Bowl Situation Thread

[hurdleisu24]

I don't get how this all works. If we don't want to go to NY and Mizzou doesn't want to go to NY and the Pinstripe Bowl doesn't want us in NY, how do we end up in NY? Who makes the decision where we go?

The bowls have an order they get to pick. They can take any team that is avaliable to play in the bowl. If a bowl picks you all you can do is accept the invite or decline and not go to a bowl

Texas...

I know. I heard that they have a 120 yd. field including the end zones. That has to be to our advantage.

I see what you did there...

Not sure I'm ready to believe that: aTm going to Meineke Bowl, and they would compete with us for the Holiday. Since they aren't going there, that leaves who going to San Diego? Mizzou? Don't buy it.

Texas is a done deal to San Diego.

so ksu to cotton? If so then its final... If not we still have hope of avoiding NYC...

 

[Three4Cy]

Crap stick...

The whole rationale of this article is KSU is going to a BCS bowl. If KSU doesn't make the BCS, everything changes.

As others have said, too many people taking a tweet from some would be reporter and making it fact.

But, again, how does Mizzou stay out of NY? If Texas goes Holiday bowl where does that put Mizzou?

tcu to sugar bowl, kstate to cotton bowl

I have done absolutely nothing productive this weekend. We need an announcement ASAP, or my grades are going suffer. I suppose another couple hours wasted waiting won't hurt too bad...

My thoughts exactly.

 

[hawkeyescott]

Maybe you have a kansas State vs Iowa Insight bowl.

Sounds like an Oklahoma vs. Iowa Insight Bowl now.

The family and I will be there in NY.....a lot better > craphole Boise.

Still cant stand the blue field either.

Fiesta - OSU
Cotton- KSU
Alamo- Baylor
Insight- OU
Holiday- TX
Mieneke- ATM
Pinstripe- ISU

At Large- Mizzou

 

[Hawkeye11en1]

No, Iowa is. Any game Iowa plays in is boring.
Why do I think that? Because I don't like Iowa so I think their games are boring and lame.

....at least I'm honest, right? :smile:

lol thats all I wanted to hear. Thank you!

Texas is a done deal to San Diego.

It is? Well crap. Sorry I missed that.

 

[azepp]

So right now it looks like this, as far as I can tell:

OSU - BCS
KSU - Cotton
Alamo - Baylor
Insight - OU
Holiday - Texas
Meineke - A&M
Pinstripe - ISU

Mizzou left out as an at-large. Does this seem right from everything we're hearing?

 

[Lewdawg123]

Wow...Texas to Holiday all but confirms that KSU didn't get a BCS bid. Crazy. Unless Insight picked Missou over Texas, A&M, and ISU. That would even be more crazy.

 

[ajk4st8]

I love the spirit of my fellow Cyclones wishing for a miracle.. when all signs are pointed to NYC!

Please be wrong!

 

[Dopey]

Even if the team had heard...Mahoney would likely have "missed it"....



Too soon?

AWWW ****!!

TCU to Poinsettia Bowl, so no BCS for them. Does that mean Boise got a BCS bid? or a big 12 team?

Boise in Sugar then, not TCU. RT @Schrotenboer: TCU not in BCS, instead headed to Poinsettia Bowl vs. Louisiana Tech
