Very excited for this team the extra practices will really help develop our younger players as there are only 13 seniors and 92 underclassmen. Its the equivalent of an extra spring practice period. Expect this team to contend in the American next year.

Beef 'O' Brady's Bowl St. Petersburg, St. Petersburg, Fla. – vs. Conference USA

I actually didn't mind Birmingham for the bbq haha.

Best bet would be Military in Maryland. Gotta think from a logistic standpoint they'd want a Northeast team in there.

Hoping for Miami Beach, Military, or Hawaii.
Literally no one will go to Hawaii. If getting a crowd there is the goal than hope for any other game. Flights and hotels are virtually impossible to find and at extravagant prices. The years Nevada went they sold less than 100 tickets. They sold 12,000 to the Kraft Bowl in SF. I wanted to go but that desire quickly disappeared when I saw the reality of the cost.

Hawaii is good for two reasons:

1) The only game on prime time Christmas Eve. Millions of eyeballs looking for a game to watch. Whoever plays has a captive national audience.

2) It's a nice trip for the team.

Other than that, it sucks.

Could be 9 eligible AAC teams. Is there room for all?

If you're 6-6 this year, you're almost certainly going to find a bowl somewhere.

There are 80 slots!

Birmingham - it would be good to beat another obnoxious SEC fan base.

From a selfish possibility of attending game I want Birmingham, Orlando or St Pete.

From a program point of view I want something that gives team max practices and time to heal.

Later is better
