College Football News (CFN) projects us to play Michigan State in the Detroit Bowl. Not sure if MSU will end up with a winning record or not anyway.

Athlon Sports has us in Boca vs. James Madison. That would be a very good (and challenging ) match up. JMU is 6-2 and destroyed BSU earlier this season.

Another Boca tie.

Or a downgrade from the Barstool bros, depending on the comment.

Snoop wouldn’t be openly trashing the players and the game for 3 hours while doing commentary.

I watched the Ohio and Wyoming one a couple years ago and i didnt notice that at all. And they didnt spend any time talking about the nyc games like espn. A little too much on gambling for my taste and a little childish but not ripping on the players. But i didnt see much of Toledo vs wyoming last year so maybe it was worse last year

Brett McMurphy has us projected for the Mobile Bowl vs Old Dominion. This game will be played on December 26, and on ESPN.

Huskies under Jim Mora are a very good team.

I sat on their side and cheered for them two years ago at the Myrtle Beach Bowl. No brainer. They were playing Marshall.

Three say Myrtle this morning…

That would be a pretty good destination for the team and fans, plus a winnable game. Is it a day or night game?

Alright, have family in Charlotte area and have been to MB dozens of times for family vacations. So this sounded good and maybe a nice Christmas treat. Went to bowl site and looks like they’ve sold most of the tickets to who the f ever and cheapest tickets on site are $149/ea. And there’s not many of those left it would seem.
Never been to bowl game but for minor bowl that hasn’t named teams yet this seems bit high and almost sold out status except for tiks reserved for the two teams sounds bit goofy. Am I missing something or what?

Once the participating teams are named, wouldn’t you expect each to get something like 5,000 seats each? Maybe those will be less expensive when sold through the schools.

Most bowl games reserve big blocks which they pass on to the schools to sell. Also, there are generally widely available tickets locally for fairly cheap if you don’t want to go through Miami and support the department.

Hell, at the Bahamas bowl a few years ago, they weren’t even checking tickets at the gate and you could just walk in if you wanted.

I’ve been to the bowl twice. Never paid more than about $35 for a sideline ticket. There will always be seats available thtough university allocations and on Stubhub.

247Sports new projections have us in Frisco Bowl vs. UConn.

They also have us in the same listing playing Georgia southern in the myrtle beach bowl. One listing is Miami University, the other is Miami (Ohio)

That would be a very tough game. I think we could win it but tough. Mora has done a great job there.
