I know we have a schedule/bowl thread down towards the bottom but this is just about what bowl you would like to see us in this year if we hit number 6.
I would like for us to get the Birmingham Bowl, I can go stay with my sister and hang out with my nephews for a few days and go to the game. Add to this that competition shouldn't be fierce so we should be likely to get a win over an AAC opponent rather than going to the Peach bowl for an at large or another bowl to face a top 4 team in a power 5 conference. we seem to always get matched up to a better team and lose bowl games.

This almost never happens actually. We have been the favorite in probably every bowl game we've played the last 10-12 years except for against FSU.
We choked on our balls a couple of times against Wisconsin teams but we should have been the better team both times.
Other opponents Northwestern, Virginia, Clemson, Nebraska, VT. We were the better team in all those games.

I like the National Championship. It will be fun watching it from Flowery Branch this year. I will have plenty of money to buy food and booze for my friends. I wont be wasting it on any bowl tickets.

You are better than that. They will beat us by 17 or more.
Yesterday ripped the heart out.

four of them had us with teams ranked ahead of us and a lot of them had neither of us ranked. seems like the only time we play someone ranked lower than us is when we are top 10.

The more we lose the more beer I drink. It's a win-win as far as I'm concerned

2000, 2002, and 2014 are the only games we played where the other team was better than us.

True. But we could also just stay at Guntersville.

Possibly but we were a clear underdog going into that game. Yes we definitely should have won that game though.

You know, lately you and I agree on a lot. What say we burn this bitch to the ground together.
