It's not bowl, but the opponent

I've predicted and blasted the chic fil a bowl and LSU's inclusion over the last week, but real disappointment will come if we play a truly mediocre, unranked team. If we're sitting at No. 7 and playing a 5 loss unranked team, I'm pissed, real pissed. If it's Clemson at say 16 or 17 with a high profile QB it will be ok and fun to blow them out. Lets hope we have a decent opponent.

I'd rather play Clemson in the Chick fil a bowl, than play a crappy big ten team in a more prestigious bowl (cap 1).

Why would we want to play a Clemson team who just got killed S. Carolina? This will not help us at all. It can only hurt if we do not play well, and limp to a boring win like we have with every inferior opponent we have played this year.

Michigan won't even be ranked and the game would be around noon. Screw that

It's still Michigan and a national brand. Nobody cares about Clemson outside SC, even if they were undefeated.

Same can be said for craptastic B1G. I'm not saying we should like it but the bigger insult comes by playing a grossly inferior team like VA Tech or GA Tech. It was BCS or nothing. We have to hope for a quality opponent.

If the rankings fall into place after next weekend, there's a possibility that the MAC champ could get a BCS bid. Imagine Florida fans disappointment if they're playing Kent St in the Sugar.

That would be hilarious. At least Utah in 08 was a good team. Kent St? Please.

We get to see them next year in tiger Stadium at least.

What would be funnier, would be if they were the 2013 Sugar Bowl champs.

Yeah, we could host both Sugar Bowl teams next year, with the Golden Flashes as the reigning champ
