Maybe I'm whistling past the graveyard a bit and 'because Mizzou' will bite us, but I don't feel like it. This team is a draw. Great WR group and maybe the best RB in the country (at least the resume competes with anyone) - a strong, fast, aggressive defense. What's not to like about them as a bowl selection committee? They're fine.

Really what would've helped the most was Florida State losing.
That gives them the ACC slot in the selection bowl (orange, I think) so nobody has to select Louisville and then Louisville drops out. But with the ACC tie-in and FSU in the playoff, Louisville is still in. But if Washington takes that 4th playoff spot and the Orange can take FSU, that would free up an at-large selection probably for ole-miss.

Missouri at #9 in the AP poll. Behind Alabama and in front of Penn State. They are the highest ranked 2 loss team.

I don’t see them dropping any the rest of the year. I do wonder if they could jump Alabama or Texas if they lose in their respective conference championship games. Genuinely interested to see who they play in their bowl. Would suck if they got stuck with Tulane or something like that.

More prestigious bowl game against a boring opponent that we won't get up for and we'll end up losing to finish the season on a sour note.

There were a ton of Mizzou fans at the game the other day I started feeling bad for some of them.
You could not even talk shit. Anyone still around toward the end was a real one and deserved respect. |

Honestly giving Mizzou a game against Tulane says a lot about what the committee thinks of what they accomplished this season. No knock on Tulane, but not giving them a better bowl game opponent would be a huge insult to their season.

Has anyone seen what the latest predictions are in regards to the bowl games?
I'm not in the mood to pay for ESPN+ just to see.. |

I view the Peach and Cotton Bowls as lesser based on what they've been the last 40 years. Archaic, perhaps, but I wanted a "BCS" bowl for them. No concern about NY6.

Mizzou still 9. I’m curious where Kiffen and ol miss fans think they should magically move up three spots to take our NY6 bid? It doesn’t make any sense.

I'd rather play Ole Miss in the ****ing Outback Bowl...
God that Tulane matchup sucks.
