we will have enough bowl eligible teams in our conference.

[SMU 86]

According to this report in rivals.com per AP, with the addition of the St. Petersburg bowl C-USA will no longer play in the PappaJohns.com Bowl so C-USA is not gaining another bowl opportunity. The Big East will now play the SEC in the PappaJohns.com Bowl.

The SEC is indeed in the PapaJohns.com Bowl. Here's the link http://www.papajohnsbowl.com/

So C-USA is pushed farther down the totem-bowl
