Hooray? I like that it’s a different opponent but I hate it that the players reward for all their hard work this year is another in-State bowl trip at a place we’ve already played at this year. It’s better than Montgomery I guess.

I am ok with it. Buffalo’s D seems kind of weak and I would rather prefer to stay under the radar this year and have a breakout year next season (whatever it takes to keep our coaching staff for at least another year).

UAB ducking App by going to play NIU. MUTS going there and that is ok but should have Lizards there. I am thankful for Buffalo they are not on a roll and yes we will have home field advantage

I'm going to say that Buffalo will bring a crowd smaller than Ohio in 2010 and that was maybe 300

Where is the best bowl match up. Boca is South but Nawlins is not a bad spot for a bowl game.

North Chicago will plow UA's B Team. Coastal wiped the floor with the lizards.
The Clampets Will manhandle Central Teenneessee
The 'boro whips Ypsilanti
If NeArk takes care of business, Sunbelt wins Capital One Bowl trophy.
Oh yes, TMTDM easily stomps the Bills.

UAB recruits South Florida heavily. We were looking at playing Miami in the Independence Bowl or playing in a Florida bowl. Boca was the best fit after Miami went to the Pinstripe. NO was never on the table due to UAB hosting Auburn the same night in basketball a the BJCC Arena.

Doesn't look like they draw terribly well at home. From what I can gather 20,000 was their largest crowd and that was homecoming

I expect around 150-200... Basically all player's parents for the Bills, I mean the bulls.

They've only had 8 winning seasons since they started football... That's kinda sad...
And they're disappointed in playing us? D*mn snobby Yankees.

We'll give them a "Welcome to Alabama" they'll never forget. Hit them in the mouth and make em' like it, TMTDM way.

Buffalo seems a little off about Troy but not overwhelmingly that I can see. They wanted a big name but who doesn’t when you get that bowl. I think the Steers have had a good year and we don’t need to take them lightly but I think they will feel like newly minted steers just after the procedure once the clock hits zeros at the Ladd come Dec 22nd

Maybe a sign that says the chute for your procedure is through the tunnel leading to the field at Ladd

This is the third bowl in your pathetic history and the first time not being sent offshore. Be thankful. But rather than celebrate with the misfit lot you were allowed to recruit for the restart you’re back for the quarterly visit to see what’s happening with a truly successful program. You’d be much better served spending this rare moment in time celebrating with the tarps you’ll have to pack and ship to help fill the Boca stands.

UAB was lucky to get past Bear Bryant's son who wanted to shut down their whole athletic department if he could have.

To be fair, Buffalo doesn't really inspire me or make me think big, exciting game. Really didn't even know who they were and still wouldn't if we weren't playing them. Its probably the same for most of them. Most of them don't pay any more attention to Sunbelt football than I do MAC football.
