Looks like the Liberty Bowl will be our destination. We have a lot of Alumni in Memphis, and there's a lot of history with us in this bowl game (Bear's first game he coached was here against Penn St in 1959, and the last game he coached in Jan of 82). We'll get to play the #1 team out of C-USA, which is probably Tulsa, so that'll just be a Jim Dandy of a bowl trip.
Good thing for me though, because I'll get to go to the game and then come home right afterwards. Simple enough...haha. Liberty Bowl games are always freezing around here. The temperature sits right at 20 degrees around kick off and either stays there or gets colder as the game goes on.
Oh well...enough about that.
It's looking like we'll find a way to lose the LSU game. Close, but no cigar again. I'm sure we'll come out and look horid against FIU and MSU before playing LSU and Auburn close. Auburn hasn't really played away from home, except for a trip to Starkville in the 2nd game of the season and a horrible display against Steve Spurrier's Gamecocks on a Thursday night in Columbia. If we're going to pull out a big win, it'll be against Auburn this year. And that might make my year. :-)
So here's the outlook for the rest of the season:
beat FIU by a couple of touchdowns beat MSU by a touchdown lose to LSU by 3 points lose to Auburn by 3 points
7-5 season. Either Shreveport, Memphis, or Nashville for the bowl game. Shreveport we get to play a weak Big 12 team. Nashville we get to play a weak Big 10 team. Memphis we get to play the best C-USA team. Hard to decide which one I would want to see more. Whichever one it is, I'm sure I'll be there.
