December 3, 200817 yr As crazy as it sounds, a buddy of mine was reading an article from ITV, and apparently if Louisville wins Thursday night at Rutgers, there's an outside chance they would be invited to the Hawaii Bowl. I personally don't see it happening, even with a win.
December 3, 200817 yr I hope they make it. What a great treat that would be for the players, and for the fans that could afford it.

December 3, 200817 yr I'll confess...I've been praying novenas & rosaries, and lighting candles for weeks for this. If it happens, you can credit me with that miracle. Just don't forget to write the Pope! When I'm up for sainthood, they're gonna need proof of miracles that I'm responsible for. I think this will rank up there among the most miraculous.

December 3, 200817 yr They have a victory over a team that was in the top 20 during the year. 6-6 fits. Bring fans. Only had one blown out loss. I can see it, and I know football.
December 3, 200817 yr It looks like the SEC, PAC 10, and the Big 12 are not going to be able to fill their bowl obligations. Not exactly sure how the process works but several bowls will be looking for a team to fill their vacancy. There are a whole bunch of 6-6 teams out there, if Loiusville wins I would think they have a pretty good shot at getting one of them.
December 3, 200817 yr They could start the Slugger Bowl and play Trinity or X. Wouldn't they want to schedule someone they can beat?

December 3, 200817 yr If they were to go to Hawaii, I'd find some way to go... Most people fly on an airplane..
December 3, 200817 yr Most people fly on an airplane.. If you know anyone from Cuba, they can help you build a boat at virtually no cost. :lol: Anyhoo, back to the thread, there are just too many bowl games and they keep adding more each year. I say invite EVERYONE to a bowl game, even the teams who have only won a game or two. Just sad.

I say invite EVERYONE to a bowl game, even the teams who have only won a game or two. Just sad. My take is different. It is better for these 6-6 or 7-6 teams to get the extra practice time. It helps to build the programs. It also is an experience for any college football player to say they have been to a bowl. Let's be real here, ... we invite 65 teams to have a shot at a national title with the NCAA tourney, ... and some have losing records but just happened to get how and win their conference tourney. Will they win a national title? Highly doubtful, .... but they can say they played in the NCAA tourney. I am not for everyone getting in, but I see no harm in it. What is really bad about it?
