If the SEC does indeed proceed with expansion and let's just say they bring in A&M and Mizzou for now, or even goes East and gets another couple of teams, we are going to havea bowl tie-in conundrum. What I mean is that I don't see us expanding and still just having 9-10 bowl eligible teams. Therefore, the fight for a bowl slot in a good spot will be even tougher. With that thought in mind, obviously if the Big 12 goes away, there could be a few of their tie-ins up for grabs. What would be everyone's ideas or solutions to adding a couple or 3 new bowls to the SEC?

We already have practically all Florida bowls. There are no desireable cities in the Southeast that I am thinking of that doesn't have a bowl now. Maybe we could snag the Alamo or Sunbowl from Texas. A bowl in the dome in St. Louis if Mizzou joined may be logical. There is a bowl in Houston and there is always Shreveport!! </p>

I can guarantee you a lot of good bowls would be lining up to take an SEC tie-in. I think the Alamo would be almost a given. Probably the Sun as well. But I'm sure the SEC would have other options too.

Heck there are a lot of Bowls with a hard on for the SEC. Finding a bowl game will not be a problem.

if we take a&m + mizzou, the big 12 is dunzo cause the oklahoma schools and tx tech are on the first flight to the pac 12 HQ. that right there opens up bowls spots. also, the big 10 won't sit on 12 teams if they see the sec and pac 12 going to 16, so they'll probably raid the big east and/or acc, which would likely lead to a combining of the leftover acc/big east/maybe the kansas schools to form a 4th 16 team super conference.

in other words, there will be plenty of free agent bowls after the a&m domino falls, cause it's gonna be a mad rush to lock in 16 teams.
