Bowl Projections: Citrus FSU vs Vols

This weekend just confirmed to me how Bama is by their self.

This Bama team would not slip up like Michigan or Clemson to such garbage teams. They already annihilated USC.

Bama had lost to Ole Miss the last 2 years. They've lost to Auburn not too long ago. They can trip up too.

(but ill go as long as not Tax slayer or Outback, though i had a complete blast there the past two years)

Here is some info on Citrus Bowl and Big 10 from CFN:

The Big Ten gets a team in the Rose Bowl. It’s the Big Ten Champion if it’s not in the College Football Playoff. Also, the Big Ten is eligible for the Orange Bowl three times between 2014 and 2016.

Orange will pick the highest-ranked team from Big Ten, SEC or Notre Dame to play a team from the ACC. If the Orange takes a Big Ten team, the Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl will take an ACC team in place of the Big Ten.

1. Rose Bowl (New Year’s Six)
– Rose Bowl will choose a Big Ten representative if one of the conference’s teams is in the playoff

2. Orange Bowl vs. ACC or Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl vs. SEC
– Agreement for Citrus is for five different teams in six years, so no Minnesota or Michigan.

I thought Citrus was tied to the Big 10 and SEC? How would FSU end up there?

They're projecting that the Orange will take Michigan (if they don't make the playoffs)



1. Rose Bowl (New Year’s Six)
– Rose Bowl will choose a Big Ten representative if one of the conference’s teams is in the playoff

2. Orange Bowl vs. ACC or Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl vs. SEC
– Agreement for Citrus is for five different teams in six years, so no Minnesota or Michigan.

3. Outback Bowl vs. SEC
– Agreement is for five different teams in six years, so no Wisconsin or Northwestern.

4. National Funding Holiday Bowl vs. Pac-12
– Agreement is for five different teams in six years, so no Nebraska or Wisconsin.

5. TaxSlayer Bowl or Music City Bowl vs. SEC
– ACC and Big Ten combine with each getting three appearances in six years. The Big Ten played in TaxSlayer last year and will most likely go to Music City. No Penn State or Iowa in TaxSlayer.

6. New Era Pinstripe Bowl vs. ACC
– Not official, but would prefer to have eight different teams in eight years, so no Penn State or Indiana if possible.

7. Foster Farms Bowl vs. Pac-12
– Agreement is for five different teams in six years, so no Maryland or Nebraska.

8. Quick Lane Bowl vs. ACC

9. Zaxby’s Heart of Dallas Bowl vs. Conference USA
– Agreement for three Zaxby’s Heart of Dallas and three Armed Forces bowls in six years. Illinois played in Dallas two years ago, it’s Big 12 vs. Navy in Armed Forces this year.

U guys really afraid of Wisconsin. lol

I guess LSU thought the same thing. Wisconsin has played excellent football this year. Well coached team, sound fundamentals, 3-star talent that plays very well on game day. Shoulda beat OSU, gave Michigan a great game. And yes they beat LSU.

Personally I'm just tired of seeing UT play Big 10 teams. Big 10 football to me is just mind-numbingly boring. I don't mind the blowouts against Northwestern or Iowa. UT has played in 6 bowl games in the past decade with 4 of those being against Big 10 teams. FSU would be an exciting match up.

Edit: weird typo

UT can beat fsu----they haven't looked that good this year, even in that weak conference.

I believe they have to take an ACC team or Notre Dame.

Ok, yeah. Right, and the only spots Notre Dame is eligible for is if their record is within a game of another ACC team eligible for that spot.


The thought of Notre Dame ever ending up in the Citrus Bowl is kind of weird yet also interesting.
