I want Texas in the Gator Bowl

[CHorn427]

vs ND or Miami

Is this a possibility?

Screw the Citrus vs Michigan

[Alex Butler]

Doubtful, these bowls have contracts with conferences so they know the no. X team from SEC plays the no. X team from big 10 etc. The bowls very seldom get to select the teams especially big schools. 

[John F.]

Possible but doubtful. The Gator Bowl is affiliated with the SEC, but the Citrus Bowl has the first pick of non playoff SEC teams. Texas is a draw so hard to imagine them passing.

Where is the order?

I hate that we’re gonna play Michigan. Really do. Nothing to gain. Winless vs ranked teams. It will just be a win margin comparison game at best

I’ll take anybody…so far as 95% of our team plays.

The players that would definitely not play- Anthony Hill, Malik Muhammad, maybe Ethan Burke?

I bet Burke plays. The more positive game tape he puts out the better.

According to statistical models, Texas would only be favored by 3 pts vs. Michigan on a neutral field.

Sark really sandbagged the statistical models by spending 10 games stubbornly trying to be a power running play action team with Connor Stroh and Nick Brooks at guard and CJ Baxter at RB 😭

Michigan hasn’t come within 11 pts of any ranked team they’ve played. I’d put my life on Texas -3.

The problem isn’t winning the game. The problem is Texas gets no credit if we win and won’t move up rankings or anything. We would if we played and beat ND or Miami

we missed the playoff, who cares about the end of season rankings? A win over Michigan is a win over Michigan.
