Bowl Game

[mudhen]

USA Today projected the Vols to face Georgia Tech in the Gator Bowl. That's a good bowl for travelling fans.

Back to back games against Ga Tech. Maybe with the portal, we will be able to avenge the bowl loss next season.

Back to back to back if it happens

Another blowout loss. Smdh

Probably correct, Georgia Tech got blown out last year by an SEC team so you think it will happen again.

Just tackle the QB every play…

We couldn't do it with Pavia, I'm skeptical that we can do it much better vs King. He'd likely torch our defense as well.

No, we need a slow, plodding offense with an somewhat immobile, preferably lame, QB to face in a bowl game.

I'd put some money that we won't play them since we open with them next season.

If the Gator choose Ga Tech, we will lobby for Tampa or Charlotte

I’d love to see the matchup, but you’re probably right

Ugghh, these potential bowl match ups are uninspiring to say the least. Iowa is the most boring team ever. It's like playing Kentucky.

Can we not play someone like SMU, Houston, AZ, AZ St, or Louisville?

I am in the minority but the bowl game, aside from another game to watch my team before the long dry spell, is meaningless. It's an exhibition. I don't care if they win or lose. It matters for the coaches and some players, though.

Don't know why, but 9 wins just looks way better than 8....somehow.

Yes you are. Win. Win every game.

One look at me and you'll see i place little value on looks.

 

[GAVol]

I always want to see the next game. I’m just a glutton for punishment I guess.

 

[NO SIR EEE]

Just remember everyone, do NOT jump the gun and buy tickets in advance. Remember a few years ago. That being said, I do have a discount ticket link for Jacksonville if they end up going there. I'll post if we get it.

It's the extra practices that matter the most, especially for the early enrollees

If we play in Jacksonville could play Virginia, Miami, Louisville, Pitt, SMU
If we play in Charlotte could play those teams along with Duke or Wake Forest or Clemson
If we play in Tampa, we could play Iowa, USC, Washington, Illinois
If we play in Nashville, we could play N'Western, Minnesota, Illinois or Penn State

Would be nice to somehow luck into the Reliaquest Bowl. Beating up on a mid level Big 10 school would be nice and, even though kickoff is at noon, that timeslot on a semi-holiday just seems better than going up against multiple NFL games from an exposure standpoint.

I'm tired of playing Big 10 teams in bowl games. I want something different.

The Big Ten is fun to beat up on though, and Tennessee owns them

 

[Carp]

I really wanted to play Michigan, but it seems like Texas will play either them or USC. A rematch of the 2005 national championship between Texas and USC would be cool to watch.

Like Iowa...

Miami seems doubtful, even though it's a Jacksonville game.

Among those teams, Louisville, USC, and SMU are the most interesting, imo.

I feel sorry for whatever big bowl has to take Vandy. Their few dozen fans do not travel at all.

 

[zeppelin128]

USC would be cool. Or Illinois.

No Iowa, please.
