Folks in the Miami Ohio "circles" saying it'll be them versus Ark State in the Camelia.

Toledo is 9-3. To say they would be a disapointment is just..... I certainly wouldn't mind a shot at beating them which is something stAte hasn't been able to do.
As a conference, holistically it would be a letdown to play anyone from the MAC if a game against ConfUSA or the AAC is available.

Toledo would be a good opponent but I would still prefer a game against someone from the other two conferences.
Why is playing a 9-3 MAC worse than anyone fr CUSA. Their champion have 3 loses while the MAC has a top 20 champ. I'd also take Toledo over 6-6 UCF as the lower half of the AAC isn't any better than any other G5.

Toledo is the only other MAC team I'm cool with. I also hate how most of the mac teams don't have fanbases due to their "midweek maction" marketing ploy.

I am curious how/why MOntgomery would take us over ArkSt, which wasn't there last year and is slightly closer.

If Toledo is slated for Montgomery, then StAte not likely going there.

I would be interested in what ticket presales looked like for the bowls. I don't see us going back to Montgomery this year. It wouldn't surprise me if tickets sales would be down for a return trip.

I'll go back to Montgomery, had a good time last year. But I did sign up for four tickets to NO and Cure, none for others to skew the numbers.

Nice call. Sounds like your source is pretty solid. Can you ask about future scheduling? :D

Future scheduling was brought up to this person before. But I'm not sharing the response from this person. :D

If South Alabama and ULL win, App could be passed over for the Sun Belt bowls. At that point, ull is likely to New Orleans, Troy to Mobile and Idaho to Arizona. Arkansas State and South Alabama could end up in Montgomery and Orlando respectively, thus the chance another bowl with an opening will be the spot for Appalachian.
Did you even read his article? USA has "provisional" status and WON'T get selected until ALL bowl slots are filled Thus, they will NOT get selected before App, because they CAN'T be.
I thought you said South Alabama couldn't go ahead of another Sun BELT team. Oops looks like you were wrong.

ULL was the first team picked (New Orleans}; Troy second pick (Mobile); App State 3rd pick; stAte fourth pick and fans burning up over this...LMAO!!! Idaho was fifth pick and USA was last option available to others bowls.
