There's not much difference in playing OU or Clemson. They are only two spots different in AP poll (#12 and #14) and both are 10 - 2 overall with 1 conference loss.

OU or Clemson.

Yes there is.

LSU - OU is sexier than LSU - Clemson

Apparently, you haven't watched our defense struggle over the last three games with exactly the type of challenges that Clemson presents

The rest will be the cure to that.

Also, I don't know how you can characterize a ten point win as a "blow out."

USCe won with their backup QB.

Yep. Hope the players have greater enthusiasm than do the fans, because, you can bet Bama Dabo and Tajh will be amped for it.

If our players can't get motivated to play a top 15 team on national television on primetime in an NFL stadium on NYE, then they don't deserve to be college athletes

All these people boycotting the bowl act like it will change something.

Holy hell, when did a reporter's twitter feed become anything resembling official.

Admit it, you wanted to jump the gun so your thread can be stickied

So we'll push their shite in prime time on NYE. I dot see the big deal. What's the fricking difference between each bowl if it isn't a BCS bowl? It's not money since we split it equally anyway.... The difference in exposure is minimal. We bring our own.

This is what I've been saying. After the BCS, there really is no difference.

Should have been Cotton, but at least we're playing a decent team. Ticks me off that we get shoved aside again (3rd time we've had to send a 10 win team to Atlanta for this game).

Not good to play someone ranked that far below you...it's a no-win situation, and the players usually don't get up for that kind of game...the last minute of the LSU-BAMA game is the difference between playing for the BCSNCG and playing a #14 team in a non-new-year's day bowl...
