Why the hell do we not have a bowl tie-in with a Pac 12 team? We essentially play 3 games against each against the ACC, Big 10, and Big 12. Give us some variety. I hate playing the same teams all the time.

Travel is likely a big issues with this happening.

This is the #1 reason. Unless it was a bowl game in Texas, you are going to have one fan base that doesn't want to travel. How many fans from the southeast would go out to California, Arizona or Nevada for a bowl game? on the flip side, how many PAC-12 fans would come to Florida, Tennessee or Georgia?

We used to. Or it occasionally happened with the Sun Bowl. Alabama played there three times in the 1980s. I don't think an SEC program has been invited since 1988.

PAC-10 plays B1G all the time and half of the SEC is the same distance away. They just chicken.
