December 10, 201510 yr Can they? Sure. Will they? Not an easy prospect based on history. LSU: Advocare Texas Bowl vs. Texas Tech Auburn: Birmingham Bowl vs. Memphis Miss. St.: Belk Bowl vs. NC State Texas A&M: Music City Bowl vs. Louisville Tennessee: Outback Bowl vs. Northwestern Florida: Citrus Bowl vs. Michigan Ole Miss: Sugar Bowl vs. Oklahoma State Georgia: Gator Bowl vs. Penn State Arkansas: Liberty Bowl vs. Kansas State Alabama: Playoff vs. Michigan State

I think Florida loses to Michigan and I think Texas A&M loses to Louisville.
December 10, 201510 yr I know it's going to be in Birmingham and all, but I have ZERO faith in Auburn's ability to beat Memphis. I think the Tigers win that one. I think the clearest SEC victories are LSU over Texas Tech, Miss. St. over NC State, and Arkansas over Kansas State. If the thing with Richt hadn't gone down, I'd have pegged Georgia to destroy Penn State, but you never know how things will go after all the drama.
December 10, 201510 yr No. LSU vs Texas Tech = LSU Auburn vs Memphis = Memphis Mississippi St vs NC State = NC State Texas A&M vs Louisville = Texas A&M Bama vs Michigan State = Bama Bama vs Clemson? = Clemson Tennessee vs Northwestern = Tennessee Arkansas vs Kansas St = Arkansas Oklahoma St vs Ole Miss = OK State Georgia vs Penn St = Georgia

I will add, as a counter-point, if LSU shows up giving a solitary darn about that game, they could beat Texas Tech by eleventy-billion.
December 10, 201510 yr History says no. You also have to factor in motivation, new coaches, and time away from the game when predicting bowls. Every year there are some bowl results that likely would not have happened if they had been played the week after Thanksgiving.

There is an x-factor there, too.
December 10, 201510 yr How will Memphis react under a new head coach? There is an x-factor there, too. Fair point. I had a brain fart about Fuente's departure.
December 10, 201510 yr Sure they can. The more important question is will they. History would say no, although I think they will win a majority of them.
December 10, 201510 yr LSU: Advocare Texas Bowl vs. Texas Tech Auburn: Birmingham Bowl vs. Memphis Miss. St.: Belk Bowl vs. NC State Texas A&M: Music City Bowl vs. Louisville Tennessee: Outback Bowl vs. Northwestern Florida: Citrus Bowl vs. Michigan Ole Miss: Sugar Bowl vs. Oklahoma State Georgia: Gator Bowl vs. Penn State Arkansas: Liberty Bowl vs. Kansas State Alabama: Playoff vs. Michigan State Bolded are how I think it goes...SEC 7-4 in Bowl Games this season...
December 11, 201510 yr Can they? Sure. Will they? Not an easy prospect based on history. LSU: Advocare Texas Bowl vs. Texas Tech Auburn: Birmingham Bowl vs. Memphis Miss.
