Looks like it might happen. Up to the Raiders. We're probably not involved but as has been mentioned the switching of picks within the the A5 may present new opportunities for us. In particular I think this opens up the Liberty Bowl for our non ny6 champ or next best.

The big xii commish also pointed out there are more possible bowls than bowl ties so we may see some interesting set ups that we haven't seen before. I could see a bowl having a rotating at large spot or something off the wall like that.

Nice hidden tidbit though, we should know by the end of the summer how things will be looking:

Quote:Because the NCAA is expected to begin the bowl certification process by Sunday, there will be a rush nationwide to establish contracts between postseason games and conferences.

“I’m hopeful we will have our deals in place by the start of football season,” Saccenti said. “Keep in mind, we’re dealing with a lot of different groups.”
