ESPN has us staying home for bowl season and playing wither UAB or Mid. Tenn. State. Both of those teams are playing well this year. UAB would provide the bigger challenge, but Mid. Tenn. State would probably provide more buzz for fan base. If we don't at least make it to the conference championship game I think we end up playign at Ray J for bowl season. Thoughts?

Bad Boy Mowers Gasparilla Bowl

Raymond James Stadium, Tampa, Florida
Dec. 20, 8 p.m. (ESPN)

Bonagura: UAB vs. USF
Sherman: USF vs. Middle Tennessee

I finally move away from Murfreesboro, and finally the USF vs MTSU rematch is on....ugh

Oh, that will bring in the out of towners for that game. I hear MTSU travels well.

John, is ACC the main partner for Gasparilla or are you saying you don't think CUSA will have enough eligable teams to fill their slot?  Everywhere I'm looking it says Gasparilla is AAC vs. CUSA.

ACC and C-USA alternate.

Temple defeated FIU last season.

Thanks John, great news!  How can ESPN prognosticators even get their own game wrong?

My assumption is that they just look at the metrics they use to determine who wins and are already discounting some programs.

That's not to say they're right or wrong, but there is a half a season worth of football left for most programs.

Would like to see FSU get to 6 wins and face them at home or Miami stumble the rest of the year and get them at home, however, Duke would be nice as well.

This would be optimum. The bowl committee would jump all over this.

A 7-5 FSU or Miami in RayJay I could more than live with.

I hate that bowl (any bowl before Xmas is trash), but that would be a fun matchup.

This team needs to win at least 10 games. The team needs to go to another Bowl. I'm sorry but, the Gasparilla Bowl won't cut it.

This...I hope we want better than a Dec 20 game at our own stadium. I mean what are the bowl activities???? A trip to Bush Gardens followed by a walk down Ybor City? God I would feel bad for the USF players.
