Will we get a Bowl invite immediately after Temple beats UCONN?

yes me too! I just hope they do that this season. With the new AD and all, I'm not sure they will.

Pretty sure they will keep doing this as it is a nice tradition and generates a small income/exposure. Funny, I am not aware of any other college that does this.

Regardless if we get to play in the AAC Championship, I hope we get a good (ranked) P5 team.

 

It would be disappointing to have this team play a school like Toledo, Western Michigan, Marshall, Western Kentucky, etc.

Also Plus about the Cure Bowl is there will be a free Joe Nichols and Jana Kramer concert.

who? I was hoping they'd get The Cure to play.

Only reason I'd prefer the "let's see how terrible a sponsor we can get" St. Pete bowl is that traffic in and out of the schitrus bowl is about as fun as being punched in the groin. 

I agree though that I would much rather see USF try their luck against a P5 team. Let's see how they do against a big boy team, beating an Eastern Michigan doesn't really show us, and the nation much about how much they have actually improved

well, that is what is going to happen because the aac is only interested in butts in the seats not quality of match up. Get used to it as the Florida bowls suck ass.

I've been to 30+ bowl games, and I rate the SPB at the Trop as the worst bowl venue out of all of them.

Maybe the Trop isn't the best stadium, and certainly not meant for football, but that said I'd rather come here and play a game in a big warehouse than play a bowl game in Detroit, Toronto, Mobile, freaking Shreveport, El Paso (the year USF went to the Sun we were ready to go, but just couldn't bring ourselves to travel to northern Mexico) the Citrus Bowl games, Bahamas, Birmingham or Boise.

The only reason the Florida bowls "suck" is that there's so many of them, but compared to every non-BCS bowl game locale, they are paradise.

Give me better teams over location ANYDAY.

Yeah but outside of the BCS and new years games, there aren't many matchups that are THAT much better.

In terms of our conference I would rather be in Birmingham or Annapolis playing a P5 game versus a game in Florida against Southern Miss or South Alabama.

The only possible saving grace you might have is the fact that ESPN will want to see USF face a better team.  But Navy already accepted the bid to the Military Bowl, so that leaves Birmingham... which will come down to Temple, Houston, or USF.
