I've seen where we have one of the toughest schedules in the country. So what's the pack consensus on if/where we go bowling?
Here's the bowls with SEC tie-ins this year:

Las Vegas Bowl (SEC vs. PAC12) - December 17
Gasparilla Bowl (SEC vs. AAC/ACC/PAC12) - December 23
Birmingham Bowl (SEC vs. AAC) - December 27
Liberty Bowl (SEC vs BIG12) - December 28
Texas Bowl (SEC vs BIG12) - December 28
Gator Bowl (SEC vs ACC) - December 30
Music City Bowl (SEC vs Big Ten) - December 31
Sugar Bowl (SEC vs BIG12) - Jan 1
Citrus Bowl (SEC vs Big Ten) - Jan 2
Tampa Bay Bowl (SEC vs Big Ten/ACC) - Jan 2

LAS on 12/17 is very interesting. Granted playing in that bowl probably means we got shellacked three weeks earlier in the EB.. but as I sit here in July it sounds like more fun than Birmingham, Memphis, Houston, Jacksonville or Nashville.

I predict a team outing at TopGolf in Birmingham for MSU Football this December and Leach in Key West on December 28th.

Out of the ones you named I’d probably go to birmingham bc of convenience, Houston, Nashville and Las Vegas.

Most likely out on Memphis and Jacksonville

100% in on sugar, citrus or Tampa bay

Today I would predict either Birmingham or some non bowl tie that needs to fill slots by using the surplus of SEC teams.

I’m going worst case 7-5.
Best 10-2.

Likely 8-4 or 9-3.

But I agree with you.

The wool grows thick, I'm hoping for 7-5, will be tickled pink at 8-4.

Will has to improve biggly in making and not giving up big plays for us to reach 8-4. He'll set records, but we need him to make big plays in crucial situations and not give up sacks in big spots to make 8-4.

7-5 or 6-6 level. We will compete with most of the teams and see a decrease in mental offensive miscues but we have a killer schedule and it will show by the Egg Bowl.

I think the East is going to be underwhelming with the second place team going 5-3 or 4-4. That gives us a great shot at Citrus if we can take care of business.

I’d like to see us in the Vegas Bowl but that’s probably going to take at least 8 wins so probably Bham Bowl or no bowl.

We will be 1 game better than what this board says and/or 1 game worse than what Genes Page - Steve’s Page - The Bone Zone says.

This feels like one of those weird years where Leach pulls something totally out of his *** ………. while managing to lose the Apple Cu….. er, Egg Bowl.

8-4 if depth holds
9-3 if we pull one out of our arse
So whatever that gets you in today's ncaa NIL, Transfer Portal, Super Conference college football vortex
