re: ESPN Grinding with its bowl projections

No lie. As far as fan experience and atmosphere, CFA is just under BCS games. The Florida bowls suck and the Cotton has gotten better since moving to JerryWorld.

Yep. Whatever LSU fans may say, the CFA is a really good bowl and is about to get more high profile. My only problem with the CFA is A) familiarity and B) ACC matchups. CFA does much better than most in setting matchups, but you see a ton of Clemson in that game.

Right now, from a fan/football perspective (not a hierarchy perspective) I'd rank them:

Cotton
CFA
Florida bowls
Music City

In truth, there are times with the Music City bowl is better.

The Florida games are just sort of boring, in mediocre locations, and with too much mediocre Big 10 action. If we could get a Pac 12/Big 12 team in the Cap One, that game would instantly be much, much better.
