Cotton Bowl thread: UT v A&M?

[benefactor]

Fitting finish.

[BRHornet45]

damnit sons why didn't Texas go after Les Miles? if any team other than Michigan would have a shot at getting him, it would be Texas.

[coyotes_geek]

I don't THINK this does enough to put Kline back into the Heisman hunt, but goddammit, Texas. Make it a LITTLE tougher, huh?

I was hoping for that too, but Texas has decided it's time to roll over and play dead.

Which bowl will Texas play in now?

Cotton.

[BRHornet45]

LSU vs Texas???

[coyotes_geek]

LSU vs Texas???

Georgia v. Texas.

LSU to Chick Fil A vs Clemson according to twitter ramblings. Who knows though.

A&M will be doing great to break even financially if they go to the Capital One Bowl.

Financial smack!!

Upcoming Blake posts:

"Sucks to be A&M. Orlando has a crap facility compared to where all the other SEC bowls get played. lol @ A&M."

"lol A&M playing at 11 AM with three other bowls while Texas plays alone in prime time."

"lol A&M Mickey Mouse team"

"lol SEC sending Georgia to beat Texas 62-10 and hiding A&M against crap Michigan team"

"lol A&M thinking it accomplished anything by winning a bowl named after a credit card"

"lol A&M finishing in the top 10. The polls are so skewed for the SEC it's not even funny."

"lol A&M thinking it's anything more than a one-year wonder."

"lol A&M preseason top 5. Doesn't mean anything, they'll finish 6-6."

"I'm not butthurt, this is about aggy and the lhn, really, I mean it."

whoever plays UT gets a free win

Baylor wouldn't be a 5 loss team in the SEC. They would just stack the box to stop the run and be a slightly below average defense in the SEC, then they would tear it up on O.

You should start up a website called "unskewedpolls.com -- college football edition." Put Mitt Romney's campaign staff in charge.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

son its nowhere near as bad as the #6 is next to K-State .... you know the team that was ranked "#1" for a few days and then got stomped the out by an unranked and 5 loss Baylor team 52-24? lol

Son I really hope the Fiesta Bowl ends up being K-State vs. Oregon. All the Big-12 homers on this site have been pimping K-State and competing with each other for who can swallow as much of Bill Snyder's as possible have been insisting K-State is way better than Oregon.

Georgia v. Texas.

Hopefully Alamo Bowl, which is very possible.

The rumors about Northwestern being picked by the Cap1 bowl changes my perspective on everything. Really don't want to play that team again. What a snoozefest. Why did Nebraska have to get blown out last night wow.

Doubtful I say any of those things.

No financial smack. You're acting the expert on the college bowl system. You should know schools generally don't make direct profits from being in a bowl.

lol unfunny idiot.

That would be a great one sons

The Nebraska loss threw a wrench in everything last night, this is what I'm hearing now:

Cap1- Georgia vs Northwestern (Had Nebraska last year, Don't want to match up A&M v NU for 2nd year in a row)
Cotton- LSU vs OU/Texas (Told to pass on possible A&M/Texas matchup from both sides)
Chick Fil A - A&M vs Clemson

Sucks for A&M even though Clemson is a decent opponent. Thankfully the new BCS deal won't limit the amount of teams from one conference. SEC should have gotten a 3rd team. Personally, I think the Game s had a tough schedule with road games against LSU, Florida, Clemson, and Vandy and still won 10 games total.

To be honest, the Pac-12 was a very good conference this season. Stanford and Oregon can play with just about anyone unlike K-State and OU. Easily better than the Big 12 (lol at anyone thinking the Big 12 is as good as the SEC).

Cap1 would have guaranteed an 11 win season but that matchup would have been incredibly boring. Clemson will provide a very tough test for us but it will be on the national spotlight being the only game on that night. Should be a much more exciting game at least.

This year the Pac was the 2nd best conference in the nation, granted tha'ts not saying much since the Big-12 and Big-10 were both in jokes this year.

I'm happy Arizona is getting what should be an easy win bowl game.

It will be a good game to watch, but i don't see Clemson hanging with the Aggies.

I feel bad for Vandy getting stuck in a crap bowl as well. They would be in the Chick Fil-a Bowl if the BCS had a 3rd SEC team.

Alot of quality coaches in the conference. The conference will even get better.

I hope RichRod can improve the defense. His offenses will be fine to get 8-9 wins yearly, but if Zona wants to compete for the Pac-12 le, the defense will be the key.
