CUSA Bowl Selection Order

I would say they wouldn't make SMU play in its own stadium twice, but UH played in AFB two years in a row, so who knows.
Just for something different I hope it's TicketCity.

Hope SMU plays ticketcity, but have a feeling that AFB will be vocal in getting us. They want us since that will likely bring the most people to it. Its a smaller stadium so it makes the bowl look better if we get the same crowd as last time like 30k. I think Cotton bowl would be great for SMU since I imagine the headlines in DMN would say return to the old days.

"The league's champion - unless it's Houston and the Cougars go to a BCS game - heads to the AutoZone Liberty Bowl, but after that there is not a set order of selection. The other bowls are the Beef 'O' Brady's Bowl in St. Petersburg, Fla.; the Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl in Dallas, against BYU; the R+L Carrier New Orleans Bowl; the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl; and the TicketCity Bowl in Dallas"

correction: The league's champion, unless it's June Jones-coached SMU or undefeated Houston, heads to the Autozone Liberty Bowl ......

With us out of the Liberty Bowl running I wonder if we might get our invitation to wherever as soon as today or if they will wait until after the CUSA Championship? Would not be surprised if it was soon if it is Hawaii or AFB. But I guess it will most likely be..............next week.

Can't imagine it w/two CUSA slots to fill in Dallas. It seems to be a given the winner of today's Marshall/ECU game will go there since it's the located closer to the eastern CUSA teams.
