Truck is in the shop for a head gasket replacement, so I can't make it to church. Since I saw so many experts adjusting their picks, I figured I'd get it recorded. There does appear to be a theme this time.

Trend from the previous listing will be marked as ▲,▼, or -, if available. Due to SEC bowl tiers, some trends are subjective.

USCe has their panties in a wad wanting to play Notre Dame. We don’t have an AD right now.

They are 8-4 like us and we didn’t
play each other. Funny how they are “calling the shots.” They lost to Georgia, Arkansas, Florida Mizzouri. We lost to Georgia, Bama, LSU, Kentucky. I realize they got 2 huge wins at the end but it isn’t like there is a 2 win difference between USC and State. With that said, I would love Tampa on January 2 over Jacksonville December 30.

The only projections worth watching is McMurphy and the Athletic. The McMurphy move makes me feel better than I did last night.

Texas is a higher paying Bowl than Gator and we’ve never been there. Decent shot at a helmet win if it comes to that.

Man, it seems like we've gone from possibilities against ND, Oklahoma, Texas, and Oregon to a bunch of meh in just one week.

McMurohy knows his stuff. Follow his Twitter today for some early news on bowls. The Athletic, meh, they've had us in the Music City even after beating Ole Miss.

The Athletic reports why they are hearing things. That’s what I like about them.

McMurphy just updates his projections. Sometimes he tweets why.

From McMurphy: Many moving parts & some decisions still to be made w/in SEC & ACC that could impact multiple bowls

As I stated, if Notre Dame decides Gator it's them and SC, and us vs Illinois in Tampa. If they decide Holiday, SC goes to Tampa, and we get UNC in Jville. Freaking Irish holding things up

ND choosing between Gator and Holiday. Tenn vs Purdue for CheezIt.

LSU vs Purdue in Cheeze It Citrus Bowl. There is a Cheeze It Bowl also in Orlando between the ACC/ND and Big 12. Looks like ND is out on that one. It's between the Gator and Holiday.

Well, they have two open invitations. Depending on which they accept, the SEC will make their choices.

Yeah. We aren't playing ND. If they pick Gator it's against SC, and we go to Tampa vs Illinois. If they pick Holiday vs Oregon, SC goes to Tampa, and we get sent to Jville vs UNC who gets booted from the Holiday by ND.

Holiday Bowl is ACC vs Pac-12 in San Diego, btw.

ND would be accepting the ACC slot.

judging by the responses to Brett’s tweets, the schittbirds are unhappy about it. I love it.

They didn't want it. They actually thought they were going to bump us out of a Florida game. SEC and our athletic department showed them their place.
