Gator Bowl
Where: Jacksonville, Fla.
Projected matchup: Michigan vs. Tennessee
Quick bite: Let's say the Vols beat Mizzou and Vanderbilt to end the regular season 7-5 with five consecutive wins entering bowl season. Tennessee would be an attractive option for Jacksonville. Considering the Vols would have the same record as Texas A&M, who played in this game last season, we've been told the Gator Bowl committee would favor Orange. That could send the Aggies to the Texas Bowl (or elsewhere).

Has UF going to Citrus

Michigan would be beatable if they finish the season poorly and don't give a s**t about that bowl game. If they get blown out by Ohio St in the finale, I can't imagine their mental makeup and motivation coming into a bowl game would be great. We'd be a huge underdog against them though regardless.

Bingo

Tells you everything you need to know about Schlabach. Iowa isn’t available for the Gator Bowl because of the aforementioned tie-in structure that the big ten uses.

In evenly matched games with the Big 10 the only game that would be a test would be LSU vs. OSU, the rest the SEC would win running away

Then why so many SEC teams not going bowling while so many Big 10 are?

The SEC is going to be short of winning teams along with Missouri not being able to go bowling because of the NCAA

Penn State or Alabama
Florida or Michigan

Minnesota or UGA
Tennessee or Indiana
A&M or Illinois
Iowa or Kentucky

Notre Dame... Michigan. I would love it.

Beating down Michigan would give us a nice hype train going into the last signing day and 2020.

I think only the old heads will get that reference.

There will probably be three bowls that have to invite Non SEC teams

We would not beat Michigan.

 

[Ten_Titans]

We would not beat Michigan.

Yeah, my bad. I meant to say "Anyone who isn't a scared little girl" would love it.

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

Outside of LSU the SEC is a joke

Outside your mom's basement, you are a joke...

 

[508mikey]

Most have us projected for the gator bowl, but with several different options with who we might be playing. I would be ok with the Michigan option.

I just dont think Michigan drops that far down but with Minnesota emerging its possible

Wrong

Auburn or Wisconsin - Auburn
Minnesota or UGA - UGA ( has more depth and speed)
Tennessee or Indiana- TN
A&M or Illinois - A&M
Iowa or Kentucky

- Iowa’

 

[VolforFootball]

Playing Michigan would be tough, but would certainly provide an excellent opportunity both for our players and for recruiting were we to win. I say bring it on.

 

[VolforFootball]

is Ole Miss still banned ?

No, but they're 4-6 and unlikely to reach a bowl seeing as they play LSU this week.

 

[Sara Clark]

Going to Fl in the winter is nice, but I have to admit, if we were Nashville bound, it wouldn't bother me for a minute. Nashville is a fun town to visit.

 

[Tennesseefan2019]

is Ole Miss still banned ?

Ole Miss can go bowling but I don't think they become bowl eligible because they're 4-6 and they have to play LSU and Mississippi State.

Charlotte isn't too bad either

Ole Piss is a fire this year. I predict that that lug Luke will be gone before too long.

they could ruin it for State then, MSU has Alabama , some cream puff and Ole Miss left

 

[GetEmVols]

That would not be a good matchup for us. I would think Indiana would be more our level

I’d much rather play Michigan than Indiana.
