I don't think there will be much interest from the LSU fanbase for returning to Central Florida for a bowl game two years in a row, particularly when we opened the season there.

I sure as hell hope we dont get stuck playing clemSUX. They are on a steady decline. Don't want any part of that

I'm not sure we are in a position to presently come off so high and mighty. An 8-4 LSU team may not get such a lofty invite.

Please explain to me the logic behind the PAC12/Big12 tie-in to the Independence Bowl. That's just makes no sense.

I think Independence Bowl had a tough time finding an SEC team to come in and play. It was like the team that finished 8 or 9. However you would have several top tier teams go on to bigger bowls and that would leave a not so great SEC team playing a lower team like. Vanderbilt vs. NC State. Or you would get matchups like Duke vs. Temple that would not have regional appeal. It's all about the dollars and securing a major sponsor. Signing a contract like Pac12/Big 12 matchup helps with that and tv ratings, Now Pac 12 looks gone the Independence Bowl will probably revisit
