No, the team did not choose Frisco to avoid BYU. It wasn't the team.

UTSA’s placement in the Frisco Bowl was the result of an agreement between Conference USA and ESPN that provides ESPN Events the first selection from the league’s teams during the bowl invitation process. The Independence and New Orleans bowls are not run by ESPN Events. https://t.co/ukujtAzk9g

They need to. Losing only perpetuates that the committee was correct.

Good. The various bowl decisionmakers need to know they blew this one.

It says they were disappointed in the bowl, not the opponent..

It could be a diplomatic way of disliking the opponent or a reflection of payout
