ACC gets Citrus Bowl

By: bluehokie2006 on December 3, 2017, 12:40 PM | 19 comments

With Wisconsin at #6, they are the highest ranked B1G/SEC/ND after the champs that aren't in the CFP.

Looks like Hokies are going to Orlando, which bowl remains to be seen.

Could've been us but ND will most likely get it.

I've seen some murmurs that ND could get a NY6 bowl. They had a pretty good argument too.

Arkansas blew a 24-0 lead in the Belk Bowl.

They were #15 in last rankings, 2 teams above them lost. The decision the committee has to make is, do they choose Notre Dame or Washington for that last spot.

Never Forget #1 Overall Seed UVA 54, #64 UMBC 74

Yeah, that will take them about a minute.

I think you're giving them too much credit.

It's a win win for us. We either get a high profile bowl against a solid SEC team or we get to play a solid Big 12 team. I'd be interested to see a Big 12 offense actually try to move the ball against something other than air.

The Orange and Maroon you see, that's fighting on to victory.

*Fuente v. Campbell furor intensifies*

The SEC is a juicier matchup re asses in seats, but that Iowa State game would be must-see for college football fans

the numbers don’t lie and they spell disaster

What time do we find out which bowl and who our opponent is?

bluehokie2006's picture bluehokie2006 | 8 years 7 months # ^

probably 3 or later, barring leaks. Rest of top 25 doesn't drop until 2.

Bowl Projection Update (these were before Alabama was announced as #4)

Sports Illustrated - Eric Single
Pinstripe Bowl vs. Purdue

SB Nation - Jason Kirk
Camping World vs. Oklahoma State

CBS - Jerry Palm
TaxSlayer vs. Mississippi State

NBC Sports - Bryan Fischer
Cirtrus Bowl vs LSU (this has Alabama in at #4 and ND getting a NY6)

247Sports - Brad Crawford
Taxslayer vs. Mississippi State

College Football News
Belk Bowl vs. Mississippi State (I don't think these guys know what's going on)

ESPN - David Hale
TaxSlayer vs. Mississippi State

ESPN - Matt Bonagura
TaxSlayer vs. Texas A&M

So most of these are before they updated their CFP final rankings so a lot of this is likely to change. But there it is.

Looks very likely we will face Oklahoma St. in the Camping World if true.

Shoot, id much rather beat the brakes off of LSU than lose by 40 to Okie State

Question: is the Camping World, Pinestripe & Taxslayer higher tiered bowls than Bell??
