Also purchased 4 tickets to the game. I can't wait!!! Now need to reserve a hotel (which seems fairly reasonable). The host hotel, Hyatt Regency seems a bit far from downtown Birmingham. Are most fans staying there? I have also seen the Sheraton downtown, Embassy Suites and Aloft mentioned in the post. Which one would be the best for a fun bowl vibe and to be walking distance to things?

Birmingham Bowl just feels like good fit for Gamecocks.
So what happens with the Armed Forces Bowl in Fort Worth, Texas if Navy heads to the Cotton Bowl? Will another AAC fill the space? Decent bowl game if it's against a Big 12 team.
So, if Navy gets ahead of WMU and ends up in the Cotton Bowl, can an AAC team end up in the Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl in Fort Worth, Texas vs a Big 12 school (although right now they have N.Texas projected ugh lol)
I agree. The venue is gorgeous and the usf crowd was alive for most of the game. Definitely sounds like the in game experience didn't come through on the television. Fun bowl game although the outcome was not what we wanted.
