Rocky in the radio interview said that it's likely we will play one of 5 schools. Central Florida , Memphis, UCLA, Washington State or North Texas. Guessing it's UCLA in Arizona Bowl, WAZZU in Foster Farms Bowl, UCF/Memphis loser in Hawaii or other bowl and N. Texas in New Mexico Bowl. All are great... of course except for North Texas. Even Rocky said North Texas would suck. Lol.

Foster Farms vs WSU Arizona vs UCLA Hawai’i vs Memphis/UCF loser Frisco vs North Texas I would be fine with any of the first three games, not so excited about UNT and a trip to Frisco, although there is a really good Brazilian Steakhouse in Frisco, oh and we could all get a good look at the Home for FC Dallas, Toyota Stadium, and see just what SuckerCity would look like. |

The NCAA limits the total number of bowl practices that each team is allowed. Correct, it doesn't matter if you play in the New Mexico Bowl or the Rose Bowl you only get 15 days of practice. Playing in a later bowl does not really help. Your team just gets to sit around more, unless you want to watch more film. This is incorrect. We can have as many practices as we want prior to the bowl so long as we don't exceed 20 hours a week. |

Hell if you don't believe me just do a simple google search and you will find your answer. |

No so ugly anymore.
What did I tell you guys?
"* A slight change in the Mountain West. While the Boise State-Fresno State winner in the MWC title game still goes to the Las Vegas Bowl, the loser will go to the Hawaii Bowl. The Foster Farms Bowl now looks like it will have San Diego State, filling in the spot the Big Ten can’t fill."
From McMurphy.

Something tells me that Boise will win today and end up in the highest paying bowl which will probably not be in Vegas. That being said don't be surprised to find
out that we end up in Vegas. Vegas will chose between Fresno with 4 losses or us with 2 making us the choice.

I am assuming that our dear alma mater will have a package ready by Monday morning? GO AZTECS!!!! |
