    Re: Which Bowl might we be headed to?

    Are those the only two realistic possibilities? What conferences would we be playing in those bowls most likely?

    Assuming the Buffs go to one (which isn't a 100% done deal, but damn close to it), the predictions have generally been the Insight. Independence gets mentioned once in a while. Texas Bowl would probably be the crappy fallback position.

    If the purple pussies lose to Fresno, or if the Big XII gets two teams in the BCS, the Buffs would clinch a bowl bid, since the Big XII couldn't fill all their bowl slots without us. Otherwise, we have to hope a bowl would pick us over KjSU, Okie Light or aTm (root for the wHorns to come back!).

    You gotta believe they take us over okie light, unless they take down ou tomorrow. But you never know, but any rational bowl committee should take us based on our sos

    Unfortunately, the only sos any bowl committee cares about is Sales Of Seats. Okie Light is very likely to have an edge on us in that department. Especially with so many of the lower tier bowl tie ins being in the Texas/Louisiana area.

    I really think the conference has a great shot at two BCS berths, which makes the whole thing academic. If not, I'm betting we would get picked over KjSU...

    any rational bowl "committee" will take a team based upon how many people will travel to the game balanced with who quailifies.

    two teams with the same record. the bowl "committee" will choose the team that they believe will bring the largest contingent of fans to that game.

    okie light in a texas bowl will probably bring more people than CU will. thus, CU will lose out on that chance.

    just my guess. i could be wrong.

    i dont think a bowl is a sure thing for the buffs. hope i am wrong....

    Rational bowl committees pick teams based on how well they travel which directly translates to how much money they make.

    Thanks for playing.
