I just hope it's not against Lou Holtz Jr.

:puke:

 

 

we beat him for our first bowl win.  He ran our program into the ground.  

 Think it's time we beat him again and never look back.

Exactly. Who schedules a bowl game on a Monday at 2:30pm when most people are working? Attendance won't reach 15k for this one.

Disney does, that's who.  They don't care about attendance, but TV eyes.  I think they assume that 20% of people will be off work that whole week just dying to watch college football.  It's ridiculous.

Meh, the opponent will be crap and it's in Miami. I mean if we were playing a bowling green type team at home 15 minutes away I would probably go but i''m not traveling to Miami Christmas week to watch what will most likely be a glorified spring game. This type of game is a lose/lose for us...if we win, nobody cares and if we lose, it takes the air out of our sails tremendously. If we are in Miami against a no name team I expect around 1,000-3,000 Bulls fans to show up on a Monday down there.

A few things it may be vs a PAC team in Miami. I hope it is since I live here and I'm off that Monday.

If you feel like Monday is the only option then schedule it at night so the locals can show up and support it after work. Monday at 2:30pm is a terrible decision.

it is sad because we have a few USF alumni that work with that bowl which is why they are pushing hard for USF to go there. The kickoff time sucks, so I will have to DVR it now

Yeah, looking at the bowl list, the Miami bowl is clearly in the lower bowels of the toilet bowls.

Yes date and time sucks. But here it's the deal this bowl is run by the AAC and the league is trying to build it, so that in next negotiations it can be moved to better date and time.

thats why last year Memphis played BYU as co-champion of the league.

this year expect Temple or USF to host either WKU or a PAC team

I'll be at any bowl my Bulls are in, regardless the opponent or venue.  We need a strong showing to let everyone that we are a vibrant program.
