Pretty sure the conference isn't going to do us any favors on our bowl. Unless we go to the NY6 game we might get something sub-par.

Is there a set destination for the conference champion (if not NY6)?

I don't think we've won a bowl game in over ten years.
So I will pretty much take any bowl as long as we win!

Agreed. B'ham is a good football town. Lots of casual football fans in that town. And most of them wear Crimson Tide red to the stadium, which makes us look good.
