SEC may run the table

 

[IUGradVol]

Birmingham Bowl will be a short game as much as both those teams run the ball.

 

[IUGradVol]

Also…Duke should win the Gator Bowl. Most of Ole Miss’ team will probably opt out imo.

Darn nice match up...all 10 of Vanderbilt's fans will probably go

NFL draft opt-outs and portal not going to be pretty for Ole Miss

 

[stolitonic]

Birmingham Bowl will be a short game as much as both those teams run the ball.

Honestly, that game may be the best out of the bunch.

I really like what Key has done at GT and Vandy is a good story

Will definitely be a good game.

No they won’t be.

TransPerfect? Sounds like a drag!

That will be an interesting game.

Surely Gasparilla is a made-up name. They had to make up a bowl game for Florida to go to. Their fans started off really mad then started buying up tickets. Enjoy that ish, losers. I hear your opponent's starting QB just transferred out so get ready to print some T-shirts.

Can't wait for the "Snoop Dogg Arizona Bowl presented by Gin & Juice by Dre and Snoop"

All names are made up.

The name Gasparilla was born from Jose Gaspar, a pirate who terrorized the coastal waters of West Florida during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Fond of calling himself "Gasparilla," Gaspar and his band of pirates lived a life of seizing and robbing merchant ships off the Gulf Coast until 1821.

They're a translation service company

If only Mike Leach could’ve gotten Miss State to the Gaspirilla Bowl.

Made me smile

I didn't know Outback's headquarters were in Tampa. I thought, "Wouldn't the American Outback be Tucson?"

 

[ENGRVOL]

Glad to see that Dorkawitz can stand on business in the music city bowl.

 

[TrueOrange]

I disagree. The more you think about it though, the idea of a restaurant franchise like that is definitely more of a Florida idea.

 

[rjd970]

Gator Bowl and Las Vegas bowl have the potential to be ugly blowouts. Birmingham bowl has the chance to be sneaky good.

Directly across the street an IHOP

My first thought wasn't the restaurant, but what part of the USA approximates the Australian Outback? Of all the bowl sites, I thought Tucson.
EDIT: The Sun Bowl and the Fiesta Bowl predate Outback by a long shot.
