3 new bowl games in 2020 if NCAA approves Competition Committee’s recommendations, sources said. That will make 43 bowls (including title game): 84 teams or 65% of all FBS teams will go bowling. Chicago (B1G vs. ACC) & Myrtle Beach will be 2 of new bowls https://www.facebook.com/TheBrettMcMurphy/ …
From the Article
Quote:
The number of proposed bowls allowed per conference beginning in 2020, the start of the new bowl cycle, will be as follows (the Power 5 tie-ins do not include one New Year’s 6 bid for each league):
League Maximum bowl tie-ins
ACC 10 (not including ACC’s Orange Bowl bid)
SEC 10 (not including SEC’s Sugar Bowl bid)
Big Ten 8 (not including Big Ten’s Rose Bowl bid)
Pac-12 7 (not including Pac-12’s Rose Bowl bid)
Big 12 6 (not including Big 12’s Sugar Bowl bid)
American 7
Conference USA 7
Mid-American 6
Mountain West 6
Sun Belt 5
Army & BYU each can secure its own automatic bowl tie-in, but the remaining independents (New Mexico State, UMass and Liberty) must hope for an at-large spot from a conference that can’t fill all of its allotments in a specific year. Notre Dame remains part of the ACC’s bowl lineup.
Quote:
Myrtle Beach and ESPN officials have had ongoing discussions about starting this bowl game, sources said. The most likely conferences affiliated with Myrtle Beach could be Conference USA, the Sun Belt or the Mid-American. If the Sun Belt is involved, look for the league to cut ties in 2020 with either Arizona, Dollar General, Camellia or Cure, all part of the Sun Belt’s current bowl lineup.
The Sun Belt will not cut ties with any bowl game. Why would they? Why would any conference?Quote:

If you will recall, last year UTSA did not get to go to a bowl game. In the clip edit, Hitler is a key UTSA alum/donor who expresses his thoughts on UTSA to his peer fans. Take a look...

I face a lot of UTSA T-shirts every day here in SA. Now I will have to hold back the snickers along with the usual "you guys are $#!+" comments I really want to say.
That makes sense. Is CUSA limited to 7 guaranteed bowl games?Quote:

Note a young Lucille Ball.
I'm moving back to San Antonio soon, and just in my last couple visits, I've seen a good deal more UTSA merch on folks. I'm used to about 80% Iowa and 20% Iowa State up here...Quote:

They don't understand how easy they have it in supporting their school compared to places like TECH. They have a captive large population without a devious underlying culture that destroys even a peep against the chosen ones.Quote:
