BWW Bound Now?

This from a K State reporter. Essentially we still know nothing!

Yeah, MAndel retweeting and confirming. IT is pretty much KSU - Michigan now.
I think this is official because McMurphy and Mandel are going with it. Should be a good game.
December 8th, 2013 at 7:28 PM ^
rumors of the Gator Bowl are still floating about too . . . .

But basically, they are saying the same thing as all the others - "reputable news outlets from both cities say . . . "
Seems interesting that the news outlets in Ann Arbor, Athens, and Manhattan are saying BOTH of these bowls are a given. When is the official announcement, anyway ?
EDIT: looked it up myself - official word should be no more than one hour from now - 8:30 for those of you in Michigan . . .
December 8th, 2013 at 7:51 PM ^
Screw it, let's play both bowls.
Mo' money, mo' money, mo' money!
December 8th, 2013 at 6:49 PM ^
yes!!!
December 8th, 2013 at 6:50 PM ^
December 28th - what a great day to play a bowl game
:-(

Well they better win that match up.
December 8th, 2013 at 6:50 PM ^
We can win and -- more importantly -- I can go.
December 8th, 2013 at 6:51 PM ^
Sounds good MT @Sean_Callahan: RT @KellisRobinett: KState headed to Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl to face Michigan, according to a source.

Man, I was really hoping Gator. I'm still holding out some hope. We're traveling the few days after X-mas and will have to find someplace to watch the game. Can't plan a party at home like I wanted on the first.
December 8th, 2013 at 6:54 PM ^
Blah....lets just get it over with.
December 8th, 2013 at 6:55 PM ^
I'm going to the basketball game that night. Shit.
December 8th, 2013 at 6:58 PM ^
You can see both!
December 8th, 2013 at 6:56 PM ^
If anyone is interested, here is the K-Stated analysis of its own potential bowl fate - (LINK). Not sure how current their update is, but they list their possibilities as the BWW Bowl or the Holiday Bowl, so basically either a Big Ten or Pac-12 opponent. Supposedly, there was some scuttlebutt that they might go to the Holiday Bowl - per their sources - but they would now at least concur on the BWW possibility.

That would be a noon kickoff Korea Standard Time. I like it, but people on Eastern Time who sleep at night may not.
December 8th, 2013 at 7:02 PM ^
Thankfully it's a Saturday. Not going to be totally disastrous for those of us in the Eastern Time Zone.
December 8th, 2013 at 6:57 PM ^
I like this on many levels. The game may get better ratings on the 28th than as a random game on the 1st, it won't conflict with the other Jan. 1 games, and given that K State is also 7-5 I think we should have a decent chance to win. That said, it would a less impressive win (or loss) than Georgia. Plus one of the things that has made Michigan Michigan in the past was that we get pushed up into a better bowl game than we perhaps deserve. Not sure if this means that the aura has faded.

Why would the Gator Bowl pass on Michigan? Who is the fourth pick from the Big Ten that is a better pick for a bowl than Michigan that would allow the Wolverines to slide to 5th pick BWW? Nebraska because they travel? Blah.
December 8th, 2013 at 7:00 PM ^
BWW Bowl actually has the pick over the Gator. So that's why they are picking Michigan.
December 8th, 2013 at 7:01 PM ^
December 8th, 2013 at 7:01 PM ^
BWW picks before Gator
December 8th, 2013 at 7:02 PM ^
we are a 5 loss team, back to back years? Other than that as the reason, I am not sure.
Go Blue!
December 8th, 2013 at 7:03 PM ^
I understood that the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl picked before the Gator Bowl this year. The Gator Bowl (assuming the rumor to be true) will not have the opportunity to pass on Michigan.

UGA isn't that good.

as an unbeatable juggernaut despite not having three key offensive players.
December 8th, 2013 at 7:29 PM ^
December 8th, 2013 at 7:32 PM ^
is a top 20 team. They aren't. All of these teams are roughly equivalent.
December 8th, 2013 at 7:40 PM ^
December 8th, 2013 at 9:27 PM ^
Shifting the goal posts on the guy from "unbeatable juggernaut" to "top 20 team".
But they overcame a 20 point deficit against GaTech at GaTech once their backup QB got acclimated in his first start.
I think they are still a top-20 team.
December 8th, 2013 at 7:01 PM ^
NOT playing in a bowl, I thought that would be a big snub. http://www.hustlebelt.com/2013/12/8/5189474/mid-american-conference-announces-2013-bowl-selections

December 8th, 2013 at 7:01 PM ^
Damn 10:15 start time? Come on. That's rediculous. The game won't even be over until well after 1am. That's just stupid. Who schedules this crap?
