KSR saying...

[bigblue_07_rivals]

it's either Iowa in music city bowl or Miami in belk bowl.

 

[bigblue_07_rivals]

Take your pick.

 

[LawCat1989_rivals]

Fine with either, would prefer Nashville for travel purposes. Great to have options!

 

[PikeCat15]

Where did you see this? Not doubting you, I just looked around KSR and twitter and didn't see it.

 

[bigblue_07_rivals]

It was on their radio show earlier.

Give me Tha U

 

[bigblue_07_rivals]

We could beat Miami they have no offense. Defense is decent.

 

[ThwKentuckyKid]

Beating Miami would help recruiting more.

Music City pay-out 2.75M, Belk payout 1.7M.

Rather play in a good city, if you like nice airport, nothing to do, nice topography, probably have a nice karoke at the Holiday Inn then Charlotte is your city. It is a dud of city. Let's hope it's Nash Vegas or Jacksonville. UT has bigger alumni base in Carolina's. Intrigued by playing Miami but Charlotte is a dud. Nashville not because I live here but I work in Charlotte a lot, it is nice enough to work in and fly in and out of but not for 2-3 days of bowl fun.

UK doesn't get to keep that money. They get a very small % and the rest goes into pot and then divide amongst all SEC schools.

 

[Real Deal 2]

I also don't think UK will travel that well to Charlotte, not because of BB game but not a destination city. Hell give me Shreveport

UK can spend the hell out of it and whatever they don't use than goes back to SEC. Most of the kids are going to drive into city to save their money, UK will blow it or should, Invite boosters, families of coaches and admin. Blow it

 

[BIGCAT4LIFE]

The U. I want kids in South Florida watching our Bowl game, and know who Kentucky is when they are recruiting them.

Soooo hurtful.

^^^^ This..... The money is pooled each school gets 50-60 % of the payout. We benefit from Bama being in the playoff and whomever gets the Sugar Bowl invite.
As far as the Belk bowl possible opponent, Miami makes no sense, they do not have a huge following, it would be someone like UNC, WF, or maybe GT, that would bring more fans.

 

[ThwKentuckyKid]

Soooo hurtful.

We recruit Florida pretty hard, nothing against Iowa.

 

[DACats86]

Soooo hurtful.

No offense intended. We don't recruit Iowa/Midwest very heavily.

Way off topic, but tell us about your new avatar.

 

[Cazwheel1072]

Iowa is a much better football team than Miami.

That would be a tough matchup.

 

[KWilt43atbuzz]

Its going to be Nashville and Iowa.

 

[hawkimatt_rivals107995]

None taken. Just messin' with you. Would really enjoy the matchup and the venue, if it's the MCB. Always interesting to face a team coached by one of our former players.

They average 34.5 points per game. I wouldn't say they are chop liver on offense.

 

[dnabbott25]

Rather play Miami. ....Iowa beat Michigan

 

[jte123]

Miami's O isn't bad , I might sure there are some quick dudes on that team.

 

[Anon1660081258]

Agree on the Canes. Lesser opponent, with more important exposure for recruiting... a strange contradiction. We have nothing to really gain from playing a more competitive game versus Iowa or similar. Let's maximize chance of victory, and build that South Florida street cred.
