    I'm not thrilled about this draw... not really for the opponent, but for the venue.
    I was hoping we'd either jump to the Insight, or drop to the Texas Bowl.

    The Independence Bowl is a DUMP.
    Directly across the street from a lovely refinery... the "bouquets" enjoyed during a game are... unique.
    :x

    I see that Richt has lost some of his defensive staff and will be handling that himself for the bowl?
    Might not be a good idea against an offense that is really hitting stride...

    I suppose the fact that he'll be facing a defense the equivalent of a wet paper bag doesn't really worry him too much.

    Oh well... it's more practice for a lot of young guys so I'll take it!

    That would be the one Sid.

    I'm trying to put a good face on it, but this is the LAST bowl I wanted the Aggies to be in...
