This is where we should be in the pecking order. So I’m content.

But I’ve heard we had to do a **** ton of politicking to not get shat on by the SEC office for this.... and I’m incredibly disappointed in that.

Agree that this is where we should be slotted. Head to Head should always trump conference record when it is close. Kentucky deserved Citrus. A&M wanted a Florida bowl and got one. These bowls are supposed to be equal, so it was the most fair placement. I was expecting to get screwed since A&M is a bigger program with a larger fanbase and will probably travel well since it has been a while since they have been to a Florida bowl. Unfortunately we have to keep the SEC in check when it comes to these things. They will screw us in a heartbeat.

Cohen and Keenum went to bat for us bigtime, no doubt. Otherwise, probably would not have happened.

To me, this bowl is a great reflection of the steady ascendance of our Program.

Let us all do our part and show up in Florida with bells on.
