Gator bowl Vs. Notre Dame….. boy I’m sure that would attract a lot of state fans to return to Jacksonville

I dig it. I think we could beat ND

 

[HammerOfTheDogs]

We own them in baseball. Their women's basketball team beat us.

A football game would be the rubber match.

From women's basketball to baseball to football

Own them? We beat them 2 games to 1 in a Super where they actually outscored us over the course of 3 games. It was a great series but we hardly "owned them"

Agreed.

They also eliminated Tennessee in the Super Regional— making every other SEC fanbase happy.

17 that and 17 ND.

May not be going to Gator

If we do play ND, they could call it Catholics vs Cowbells.

We beat them in Starkville around 2000 in the Regionals in baseball as well. Paul Mainieri left for LSU shortly after, if my memory is correct.

That would be good for selling tickets given the rare matchup.

If they can match ND and Oregon in the Holiday Bowl that is what we get.
Not sure if Gator picks before Holiday but we probably end up playing someone like Iowa or UNC unfortunately.
I wish they would go back to At Large picks for all bowls but still have the Rose historical matchups, Orange - ACC, Sugar- SEC.
Playing in the Sun Bowl or Fenway Bowl or even Hawaii would be better than Memphis, Nashville or Jax every few years.
