So pony pride on rivals said that JJ and the bowl director think we are going to get an invite. Is this really valid? I really hope not...

CUSA doesn't have a slot in that bowl this year


Its on their website, its weird that BBVA isnt on there.


BBVA is only a CUSA bowl if Liberty picks a Big East team instead of a CUSA team.

Heart of Dallas is now owned by CUSA but has to honor the previous TicketCity bowl contract, which called for B12 vs B10 this year with CUSA as a backup in case one of those conferences could not provide enough bowl-eligible teams.

(3) - TicketCity Bowl becomes Heart Of Dallas Bowl. It will try to match a Big 12 team with the #7 pick from the Big Ten. CUSA and MAC teams are next in the pecking order.

Any further questions?

Crossing fingers for Heart of Dallas. Big Ten opponent would be a good challenge

Heart of Dallas will not happen. See my post above for proof.
