I live only 3 hours from the Gator Bowl??

How about OU-Clemson? I'd be in heaven!

[Desert Sapper]

I didn't know that we had the tie-in to the GB. Good job, Blues1. I'm not sure if we will have that option, though. The Gator might pick us and they might not. If we are the #2 team in the Big XII (behind Tejas, presumably), don't we have to go to the Cotton?

From the Big XII website:



Big 12 Bowl Selection Order



http://graphics.fansonly.com/confs/big12/graphics/spacer.gif







Oct. 26, 2006 Again this season, the Big 12 has eight bowl slots guaranteed. The Conference is partnered with nine bowls. However the arrangement with the Gator Bowl is for it to select a Big 12 team twice over a four-year period. In the two years in which the Gator does not select a Big 12 team, the Sun Bowl will. Following is the selection order:

BCS
Cotton
Holiday
Gator (when it selects a Big 12 team)
Alamo
Sun (when the Gator does not take a Big 12 team)
Insight
Independence
Texas

[Blues1]

I Believe We Can go Anywhere we get a Invite....I don't think there is a "Must do" kinda thing...?? --- I'm sure some one will know - We even could stay home IF we wanted to...

Rock on'

[sooneron]

It seems that the Gator Bowl would be a good deal for recruiting- esp. Brantley and Garcia.

[TheHumanAlphabet]

My Guess...

BCS Texas
Cotton Nebbish or OU or TAMU
Holiday TAMU or OU or Nebbish
Gator (when it selects a Big 12 team) NEbbish or OU or TAMU
Alamo Mizzou
Sun (when the Gator does not take a Big 12 team)
Insight KU or Sandaggies
Independence Sandaggies or KU
Texas LosuR

Big 12 North will find it tough to represent...

[Fraggle145]

I have no desire to go back to the holiday (save for revenge on USC), the Cotton is getting old, either way I think it helps recruiting either in TX or in ACC country...

[Tuloma]

OU cannot play a BigEast school. One team has to be the ACC, they are tied to the Gator Bowl.

Cotton Bowl has first choice after the BCS and OU would have to arrange to get passed over by the Cotton Bowl, to go to the Gator Bowl.

Big12 bowl tieups are terrible. Thanks to Kevin Wieberg and Donnie Duncan.

[bixby28]

A big Cotton Bowl victory COULD give the program a recruiting edge. Personally, that bowl will suffice, but i'd like to see OUr team get another shot at Oregon this year.

[OUHOMER]

i would love to see the team go some where they can have some fun. Cotton does have a recuriting edge. it all about the money and nothin else

[RUSH LIMBAUGH is my clone!]

Wherever we go, I want to play the domers.

[StoopTroup]

Yummy.

[ruf/nekdad]

domers or ducks, either would be fun to chew up and spit out.

[bluedogok]

If Nebraska was the north rep in the Big 12 game, I would imagine the Cotton Bowl might like them as the Huskers travel well and haven't played there since 1980 (Houston).

[Tuloma]

I don't think OU would chew up and spit out Notre Dame. I would rather play them when OU has the better chance of winning.

I don't want to see OU go 1-7 or whatever aganist them.

[85sooners]

ou/usc holiday bowl :pop:

As an OU alumn and a ND fan (catholic high school will do that) I can honestly say that ND would/should be a dog on that game by about 3. With the Irish o-line and the lack of D, I don't think it would be smart to bet on ND. It would be a good game, but I really think OU would win that game by 10 to 14 points if they played today. The secondary is looking great and we've finally got some pass rush to speak of. ND tends to play to the level of the competition, so they're hard to judge. All that being said, I still say that OU wins that matchup. Lendy Holmes and Re-gggie take care of Samardzija and I'd say that OU could keep the three man rush with no prob. ND has no real run game to talk about. It's crap-tacular and, at times, the pass blocking isn't much better.

I am not emotionally ready to play suc, yet, because I'm thinking they might play us better than they played anyone all year.

Happy Halloween

Arkansas versus Oklahoma

Ark/Okla

[Desert Sapper]

I had trouble staying awake the last time we played Arkie. I hope we play somebody more interesting (and have a better offensive showing than the last time we played the piglets).

[KingDavid]

USC in the Holiday.
LSU in the Cotton.
Clemson in the Gator Bowl.

I don't see how/where we could play Notre Dame in a Bowl Game? Where could that happen given the bowl tie-ins of these three? We're not going to a BCS bowl this year unless Texass craters.
