Im from Chicago so hoping Bears win tonight and see what NFL schedule is for last week of season afterwards Hoping Illini win too Birmingham Bowl is such a dud but did best they could after getting short end of the stick with Notre Dame declining their bowl game

The Birmingham Bowl is getting one of the greatest rivalries of the G6. It’s a blessing in disguise.

Sorry to criticize you Z-Man you are overreacting & remember this is just another Bowl game in Birmingham & it will be interesting to watch.

You need to have fun Z-Man & please stop taking things seriously.

Not that familiar with Sun Belt but living here in Vegas with new Pac-12 starting next year, was hoping they would have App State switch bowl games with Utah State that way both Monday bowl games would have engaged interest in a Pac-12 vs Sun Belt conference challenge for next season since Pac-12 needs more nonconference games

Revised Pac 12 will have eight teams in Football & there will plenty of nonconference games.

Having a Pac 12 vs Sun Belt bowl game or two would be fantastic.

The Pac-12 can have 8 conference games by doubling up on the following match-ups each year:

Boise State-Utah State
Colorado State-Texas State
Fresno State-San Diego State
Oregon State-Washington State

The second game in each series would be played on Thanksgiving weekend.

Z-Man I Do not want to this to you buddy it’s too early to tell what’s going to happen with new Pac-12 Football conference.

Actually I want to be surprised by new Pac 12 outcome.
