latest predictions have you in the Cotton again. It's a nice bowl, no doubt. Not saying it isn't;

would y'all prefer that at this point, or do you want a different destination? Try out some of the Fla bowls (my understanding is it's been forever since you've played in one of those)?

Note- not a troll, or trying to say team X should be Cotton-bound instead (in my case, I'm an LSU fan). I'm just thinking that if it were me, I'd rather tie the bowl trip into somewhere new (Orlando, for example) and make a nice holiday excursion out of it. Y'all have done the DFW Cotton thing a whole lot, and other than it being considered a 'good bowl', it would be pretty meh to me.

Yay, we've joined the SEC. Now, we get to go to a Texas bowl, just like we alway have

Where are your preferences?

really sick of playing Big 12 teams.

I wished we would have gotten Capital One Bowl last year.

Would prefer not playing a B12 team again. That said, the cotton would be better than the peach or the BBVA compass. So there's that.

Would prefer to destroy a Big Ten team.

Also, if we win out, we're going to the BCS. There's NO WAY the BCS will pass up Johnny Manziel's last game.

I wish the bowl tie-ins changed more in general. Too many SEC v. Big 10 games. Would rather it be spread out - add a PAC 12 v. SEC tie in or two, add another Big 12 or ACC tie-in, etc.

SEC seems to play and usually beat the same Big 10 teams over and over again.

If it's not the BCSNC game, don't really care which bowl it is. I don't want to play some Big Twatever team. Would rather get some diversity.

Not stoked about playing a big12 team. They don't have as much to lose (perception-wise) as we do.

Expectations are to win the LSU game and get a better bowl than the Cotton.

As far as matchups go, I'd probably prefer to go someplace other than the Cotton Bowl. Would love to get a chance to beat down one of those Big Ten teams. As far as travel goes, I'm not sure which of those games I'd be willing to shell out the money for to travel, while Dallas is a day trip. If we manage 9-3 or better, I'll probably make the trip regardless. If we slide to the finish at 8-4 or worse, it's going to depend on how attractive the trip looks cost-wise, and fun-wise.

Definitely would much rather Capital One or another matchup than the Cotton, we've been there plenty in the last few years, want to see us play a Big 10/ACC team in a new venue

Would be lucky to get cotton bowl honestly.
