It’s weird to see two regular-season rematches in the first round of the playoffs.

I still can’t believe we backed into a bowl game.

Hopefully we can win

True. BYU, Notre Dame, and Miami want no part of Vandy. And I’m proud of Vandy for going to a bowl to play a good team without whining and running home like crybaby Notre Dame.

Weather for that one always seems to suck but at least you get to go to Nashville instead of some N Texas or FL bowl that’s hard to get to, generally cold and less fun before the game.

If Nashville ever got a retractable roof they would definitely become a playoff level setting.

Not sure if the dome they are building is retractable or not, but they are building a dome that will put them in that catagory.

No one beats Atlanta as far as accessibility for travel, but once I'm there Ill take Nashville all day other than the hotel situation which can be surprisingly expensive for the south due to all the growth.

But food, entertainment, etc? Give me Nashville.

It is actually stupid. This could have been so easily changed to prevent this.

Don't screw this up LSU. I have to live in Houston and I don't need to hear a bunch of UH fans talking about how they took down an SEC team, even if it is you.

Next year the will but, even without a roof, it's one of the more fun bowl sites.

They wanted to kill the possibilities of two SEC teams advancing by pairing OU vs UA.

Maybe they kept Bama in the #9 spot because they believed the Tide would have a better shot than Miami of knocking the Sooners out of the playoffs.
