We used to hope to get to a bowl game. That was an accomplishment in the Pac-12. It’s nice to have higher aspirations and expectations (Pac-12 championship, Rose Bowl etc), but it makes Foster Farms seem meaningless.
This is two bowls higher than where we ended up last year. Good destination in an area we recruit against a Big 10 opponent. Not to mention that it’s after Christmas so we may actually be able to use our full practice allotment.
Where are you seeing that it is a lock? ESPN has us going to the Sun against Pitt. I would rather go to the Foster Farms bowl over the Sun so I am hoping you are correct.
