I really don't care for our bowl or match up. I would trade with LSU in a heartbeat.

I think we got Michigan State because Saban use to coach there. It will actually helpy'all to go the cotton bowl because y'all recruit Texas.

im sorry if you cant understand something as simple as we played in the game last year. the bowls outside of the bcs title game are about money. You have team A with 1 more win than team B. thing is team A was just at this bowl last year, had a miserable fricking time. Team B was not at this bowl and hasnt been in a while.

team b is the logical choice for making the most money. Teams and fans dont want to go to the same place twice in a row. it needs to be spread out. Its why the cotton cap1 bowl and outback are all pretty close to equals. they make money on good teams and having different teams in it.

i really dont understand why our fans are having such a difficult time about this.

One of the Rivals writers thinks LSU and Bama got the best bowls outside of the BCS.

Best and Worst Bowl Matchups

On a side note, the article ranks the Fiesta Bowl (Connecticut vs. Oklahoma) #21 out of 35 (the other 4 BCS bowls occupy the top spots). Yet, another reason why the Big East should lose the automatic qualifier.
