Horrible! 1 game with the PAC and the rest vs CUSA, MAC and maybe 1 AAC. WTF?? 3 games with CUSA? CUSA is basically the old Sun Belt.

Even if the MWC goes 6-0, we will get ZERO respect.
 
Looking at that list, its now essential that Wyoming get to the New Mexico Bowl. Vegas might be too much out of reach for this team......you can bet MWC teams will be clawing to get that last NM Bowl featuring a Pac-12 opponent. Its our last chance to see Wyoming vs. California, Oregon State, Washington, etc. After this year, its all Wyoming vs. Marshall, UTEP, etc. The Vegas Bowl would be the only opportunity to play a Pac-12 school, and history says you'll need at best 2 losses to get into that game.

Still shake my head at the Hawaii Bowl. What a shit job that staff does. There isn't ONE BCS conference that wouldn't mind sending their 6th or 7th place team to the islands for a bowl game? Not even one? Iowa, California, and Texas Tech are always better options than the best of C-USA. The Aloha and Oahu Bowl's used to easily attract those conferences.

LOL I'm not surprised at the Hawaii Bowl. Hell, if UH doesn't go to that game this year, you can kiss the Hawaii Bowl bye-bye 'cos it'll be dis-certified due to lack of attendance.

It could....but knowing Aloha Stadium, they'll "give away" a ton of tickets and then claim 35K showed up when barely 15K showed. :roll:

Ah....the "Wonder Blunder" route I see. :roll:
 
Too much. Too many. It getting to be that bowl games are like assholes - everybody's got one, and they're all pretty much the same.

I remember when you had to have a pretty damn good football team to make a bowl (conference champs at the very least). Too many bowls......kind of like "everyone gets a ribbon" crap.

I also remember when Nick Saban said if you don't win your conference you shouldn't be able to play in the BCS National Title game. Then they didn't win the SEC and he thought his team still played in the BCS Title game.
