AD is a Dukie who doesn't know squat about SEC football. This stands a chance of being a royal cluster.
Even if LSU loses this weekend they will finish 6-5. Hard to see them dropping behind the 6-6 teams. Thus I expect to see them get an invite from one of the gang of six bowls. My guess would be Liberty or Texas if A&M goes to the Cotton.
However, there is speculation the SEC office will drop them to Independence as punishment for the way they handled the Florida game reschedule.
I never saw the official word, why was that game moved to Baton Rouge instead of Gainesville?
I think LSU simply insisted on it and wouldn't budge. It's pretty rare for one school's AD to publicly rebuke another AD, but that happened here. Aleva has had a comically bad year, first firing then unfiring then firing Miles, so now he's being criticized from all corners: media, other ADs, and even the league office. Not to mention his own fan base of course (funny how fans run to the poles on their own AD, either awesome or awful, no in between). I wondered if Aleva drew hard lines in the sand about this silly thing just to win dummy points from LSU fans (we showed them!) in the end, they lost the game anyway - and whomever the new guy is now gets to go to Gainsville in back to back years....
However the 17 & 18 UF/LSU games will be played in Gainesville and then they start the rotation back in 19.
Excellent post, i completely agree. Also, there have been releases by the Belk, Music City, and taxslayer bowls regarding teams that are in the running and UK has not been listed. I see many here thinking we're going to nashville or charlotte. Not happening unless we win on saturday.
Please BE Memphis or Nashville - I AM NOT GOING TO SHREVEPORT OR BIRMINGHAM FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER......
Glad you guys are going to a Bowl and wish you good luck and a Good Clean injury free game this Saturday. Taking a leave from here-(Know most will be very happy...lol) until around signing day.
Have a Great Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year.

My guess is the combination of a UK basketball game the night before vs Ole Miss and a bowl game in Memphis will carry some appeal for decision makers. Just a guess.
Well, that doesn't sound like we are even under consideration, so scratch Nashville.
I think they might have a list of preferred teams, but it doesn't guarantee they will get them. They might have to settle for a team like us if they don't get one of the first 3 or 4 picks. I am just curious how they do the picks since the 6 pool bowls are considered equal? If it is a random draw and then they see if the school they want actually wants to go to that bowl, it could be interesting. I believe the schools and the conference work together on which bowls they will end up going to.
Maybe with the crap LSU pulled with Florida, to go along with them having a disappointing year and firing their coach, might move them down the bowl list. Plus do you want a bigger named school that just had a disappointing season and might not get the fan support for the bowl or a team going to their first bowl in over 5 years who brings a ton of fans to their bowl games?
