After Week 3, ESPN’s Bonagura has predicted a Sun Bowl matchup between Utah and Louisville. I know these predictions don’t mean much, especially so early in the season, but I think this would be a fun game. I would love to see if our D can subdue a Lamar Jackson.
So realistically speaking, who would you like Utah to play in this year’s bowl game?
Of the non-NY6 bowl games, my preference would be the Holiday Bowl vs Ohio State. I’d go to that one in a heartbeat. I’ll also accept Michigan, Wisconsin, or Michigan State. (Penn St went last year, so not likely they get invited 2 in a row)
Oops! My mistake. You are correct. Then Penn St would be added to my list. Take off Wisconsin though as they played in the Holiday bowl 2 years ago and the Big10 agreement with the Holiday bowl is 5 different teams over 6 years (so no Wisconsin, Minnesota, or Nebraska this year).
I thought the same thing when I read the Louisville prediction.
Outside of a Rose Bowl, I agree with the suggestion of the Holiday Bowl vs. Ohio State, Michigan or Michigan State. I have close friends in both Michigan fan bases and it would be fun to get a marquee opponent and possibly arrange a trip to watch the game with my friends.
