They can't go to the St. Pete Bowl (Big East v. C-USA)
They can go to the Champs Bowl in Orlando
Fla. St. versus Northwestern maybe
They can't go to the Outback Bowl in Tampa (Big Ten v. SEC)
They can't go to the Captiol One Bowl in Orlando (also Big Ten v. SEC)
They can't go to the Gator Bowl in Jacksonvill (Big East v. ACC)
And they can't go to the Orange Bowl
(aren't good enough)
Just listened to the local sports talk radio and the head chairman for the Gator Bowl, if Bowden coaches in the bowl game, they will invite FSU. Done deal.
If not, of course a 6-6 team has no appeal to them. But if it's his last game, that will sell tickets.
He said possibly a matchup with West Virginia unless a bunch of upsets happen his weekend.
They can come to the Gator Bowl. They are in the ACC. But there was some confusing rule they were talking about. Something about a 1 win rule. They explained it but I didn't understand it. So instead of taking some team like Virginia Tech, who has more wins than FSU, they could take FSU based on that rule.
Bottom line, Rick Catlett from the Gator Bowl Assoc, said they would take FSU if he does coach the Bowl game.
It makes sense. Close to Tallahassee and a large FSU fan base here locally.
