Representatives from the Sugar, Alamo, Holiday and Fiesta/Insight bowls were in attendance. “Great college football game,” said the Sugar Bowl rep, approached on the field after the game.

I was surprised there wasn't a rep for the Cotton Bowl there though. :confused: They seem to be the best fit for us if we win out and is the Bowl I'm pushing for the hardest.

Cotton bowl reps have been present for at least one of our games already.

the main rule you guys need to know about bowl reps.  the fact that they are in mhk watching our game means nothing.

Assuming we beat ISU, Alamo is our worst case scenario.

You should also understand that bowl reps aren't always people who make the decisions.  Many (most) times they're just guys who are on the board of donors that meets once a month and gets a red jacket.

This is exactly right, and many times those meetings are by conference calls...

Spoke with Insight/Fiesta rep.  They are dying for us to Insight against OSU/PSU.


I can't imagine many bowls are "dying" to have PSU.

would probably be the biggest TV audience outside of the NC game, but I don't want to hear about Joe Pa for 3 hours while I'm watching my Cats, so no thanks to PSU

Anything other than Insight or NYC and I'm good to go. Don't want to go back to NYC and lose.
