The OFFICIAL Alamo Bowl Game Thread

[star seed 7]

So where does this bowl fall in terms of prestige in the new landscape?

Best of the bowls no one cares about

The Citrus Bowl is the most prestigious bowl outside of the "playoff six". New Years Day. Orlando, FL. And a ranked opponent from the #big 10.

 

citrus is not a big 12 bowl

Care levels are pretty low now and will be sub zero as soon as conf bb starts.

Alamo Bowl and then the next day is @okie state for the big 12 opener.

So right around zero, then.

i get in theory why no one cares about bowl games, it is an exhibition, but when the game rolls around and when you pick up your yearly bowl game tshirt i don't know how anyone can't get a hyped up for it. If you win you get to throw a trophy in the trophy case, this year if we win we will finish top 10 and with 10 wins. If we win this would probably be the best team we beat based on the eventual final rankings. Idk guys, I am getting pretty excited for it.

  Only Mizzou! 

I can't tell you how many times I hear about those great prestigious Citrus bowl games from the past. 

Also, did you know the NIT is the most prestigious basketball tournament outside of the NCAA tournament?

SkinnyBenny is excited. SkinnyBenny might even go!

Nothing screams prestige like playing in the 5th best bowl game on a given day

[catastrophe]

It's impossible to tell which bowls are the prestigious ones because they all keep changing their effing names.

Be safe coming down, guys.  If you're driving, they're forecasting freezing rain in the DFW area on NYE and into the morning hours of Jan. 1.

Truth.

Just warning the natives so that they don't bounce off your Mercedes/BMW/Ferrari/Bugatti/etc as they slide towards the median/ditch.
