Well, no reason to win because there's no Hawaii Bowl (sarcasm font)

My order of preference:

Beef O'Brady: Florida in late December is a good thing. And St. Pete is closer to the water than Orlando!
Russell Athletic: Florida in late December is a good thing!
BBVA Compass: Those who went to Birmingham last time know it was a great trip.
Belk: Charlotte is a cool city.
Liberty: Memphis has some pretty solid BBQ.
Pinstripe: New York in late December? Was Anchorage closed down?

Pinstripe is probably my number 1, despite the weather. Christmas trip to NYC and Yankee Stadium, that is pretty awesome.

I don't want to go back to Birmingham. Been there, done that, give me something new!

I think that the overall quality of eligible bowls for AAC teams are a step up from the bowls in CUSA. That alone is movement in the right direction.

I would put Pinstripe Bowl as #1. Not cause I love NYC (hate it) or because Dec is such a great time of year in NYC, but because it is a MAJOR media market and we could use the positive exposure this year.

Went to the Pinstripe bowl 2 years ago and saw Rutgers and Iowa State play. Cool game.

No way we would ever be sent up there.

AAC just lost the Pinstripe Bowl after this coming season. We will be replaced by the Big 10.

It's pretty demeaning to have to put on a banner "Beef O' Brady Champion." Can't there be some really low base line to garbage as* corporate sponsor names we won't cross? Can't wait for the Cialis or Preparation H Bowl.

I'm looking forward to the S. C. Johnson & Son Drano Bowl, the Oxo Toilet Plunger Bowl, or the Dulcolax Bowel Prep Kit Bowl. Think of the amazing bowl swag the players would receive lol!
