2017 College Football Playoff and Bowl Projections (Championship Week Edition)

Most do not know that the ACC accepted a tiered system for the bowl games meaning they are obligated to seed the teams. This year after the Orange Bowl the seedlings are Pinstripe, Bell, Sun, Taxslayer and Music City. Used to be there was more flexibility in who the ACC wanted. Since BC and NC State finished ahead of us it is likely that BC will get Pinstripe and State will get Belk. By the time we get to Sun or Taxslayer, I believe Michigan will consider those beneath them.
Purdue vs Kentucky. That would be fun to watch.
Right and the fact they just fired their coach, which already gives them an excuse and why this game would fall into the “what do we gain” other than extra 45 days of practice.
Speak for yourself. The last place I want to be is NY for a bowl. Lol. Give me warm weather!
A NYC Bowl in December is a little counter-culture(says a veteran of the Humanitarian and Memphis Ice Bowls).
But Christmas in NYC can be pretty cool.

Well I’d much rather play Michigan than Arizona St, so if the Sun bowl vs Michigan could be worked out then I’d be all for it I suppose.
And appreciate your point and playing Michigan would be great. Doesn’t seem to be in the Cards. So ASU is fine with me, but if I had my preference it would be a Bowl in FL. Warmth and easier travel.
I know that some people think Charlie and USF are beneath us but think about it:
1) like to see strong’s Defense against Bobby’s offense
2) chance to recruit Florida players
3) good chance of a win and finish 9-4
4) warm weather
