Pac-12 v SEC in Las Vegas Bowl?
Could be, according to McMustache:
https://www.facebook.com/TheBrettMcMurphy/
Quote:The Las Vegas Bowl will move from UNLV’s Sam Boyd Stadium to Vegas’ new NFL stadium in 2020 and in the process end a 19-year relationship with the Mountain West Conference, sources said.
Starting in 2020, which coincides with the beginning of the next NCAA bowl cycle, the Las Vegas Bowl will feature a Pac-12 team against another Power 5 conference team, sources said.
Quote:A Pac-12 vs. SEC matchup would be the most intriguing and some sources consider the SEC the favorite to ultimately face the Pac-12 in the Vegas Bowl starting in 2020.

This type of game should have happened a long time ago. No reason for the SEC to be playing 3 bowl games each against the B1G and ACC.

Probably last call for the I-Bowl hosting P5.
If they are smart (history says they aren't) they should be gearing up to try to make the I-Bowl CUSA 1 v Sun Belt 1 because more often than not, at least one of the teams will be proximate to Shreveport.

The Pac-12 and SEC aren't the only pair of P5s without a shared bowl tie-in. The Big Ten and Big 12 haven't played in a bowl game since the Cotton Bowl on 1/1/15 (Michigan State 42, Baylor 41), and their meeting was due mainly to chance.
