This is good news. We have a chance to win. This is not the best time to face BYU or a big 10 team with our injured QB.

I want to finish this season with a win. Being embarrassed in a bowl game doesn't help the program.

FIU will get up to play us and it will be a de facto home game for them. How will losing to them help the program?

The opponent sucks donkey balls but I think its a cool bowl.

Its the only game on that night unlike the AFB which is @ 11am when no one in the country will be watching.

Well I did hear one of our players say the teams wants to go to this bowl game if not Hawaii. But Hawaii could still win tonight, which makes me think this is BS. Because we go to Hawaii Bowl if they win... So we couldnt possibly be a for sure thing in the SPB ..

So TCU backdoors into a BCS bowl and we play a Sun Belt team. Lol. I love it.

Just because it is in the same state doesn't mean it will be a "home game" for FIU.

Then again, they won their bowl game last year. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida_In ... mpionships

Beat Louisville . But like I said. No way this is true because we go to the Hawaii bowl if they win tonight...

They definitely have the tools to beat us especially with McD certain to throw at least 2 picks.

Someone explain to me how losing to a Sun Belt team is better than losing to a Big Ten team

FIU would beat us. Our guys would have a GREAT vacation though, because that's what its all about...give me a [deleted] break, would rather play any other conference than the sun belt

Dont forget that at least one pick will come when we have a 1st and goal opportunity.

Those are my favorites.
