Really don't wanna go back to Houston again. Would prefer Nashville, Memphis or Jacksonville.

I remember when we used to bitch about going to The Capitol One Bowl and Peach Bowl.

Those were the days.

Just give us a big name opponent and i'll be happy.

However Texas Bowl vs Texas is by far the best option.

I miss calling it the Gator Bowl. Screw these corporate names. X bowl as presented by whomsoever.

I have been wanting the Taxslayer all along. Bama fans are going to be laughing their arse off.

I think Taxslayer would be a poor pick. It's during the middle of the day, the day after New Years. I expect ratings to be low and doubt many possible recruits will see it. Furthermore, I doubt LSU fans would attend it well with the date and distance. I hope it's just wishful thinking on the part of a journalist who wants to spend the week in Florida. From a program perspective, Houston is the best choice. Memphis and Nashville would be a close second/third.

Also, Taxslayer is a HORRIBLE name.

I'd rather have the Belk bowl with ND. I'd love to smack them around again.
