frick you, I'm excited about going to a new place. The city is better than Tampa or Jacksonville. Nashville is awesome but I get tired of the music city bowl. This is something new and I'm glad for it. The bowl is no worse in prestige than gator, outback, music city.

I ate at an Outback the other day. Holy shite...the blooming onion is disgusting.

I thought I remembered that being good? It was the first time I had been to one in a long time.

Yeah I think, just like most things, it just seemed better when we were younger. I used to love the onions and bread. Haven't been to an Outback in at least 10 years though.

I guess I do not have the salt tolerance I had as a kid. It pretty much tasted like I was eating pure salt.

I think it's more prestigious than the Belk Bowl, certainly. Only once has it featured a matchup of top twenty-five teams.

Seven ranked teams have played the Belk Bowl since 2002
2002: West Virginia (15 AP, 13 Coaches, 15 BCS)
2004: Boston College (25 AP, NR Coaches, NR BCS)
2006: Boston College (23 AP, 24 Coaches, 24 BCS)
2007: Connecticut (NR AP, NR Coaches, 25 BCS)
2009: Pitt (17 AP, 16 Coaches, 17 BCS)
2014: Georgia (13 AP, 13 Coaches, 13 CFP) and Louisville (20 AP, 20 Coaches, 21 CFP)

Sixteen ranked teams have played in the Outback Bowl since 2002 (using 2003 Outback Bowl, as the game is played on 1/1)
2002: #11 Michigan
2003: #13 Iowa, #15 Florida
2004: #7 Georgia, #17 Wisconsin
2005: #16 Florida
2006: #17 Tennessee
2007: #16 Tennessee, #18 Wisconsin
2011: #17 Michigan State, #16 Georgia
2012: #10 South Carolina, #18 Michigan
2013: #14 LSU
2014: #15 Wisconsin, #14 Auburn

Additionally, there have been five ranked matchups in the Outback Bowl in the same time span.

Also, the Outback Bowl pays their teams almost $2,000,000 more than the Belk Bowl.

It's a more prestigious bowl. Don't get rustled.

At least there is a better job market for nurses. That's a plus.

More prestigious doesn't mean that it has prestige. This has nothing to do with the Belk Bowl. I know lawyer's like to spin shite, but you shouldn't put words in my mouth.

Exactly what prestige did the Outback Bowl have last year? Wisky was coming off a 59-0 shellacking, and Auburn was leaking oil everywhere. I am sure that people all over the USA put that gem on their schedule. FWIW and since you like facts, the Belk Bowl had more attendance and higher TV ratings than the Outback last year. That doesn't make either one prestigious.
