Ouch....
Quote:Camellia Bowl (5). Bowling Green vs. South Alabama, Dec. 20, 9:15 p.m. ET.
If this matchup were a holiday gift, it would be: A lump of coal in the stocking.
Motivation edge: South Alabama, substantially. First bowl game in school history, and it’s in their backyard to theoretically create a major home-field advantage. Bowling Green should be excited about any chance to head south in December, but the team has gone south on the field, losing its last three games.
Fan fun meter: In a word, low. The first modern-day Camellia Bowl undoubtedly will go all-out to provide some stuff to do, but Montgomery, Ala., ain’t exactly Honolulu.
Dash pick: South Alabama 30, Bowling Green 27. The Jaguars’ offense is balanced, which is a polite way of saying it does nothing particularly well. But the Falcons’ defense is horrendous, allowing 500 yards of offense and 34 points per game. Bowling Green could have a tough time covering South Alabama receiver Shavarez Smith.
Conference scoreboard: Sun Belt 1-1, MAC 0-2.

no offense to SA, but this happens when you pair up a couple 6-6 teams.

this game looks like the Sugar Bowl matchup between Bama/Ohio State compared to the Motor City Bowl, 7-5 North Carolina vs 6-6 Rutgers in Detroit, the day after Christmas, they will be lucky to get 15,000.

I don't care what this guy says I'm excited as hell for bowl season and plan on watching anywhere from 90-100% of bowls

I could probably count on both hands the bowls that I'll be disappointed if I don't get to see, and this is one of them. Folks just get a kick out of belittling the "lesser" bowls. And then they watch them anyway.

I care about watching three bowls, and three bowls only.
The rest don't affect me or my team, so.... eh.
