Just telling another fan how much fun it was last year in Birmingham. Oh well, guess it's another year under the tree.

Very happy the players get this opportunity. They deserve it. Maybe JJ gets a one way ticket but doubt that. Also like playing unopposed on Xmas. I can relive the promise of 2008 or whenever that was.

CUSA bowl proceeds are equally split. No financial advantage in one bowl over another.

I don't know, we did ok at Birmingham last year. Better than Pitt did. Give us Vandy or a BCS opponent, and SMU fans will turnout for a bowl.

I don't think JJ really cares if we travel or not, just as long as he gets to go to Hawaii for a bowl game.

There is an allowance for the school. If the school wants to do more they can. I do not know how much the allowance is.
