Liberty gets the Fiesta Bowl against Oregon.
Huskies get the Naty and Ducks get Liberty. Wonderful! Poor Fiesta Bowl committee! It could have been Oregon vs Alabama.
Wonât be playing Boise State

If Iâm honest Iâm kinda glad we didnât get the NY6⌠watching us get destroyed by Oregon on national television would not be fun
Wow. 12 of the last 14 years theyâve had a MAC team!
Well, there goes Boise State.
There have been pretty clear reports that Barstool wants us, but they have the second pick of MAC teams with ESPN first. ESPN may choose Toledo if they think theyâll draw more eyeballs with their sexier style of play with the side benefit of a larger fan base for the sake of attendance, but imo ESPN will try placing us with another G5 champ instead since a champion-champion matchup is probably the best possible ratings they can get from a MAC team.
Wonât be the Toastery!

Nah, the Ducks should be glad we didnât get the NY6 bid. Oregon wouldnât enjoy getting their butts kicked by a G5 team.
And I can say it because it technically canât be disproven.
Aveon Smith would run all over their defense fs
So thatâs two bowls that normally take MAC teams without a MAC team this year.
Here come the MAC Bowls

Which imo increases the probability of us being in an atypical MAC bowl (like us getting St. Pete in 2016) for the sake of ESPN pairings.
James Madison playing Air Force.
Come on Fenway Bowl!
Tulane off the board

Come on Brett, thatâs only half of a matchup. Youâre better than that.
SMU off the board

Yep.
