Sounds like Tiger Nation is afraid of a rematch.


No.

Same team at the same bowl 2 years in a row stinks. Not to mention it is in Atlanta. I live there half the time, but Atlanta, Dallas, Nashville, Shreveport, Charlotte and Memphis all suck as bowl destinations.

I may be completely alone in this, and I know no one wants to go to Atlanta again, but I wouldn't mind our team having a shot at Clemson again. Last time we played them, we had zilch on the line. Although the Fried Chicken Sandwich Bowl Title isn't all that noteworthy, I do think our guys would be motivated to play, want a little redemption, and be more fired up to play them then say a mediocre Nebraska team.

The head of the chick fil a bowl was on atl radio yesterday and predicted LSU to outback or cotton. So I'm guessing they aren't looking at LSU

I'd like to see a rematch. My brother in law is a Clemson alum and he still gives me crap about last year's game.

personally I don't think this happens. There have been rumors that the outback will take us and they come from good LSU sources.

I believe one of three scenarios happen

1
Auburn Beats Mizzou
Cap one takes USCe
Cotton takes Mizzou
Outback takes LSU

maybe the outback takes UGA but based on the rumors I have heard I don't think it happens

2
Mizzou beats Auburn
Cap one takes Auburn
Cotton takes LSU
Outback takes USCe

3
Mizzou beats Auburn
Cap one takes USCe
Cotton Takes Auburn
Outback takes LSU



again I don't think the outback takes UGA over us, we are higher ranked and have a better record. Both QB's are out for the bowl game so that doesn't effect their decision, plus both had good finishes to their last game.

Joe Alleva earning that pay check if he lets this happen. He didn't have to worry about bowl games during his time at Duke.

and you are missing Cap takes Mizzou and Cotton takes LSU... IMO thats the most likely.

I hope this is true. A great venue, in a great city against a quality opponent. Rematch of the Two Tigers from Death Valley.

if Mizzou loses to Auburn they will could fall below USCe meaning that USCe is a more attractive pick for the Cap one bowl not MIzzou.

1) USCe travels better
2) USCe could be ranked higher or at worst ranked 1 behind Mizzou.

If Mizzou isn't taken by the Cap one they either go to the Outback or Cotton

my prediction was slightly wrong but it doesn't change our outlook.

If Mizzou loses the outback can still take them.

it is most likely that LSU goes to either the Outback or Cotton. I would be shocked if either the Cotton or Outback passes us for aTm or UGA.

In this scenario they can't slip past the Cotton(couldn't go to Outback).

ETA: Actually I'm confused by this now after re-reading it.

This year, the Cotton Bowl is contractually obligated to fill that role. That means it would be required to take the Auburn-Missouri loser if that team is passed over by the BCS bowls, the Cap One and, in Missouri’s case, the Outback.

No, A&M.
