Lower-Tier Power Five Bowls

First Responder Bowl (Dec. 30): Louisiana Tech vs. SMU (link)

I like seeing our name when the Power 5 is discussed, but we deserve a better bowl if we win out. I'd also like for us to play another Power 5 team and beat them like the last time we played in this bowl against Illinois. SMU is good and has been getting a lot of attention, but they won't be another P5 notch under the belt.
