I'm sure the players would prefer Music City or Vegas but maybe we'd have an advantage in the Pinstripe. We just got ddone playing a game in the cold and snow.
Opt out of Bowl?
- Thread starter MacNit
- Start date
That’s why the Big added Maryland and Rutgers. Gives them something to play for when they play each other.
Just wondering--why would the players prefer the Music City Bowl? I get Vegas but why Nashville?
With the way they substitute to give everyone some PT, the Senior Bowl is hardly like a real game. Plus there are special rules in place to help minimize the chance of injuries. Also, the game and practices are attended by NFL types so there's the opportunity to impress them with up-close workouts and drills.
the poster I was responding to made the comment that they have already shown they are ready for the NFL so no reason to play that game either. Injuries happen. I have seen players get hurt who were not ever touched by another player. You can have an opportunity to impress NFL Types at your schools Senior Day work outs. If you are good enough the NFL Types will find you.

Dotson and Brisker should definitely out of all post-season play. Ebiketie might benefit from playing in the Senior Bowl, but I think he's already proven himself to those at the next level who are in a position to know.
PSU has played in a number of high-profile games on national TV and the best players have already showcased themselves......a concept probably lost on you.

Agree that Vegas is best. PSU already played in Pinstripe Bowl a few years ago. Besides, it's warmer in NBC Nashville.
This is a great answer and I would like it a million times if I could.
I see another game similar to the Houston blowout after the Sandusky mess. This year's team team strikes me as having that same low level of motivation, except without any legitimate excuse.
Ah... I had mercifully forgotten about that humiliation, with the pedo bear and all the rest.
May they all burn in hell.
