I saw one of Gabe's tweets earlier that said the Cotton Bowl is "obligated" to take the loser of the SEC CCG.....but every site I look at has MU losing to Auburn and dropping to the Capital One Bowl not the Cotton Bowl. Most keep pointing toward the Cotton Bowl taking LSU or aTm with Johnny Football putting butts in the seats. Then put Baylor in the mix (with Okie Lite taking the BCS spot) and the Cotton Bowl is guaranteeing SRO for that game.
If that is true...it kinda sucks IMO. |

The pecking order is
CapOne Outback/Cotton The Cotton is obligated to take them if they fall that far so if the CapOne takes the loser it's a moot point. The Cotton & Outback make their picks in tandem. The CapOne would be the best bowl out of those options pitting the top SEC team not in the BCS against the top non BCS team from the Big Ten. It would be a great slot.

So if the CapOne passes on us for A&M (Manziel's last college game), I could see LSU in the Cotton, Mizzou in the Outback Bowl. Playing a bowl in Tampa wouldn't be the worst thing; good exposure to high-level recruits. It's also against a Big 10 opponent, IIRC, who we should piss-pound (thus further separating the SEC from the B1G and help in midwest recruiting). But I doubt I'll go if it's in Tampa. I'd probably go to the Cotton Bowl, just to see the Jerry Dome.

I just hope we don't get bumped in the pecking order by South Carolina. That would really suck.
But if we lose, it will probably happen. |

It will take me a few weeks to get interested if we lose Sat. Next to the Big 12 Title game in '07 it's the biggest game we've played in my life. Opportunities like this don't come often for MU.

That's why we have to win, you win and you don't have to worry about that.

For some reason I thought the Cotton Bowl was higher in the pecking order. I could see the Cotton wanting Johnny Football for his swan song game. What I don't see is SC bypassing us if we lose unless we get completely blown out by Auburn. |

Win and MIZZOU will have no worries.
