Can we some clarity over this bowl payout thing. How can all of these bowls be equal if there are millions of $ in payout difference? Or, is that money divided up by the SEC

I can tell you for a fact attending the MCB isn't one of those things that people come to Nashville to do.. Lol I've been to several MCBs and it's depressing and cold and not attended. I get that this won't be the case with UT there but your argument really doesn't apply.

There was no arguments really. The first point is just a fact.....bowl picked UT not the reverse.

I went to the ut vs North Carolina bowl and it was sold out but your point about UT attendance was valid.

Jenius. First off all you have been saying is we were going to the toilet bowl. This the way it had to be. KENTUCKY PLAYS LOUISVILLE EVERY YEAR IN THE REGULAR SEASON, THE CONFERENCE WAS NOT GOING TO PUT US AGAINST INDIANA AND UK VS. UL II. What was going to happen? Maybe Tennessee should have been put in the Rose Bowl.

LOL. OK.

People attending the game don't mean nothing. The only thing that matters is eyeballs on TV screens and exposure for the football program. And "attendance" numbers only count tickets sold not actual attendance. Like I said I've been to 3 or 4 MCB games and the stadium is about 30% or 40% full

So now it's more important that people watch a game that takes place in Florida on tv than watching a game that takes place in Nashville on tv?

Did you go in 2010 or 2016? I was at both, and the stadium was way more than 30-40% full.

(BTW, those games rank #1 and #3 for the MCB ever).

So we’re suppose to be ok with being defaulted to for profits? We would travel well anywhere

Who's being defaulted? More fans will be at the MCB than will travel to Jacksonville and the school makes more money....what's the downside??

Imagine if Tennessee fans didn't boycott the MCB....

It’s also worth noting that two of the three most-attended Music City Bowl games since the bowl game’s inception in 1998 have involved the Vols. The 2010 game between UT and UNC is the most-attended game in Music City Bowl history (69,143) and the 2016 match-up between the Vols and Cornhuskers ranks third (68,496).

Well crap, so we better start getting to 9-3 every year or we're destined to the mcb.

Even though I was mad at Butch for losing to Vandy... I wanted to show love for Dobbs, JRM, Barnett, Kamara, Sutton, and the rest of the guys in that class. Broadway was a sea of orange, had a good time w Nebraska fans, the stadium was packed.

I was at 2010 as well. It was so full that we were easily able to fill the field with trash when the refs screwed us.

I also went to the 2015 opener v BGSU there. We packed it then too.

Some of these people don't know what they're talking about
