The first two would be good due to the competition. And playing Wake would give UConn a chance to avenge last season’s loss and the loss in the Meineke Bowl in Charlotte. I attended the later and enjoyed the first half until Wake came back to win.
Or Myrtle Beach, for that matter.
WE can be the team that ultimately gets Mike Norvell fired!
We get the Big Y brand fruit pastry bowl instead
That was not the vacation spot Myrtle Beach---that would be the coast during the summer. It truly is a fun place.
I agree...Myrtle in summer is very different from Myrtle in the winter. We had an Airbnb on the beach for the bowl game. The day after the game, we had to kill time until an evening flight and walked the boardwalk...completely dead and vacant until we found a hideaway dive bar with pool tables and drank the locals under the table...and beat them at pool, to boot. Would have been more fun if we had won the game in that dreary weather.
That’s not going to happen with the Pinstripe Bowl.
And you know this how?
I don’t think we will go either but not because of the big name brands being more preferred. Miami of OHIO went last Year. They’re gonna want us to be more on the East Coast because of a possible draw and travel. Pinstripebowl or a Fenway bowl would be great.
Iowa State beat University of Miami in the 2024 Pop Tart Bowl…
Miami of Florida*
Stop introducing facts
ughhh these are the exact kinda bowls i'm hoping we won't get.
Bowls want dynamic offenses over stingy defense. Scoring sells tickets
Obviously I’d think if we get 9 wins we’ll see a bigger bowl. Pinstripe, Fenway, Gasparilla, etc. 6-8 we’ll see Boca, Birmingham, or Myrtle.
I think biggest considerations are
