MW 2 or 3 vs ACC 4 or 5 will run it out of business? I highly doubt that.
I have a hard time believing that North LA will support the Mountain West or ACC like they support they have supported the SEC or Big 12...I hope I'm wrong but I don't see either of these conferences bringing in a big fan base nor do I see much of a local base for either conference...This is sad because the Indy Bowl is in the top tier of the oldest bowls. They have been around for over 30 years and have had some very good games. Everyone on these boards tend to bash the Independence bowl but you never hear any bashing from the teams that come. They are treated very well. Not every team can play in a BCS Bowl every year...

Seriously?
First off consider the fact it's in Shreveport where no one wants to go.
Second off consider the location in comparison to the MWC and ACC teams. Outside of Texas Christian in the MWC and FSU/GT in the ACC you're looking at absurdly long distances to travel for the possible teams that could play it.
Lastly none of the fanbases travel very well in the ACC. A couple can travel okay but most don't travel well at all. MWC you'll be lucky to get a good draw out of Utah/BYU coming all the way down to Shreveport.
