How many teams with worse records and lower rankings will play in a January bowl while LSU plays in a NYE bowl? Looking at the projections it could be quite a few. Is this just how the chips are falling with tie ins and such or is this punishment for winning ugly all year?

The difference between the chick fil a bowl and the bcs championship came down to les miles not trying to get a first down at the end of the bama game.

It doesn't have the same meaning anymore. Heart of Dallas Bowl is on 1/1. GoDaddy.com is in 1/6. The Gator Bowl is a lower SEC bowl and is on 1/1.

We travel very well as a fan base but, if they do evaluate the entertainment value of a football team, we may get bumped by other teams. the CLM factor may balance everything.

it is what happens when you lose to Bama. That game now is basically our season every year going forward......it killed our chances at winning the SEC and a NC. WHo cares about a crap non BCS bowl game? there are a million bowl games now. totally useless. playoffs cannot get here fast enough. hopefully even with a lone loss to bama we can run the tablke and get to #4 and make the playoffs should this happen again in 2014.

sadly we have another year of no playoffs.

I'd sure like to hear the sunshine pumpers hyping that 10-2 record now.

Seems like their defense was always within a discussion of going to a BCS or top "second tier" bowl.

Who gives a frick if we go to the vagisil bowl or the weed eater bowl? There's only one that counts and we ain't going. Another thing you sunshine pumpers aren't thinking about. aTm. They go 10-2 in their first sec season. We don't just have Alabama to worry about now in the west and aTm will get better. Lets see how Leslie handles the next few years... Meanwhile enjoy the chicken fricker bowl.

Haven't you been reading the rant? Ranters are excited about going to any bowls as long as it's not a BCS bowl. Pheww...thank Gawd we're out of the running for the Sugar...right?

Being a January bowl doesn't mean shite anymore. Have you seen the crap that's played during that month?

Well a 6-6 ga tech could get the auto bid to the orange bowl. Thats what happens when all other conferences are inferior. Not one conference has a top 6 like the sec.

The Sec is set up for the future. We will most likely always have 2 teams in the playoffs and we will have tie ins to the sugar and orange bowl.

I don't understand why the rest of the college football world cannot see the genius of Coach Miles. I completely do not get that.

All he does is win.
