Bowl Prediction for the Mustangs [ESPN]

Postby rooster » Sun Sep 13, 2009 6:27 pm

Bruce Feldman at ESPN is predicting a bowl berth for the Ponies in the EagleBank Bowl. It's definitely early and probably premature but it goes to show what winning will do for a program. Keep it up Mustangs! Congrats on win against UAB!

It's in Washington, D.C. -- Dec. 29. Didn't know it existed either.

Think it's brand new (or a year old). They've got tie-ins with the service academies, I think.

I would be glad to go to ANY Bowl, but we've still got along way to go.

Houston/Arkansas in the Liberty Bowl is a real possibility and would be a great match up. I am counting on our defeat of Houston keeping them out of a BCS Bowl.

Write it down in ink: if we're bowl-eligible, we're headed to Hawaii.

That said ... we have a long way to go. Let's not cross any bridges before we get to them.

We are still five wins away form bowl talk. Too early to talk about bowls when we have another long road trip ahead. Beat WSU and don't worry about bowls for now.

We have to talk about it now. After 7 losses it is too late.

If it were to happen, I would love a matchup with an old SWC member. Arkansas or Baylor would be cool.
