Liberty might not make bowl game

They'll be in a bowl.

Mister P

11/30/20 7:42am

They might not. They don’t have history and conferences have bowl affiliations

Mister P

They might not.

Marvelous

11/30/20 9:07am

And 10 or so bowls have already been cancelled

Mister P says they’ll be in a bowl. I pity the fool that’s messes with Mister P

The PAC 12 says teams have to be .500

2FarGone

11/30/20 7:44am

Pac 12 also said no season, no OOC, 21 day waiting period, etc.

Yep. As soon as money has something to say, the Pac will agree to whatever

Wish there were no bowl tie ins and the bowls had a pecking order to choose the

Yep...that is the ultimate correct answer. Agree completely

WY was left out in 1996 — 11-2 record.

And La Tech in 2012

That was their fault.

Kind of makes those conference championship games a little unfair..

It was the bowl committee’s interaction with Wyoming’s charming fans

ECU missed out in '96 at 8-3 w/ wins over #12 Miami, USC(e), UCF, Memphis, NCSU.

B Easy

11/30/20 8:06am

#20 ECU left out in '83 (3 Ls by combined 13 pts to top 10 teams, FLA, MIA, FSU)

That was UCFs first year as an FBS school. And Memphis was horrible.

Far fewer bowls in the 90's.

Gentleman Stan

11/30/20 8:33am

And this is why IMO it makes no sense that Liberty has turned down BYU for 12/19

TempeCoug

11/30/20 7:48am

They don't want to lose by 35 points

2FarGone

11/30/20 7:49am

I guess but they haven’t sighed away from bigger program teams this year so why

TempeCoug

11/30/20 7:58am

It seems both teams have improved from last year - a 35 pt spread seems high

BYU Fan

11/30/20 8:07am

Hopefully Tom is in their ear about this.

11/30/20 8:30am

I don't think it will happen, but WE could even be out of a bowl game. There have been cancelled bowl games and there

ESPN is contractually obligated to "find" a bowl game to put BYU in

RockyBalboa

11/30/20 8:13am

And those bowls have contracts with various conferences as well

BYU Fan

11/30/20 8:17am

I'm reasonably confident something would be worked out, but ESPN could end up having more contractually obligated slots

CalGTR

If they beat Coastal Carolina, BYU could be their bowl game on 12/19.

BamaCoug

Play in Vegas and create our own quasi bowl game.

Don’t care

Let’s schedule them in a late season game

Srg

We should play them in an exhibition bowl after our bowl.

11/30/20 11:04am

We should take advantage of Indy status and do this. Seriously.

If it was promoted right, it would be pretty awesome.

Invite them to the new "Brigham Bowl" in Provo with guaranteed payout & on ESPN
