Not one Northern Kentucky player and none from Louisville? What a joke.

It's just the first 12 selected players, Jack. I'm sure there will be a broader representation when the rosters are fleshed out.

Hey...just wanted to let the Border Bowl People know...Former Border Bowl Defensive MVP, Adam Dempsey #91, will be opening his season on national TV (ESPN) tonite for the Cincinnati Bearcats against Pitt. He IMMENSELY enjoyed his time at the Border Bowl, made a lot of friends, and has very fond memories of the experience! I encourage anyone nominated to participate.

Are there any roster updates?

Tevin Slaughter and Tyson Williams from Somerset have made Team.

I am not sure why they are releasing the roster in pieces, but like Queen of Pink said, Fogle from Conner was selected, and I'm sure there will be quite a few players from Louisville on this squad as well.
