Lots of sites have us going to New Orleans this year. Possible opponents I’ve seen range from La Tech to FAU
Also just reported by Brett McMurphy sources say UAB and Ohio are to play each other in Bahamas bowl.
So we don’t have to worry about another Ohio game or a UAB rivalry Bowl game

The Bahamas's bowl willl be pre-planned or leaked due to travel etc....just would not go against ArkStfan with prediction. Looks like Toledo in DG but only 80/20 chance

Congratulations to all the fans that demanded this team be brought back... we are sending you to the Bahamas where most of you wont be able to go. And most of the $ donated by fans to bring the program back will be spent to subsidize this trip. Congratulations! I would be mad if i was fan! I know it is a reward for the players but come on, the fans are getting screwed in this one.

So we don’t have to worry about another Ohio game or a UAB rivalry Bowl game Would love to go to NO just because of the date, but I think most sites put us there just because by the time they get to the Sunbelt predictions they're just throwing darts at the wall. Some of them had us going to the Arizona for awhile. New Orleans against FAU would be fun especially since we lost to them on their way out the door (anyone still have that shot of FAU players pow wowing on the logo midfield with our guys circling them?). I predict Mobile regardless of the opponent (but glad it's not Ohio again).

I could never tell the difference between FAU and FIU. Same team if you ask me.

Word on Ho Street...after TMTDM win Saturday...Independence Bowl versus Florida State. December 27th. Book room now. Ho hear from big time FSU Eexecutive that plan and he not happy about it but they finish 6-6 and have no choice. $EC not qualify enough team so the go fishing for opponent. SunBelch office pushing for it too. FSU Eexecutive hammered to so he tell truth. Cool refreshing alcohol ultimate truth serum.
10-2, conference champ with win over LSU good to promote on tv. Date is great too.extra time to sell ticket. After Christmas so no excuse for clown on board not to attend other than Shreveport half way around world from Pike County.
Ark State to New Orleans AppState to Mobile GaState to Johnny Williams Bowl NMSU to Arizona Bowl

More convenient for sure. That would basically be a home game for Troy.

Neither FSU or if we were being shopped to Shreveport would actually like the day or site as far as fan travel. The MAC is not enamored with Mobile the 23rd. The bowl itself does not want to not have the MAC champion since WMU to access last year. So the bowl wants their champ against Troy probably win or lose but definitely win.......Howver, UNLESS something better for bowl and community....enter FSU since THEY FSU are not thrilled by the Independence bowl....Payouts not important to FSU and marketing wise ESPN wins with promotable bowl on prime time on Saturday nite....so as the Ho says, if this is going to be considered as the league office is considering an FSU Troy match do not be surprised if that were NOT in Shreveport but closer to home.

With UAs B team going to the Bahamas Bowl, does this now make it "The Island of Misfit Boys"?

Possible opponents I’ve seen range from La Tech to FAU Also just reported by Brett McMurphy sources say UAB and Ohio are to play each other in Bahamas bowl. So we don’t have to worry about another Ohio game or a UAB rivalry Bowl game And I've told you a thousand times, those sites have Troy in New Orleans, because they project Troy to be champs, and NOLA has first pick, which in most normal worlds means they take Troy. However this is not most normal worlds. NOLA can take whoever the hell they want. Here's what I've been told: 1. Mobile wants Toledo vs Troy provided Toledo wins the MAC. They'd probably take Troy regardless what happens Saturday, but it might lessen the value. Toledo doesn't want Mobile, and thinks they can play the "we choose our bowl destination" game. Mobile is unlikely to be very willing to give that up. App and AState cannot play Toledo because they just recently played. That leaves Troy as the only potential opponent. 2. Arkansas State does not want to play in NOLA due to the potential opponent and kickoff time. (Seriously, a 1pm kickoff sucks) Appalachian State doesn't want to play in Montgomery because they've been there 2 straight years. NOLA and Montgomery are working together and willing to go along with what both those schools want. Both are intrigued by the potential numbers the fan bases might bring. 3. While the Cure Bowl would love to jump in and take one of the top 3 teams, the lack of an AAC opponent this year (That spot is likely vacant) means it's going to fall to Georgia State unless the Panthers have naked pictures of Camelia Bowl officials or something.

I remember that, but I forgot to write it down in the "Troy Redemption Book." I do have Nebraska down as needing a beating next season and I hear there is a possibility FSU could get a beating this season in a bowl. You mean Omar Haugabook and the team? That was in 2007 when Troy went 8-4 with no bowl and Haugabook at QB. Hampton wasn't even on campus then, or if he was be was redshirted. Just saying...

Took a cheap shot at Levi, too, the next year. There's more to my dislike of FAU than one game. I was always much more interested in beating these guys down than I was in our routine thrashing of MTSU, though we do need to get that trophy back, dang it.

Their fans were a reflection on their team in terms of attitude and class whether it was at Lockhart or their new stadium. You could count on being cussed and belittled constantly when you were playing FAU.
