    Re: 2018-19 Bowl Games

    Saturday, December 21, is probably the latest that the game could be played in the Cotton Bowl as they usually take 7-10 days to get the rink built and ice installed for outdoor games. That would be...

    Re: 2018-19 Bowl Games

    Conference USA wins the Bowl Challenge Cup as the only conference that wins more than 60% of its bowl games.

    They don't ask how. They ask how many.

    Texas is the team looking good tonight. Tech is going to be getting more than a few points when the line for August 31 is set.

    C-USA 13 minutes away from the Bowl Challenge Cup if this result...

    G5 teams finish 13-16 in bowls. C-USA, MWC, and SBC combined go 10-6. AAC and MAC combined go just 3-10.

    ESPN talking about Conference USA at the top of the Bowl Challenge Cup standings can't be a bad thing.

    Northwestern beats Utah 31-20 to eliminate the Pac 12.

    Texas A&M will beat North Carolina State, so the SEC and Big Ten remain alive.

    Big Ten must win its three remaining games (Iowa vs...

    ESPN has clarified the rules for the Bowl Challenge Cup by saying that the SEC has 6 games remaining as of now, so the Santa Clara game next Monday counts (it isn't a bowl game, so it shouldn't).

    Re: 2018-19 Bowl Games

    Instead of 8 conference games for C-USA, there would be only 6 division games plus the one cross-division game in Week 12. FCS games would not necessarily be eliminated, but it would make sense to...

    Or take all G5 conference champions ranked above a certain point (minimum 2 guaranteed regardless of ranking). Then the other 1-4 spots are at-large.

    And I would have no problem with the 8 first...

    ESPN has done the Bowl Challenge Cup for years now. C-USA trying to win it for the 4th time in the last nine years.

    Unfortunately ESPN doesn't pay anything to the winner.

    4 or 5 Olivers wouldn't have been enough to turn this game around. Houston was never going to be able to score enough to win this one.

    Would normally be pulling against the P5 team, but not when they playing a team from the delusional P6 conference. Knew the kicker was going to push one right trying not to pull left.
