have to give Brett props for getting the scoop early on this one. Not his fan but he did do some reporting here.

****...that means we traded Gator for Champs.

The money isn't that much of a drop, but it hurts the prestige factor

Well... we're getting Mountain West treatment.  And it's our own fault...

* No team in the Top 25...

* No dominate team in a national championship picture year to year...

* Most schools with very little recent football history...

* Most schools with small fan bases who don't travel well...

We need the Big East to win as many OOC games as possible, especially against BCS conferences over the next few years.

We need two or three Big East teams to be Top 25 at the end of every season... with one in the Top 10.

We need a Big East school to get into the "perennial" status...

We need all Big East schools to sell every ticket to every bowl game...

The money is actually an increase from 2.25 to 2.4 million.

That is a high price trip to get all the way out there.   It was a nice bowl when we played there, but considering the cost I'd rather go to Charlotte.  Having the number two in Orlando will also be pretty sweet.   Nice low cost location for us and we should have a great crowd.   It will be interesting to see if CUSA keeps its tie to St. Pete or if the bowl opts to upgrade to another BCS partner.   I don't want to repeat at St. Pete, but I think it will be a nice bowl with time.

That's really okay by me. El Paso sucked... worse than Birmingham.

Thats ok? Our bowl lineup is a freaking joke. Wait till ND goes to the champs and our number 2 is playing the ACC # 6 in the car care bowl. That sucks

With the ACC #5 bolting for that opens a slot in Nashville... in the Gaylor Hotels Music City Bowl...

It could also open a slot in the EagleBank bowl in Washington DC (ACC  #8)...
