Wow - awesome. Any bowl would be great this year, but to potentially play Auburn, UNC or Louisville is even better. Okay, Ohio would be less enticing. However, no one had us in a bowl this year - except me. I pick RU to win the natty every year.
While I love the idea, this bowl doesn’t have a relationship with the B1G.
Either he thinks from the long, very long, list of schools from the conference tie ins won’t be able to find someone or he’s just trying to be funny.
I’m going with the latter here.

Positive predictions , that's the way I like it.
Bring the heat, melt the Freeze :WooHoo:

Think it was once known as the famous Beef O;Brady Bowl the Rutgers fans still revere when talking RU Bowl appearances
I just looked it up and the plus is it's played at RayJay. I haven't been there in years.
Gasparilla is HUGE in Tampa. It's a big "pirate" festival "celebrating" the invasion of Tampa by a pirate who didn't exist! Ton of fun; went twice when I lived there!!!
BTW - we would have a very, VERY good turnout IMHO. A Friday evening game in Tampa with Christmas not until Monday following the weekend? Couldn't ask for a better opportunity at 6-6 IMHO.
I'd rather only see bowl projections once we have 6 wins. These early projections, especially posted on this board, has jinx all over it! 
The "projection" isn't from "this board." it's okay.I'd rather only see bowl projections once we have 6 wins. These early projections, especially posted on this board, has jinx all over it!
Sounds cool. I'll be there.
Am I in before 4real tells us how he drove the whole way at 200mph?
Did you take a peek at all the conferences, not named the B1G, that have a relationship with this game?
Aside from getting to six wins a whole lotta other stuff would have to happen for us to get this particular bowl.
I was down for Spring training and had no idea what Gasparilla was but found out soon from a friend at Cigar City Brewing. This was the Arts Festival part in March. Holy crap it was crowded. Ended up guest bartending in Cigar City's tent a few days. Lots of fun and brews!
This was a move @JoeRU0304 and I talked about for years on here.
While I would still like it to be post-Christmas and have a higher purse, it's still so much better now.
Be a nice opportunity to get down there a bit early and hit Bern's.
Don't worry about the purse. It goes into the Big Ten pool. Raymond James is a fabulous stadium.
If it happens that would be a great place for a get together.
If it does happen if we make it there (highly doubtful) it would be perfect for Rutgers fans. So easy to get to. Plenty of places to stay etcThat’s part of the “still so much better” stuff.
I'd be there in a second. Would host something big in the lot for our visitors.
The stories I have about Friday’s, Hooters and Mons Venus ….oooooof!I know exactly where you mean
Really early to be projecting what bowl, if any, we will be going to. People need to dial things back a bit. It takes 6 wins to become bowl eligible, not 2.
