Pop-Tarts Bowl
Camping World Stadium (Orlando, Florida)
3:30 p.m., ABC
Bonagura: SMU vs. Kansas State
Schlabach: Clemson vs. Iowa State

I don't understand why both of them picked Syracuse for the Gator Bowl. Would Syracuse be more attractive to the folks in Jacksonville than an 11/2-10/3 SMU team?

Holliday bowl payout is higher at 6 .3 million

Half of Florida is from New York, if that matters.

True, but how many of them care about Syracuse football? If it's more than a minuscule percentage, I'd be surprised.

That's surprising considering that bowl's ranking in the bowl lineups.

Will they bring back the extra bowl in Frisco for two teams that would otherwise be left out?
