YesIs the bowl in Phoenix still played on a baseball field?
That’s weird. Did Phoenix say Nah, we will take our chances with an at-large team?
Tru dat. And can help again this year, with PJ remaining undefeated in Gopher bowls (as one of the Gopher stadium timeout videos can proudly proclaim).Be careful what you ask for. Getting slotted to a lower bowl may have helped with those bowl victories.
Ahhhh. They prepared for us in advance.Per Andy Greder of the PP
Looks like I called it. Buddy in Phoenix had texted me guarantee rate bowl would not take Gophers due to them being 5-7. He was right.Learn the game
Good call. Gophers avoid a baseball field!Looks like I called it. Buddy in Phoenix had texted me guarantee rate bowl would not take Gophers due to them being 5-7. He was right.
For this year yes, but we have been 8-4 twice, with head to head wins against teams that have jumped the Gophers in bowl selection. So we do have a gripe from past years. This year, not much you can say.the Gophers are literally the last team to qualify for a bowl game.
the Gophers are the only 5-7 team playing in a bowl game.
there is no reason to expect that the Gophers would be slotted above any other B1G team. Frankly, the Gophers are lucky to be in a bowl game. they have no reason to complain about which bowl they are assigned to.
want to be in a better bowl game - then win more games.
The G-rated bowl is a worse stadium with a lower payout.Looks like I called it. Buddy in Phoenix had texted me guarantee rate bowl would not take Gophers due to them being 5-7. He was right.
Yep, it is.The G-rated bowl is a worse stadium with a lower payout.
You would’ve been a lot cooler if you wouldn’t have backed off your statement last minuteLooks like I called it. Buddy in Phoenix had texted me guarantee rate bowl would not take Gophers due to them being 5-7. He was right.
Agree with this but the idea of being “slotted above someone” doesn’t really exist.the Gophers are literally the last team to qualify for a bowl game.

Didn't know my buddy knew the 5-7 qualification versus 6-6 rule for that Guaranteed rate bowl and conference stipulation with Mountain West. I didn't know that was a thing, or the rule he did. That is why he was saying Quick lane bowl. I got to crash at his place when we were in Phoenix. Oh well, I can't go this year either way, so neither game, would I benefit being there.You would’ve been a lot cooler if you wouldn’t have backed off your statement last minute
Great call as usual from the King Of Bad Takes.Yup. You heard it here first.
Ohio state will not be in the orange. The big ten can’t fill all the bowls.
Likely Mn ends up in Vegas, phoenix, or NYC
In that order
