Maybe they can go to the game after they play in Frisco

Options for an opponent in Frisco seem to be either Louisiana Tech or Northern Illinois.

Looks like UH is heading to Hawaii.

Neither opponent is good publicity. We really need to hang like 70 so that the American gets more respect.

We need to win the game period. Whoever wants to be there generally wins these types of bowl games

SI still has SMU going to the Boca Raton Bowl to play FAU. A high scoring (and tough) matchup.

Nothern Illinois would be a significantly tougher opponent than Louisiana Tech who has performed well against tough competition
