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

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

Bring on MeatChicken!

I will be there for that one.

 

[UTK]

UT could absolutely beat Michigan lol

 

[05_never_again]

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.

Outside of Ohio State the Big 10 is a joke

 

[Lane Train 4]

I think we would out coach Michigan and win.

 

[WoodsmanVol]

I'm of the opinion, of the opinion am I that a young man named Aubrey would like a Michigan match up.
I would too just to see us extend our ownership of BiG10 teams.

[RockyTop140]

I would absolutely love to see this matchup. Just have to focus on Missouri for now, that will be a very tough game

Outside of LSU the SEC is a joke

Alabama and Auburn both gave LSU a handful, not to mention Florida gave them a good fight until late also. I wouldn’t call the SEC a joke

Outside of Clemson the ACC is a joke

That is the only true "...is a joke" statement in this thread so far.

 

[GTBATV]

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.

there is a blinking red light on my phone...sniff sniff....

 

[Boston Vol]

On the face of it this doesn’t make a lot of sense unless they believe that Michigan will lose their remaining games, but the bowl ties for the B10 are structured weird. A team can only go to a certain bowl every so often, so this may happen. Although Michigan, unless they win the conference, will most likely end up in the Holiday bowl. Indiana or Illinois would be the most likely opponents, maybe Wisky or even Minnesota if they fall on their face the last few weeks.

 

[Dudleys87]

If you got Michigan to play to their potential every week I’d worry but I’ll take my chances that they’ll come out and try and coast.

Beat the Tigers!

I am FAR from being an "SEC homer"...but...

Outside of LSU the SEC is a joke

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

 

[orangemadam]

If UT continues to improve over the next month the way it has over the past month, Michigan would get beat by UT 4-8 points.

 

[allvol123]

Outside of LSU the SEC is a joke

They beat Auburn by 3 and Bama by 5. Not exactly blowing the rest of the league out.

 

[VeeOhElEsYes]

If we make it to Gator Bowl TN fans will pack that place.
