It sucks that football season is over.
Iâll still watch but wonât lie and say Iâm excited for it.
Not a great matchup for us. Good running team with a mobile QB. Who knows who will play/care on either side tho
I personally wouldnât get up for it with no chance of an edible mascot

Can someone at least ask Elliott his favorite poptart flavor?
Does he have a favorite tax form??
1040 EZ
Really need to make this a thing. Maybe the mascot is Irving R Scheister, or something.
Happy for the team to be here and get a chance to send off this group in the proper manor. If you told the 4th 5th and 6th yrs theyâd be in the Gator Bowl back when they were 1st yra theyâd never believe you.
Realistically this is disappointing and Iâm still bummed over Saturday. Iâm sure it will pass eventually and by the time the bowl rolls around Iâll be up for it.
I am concerned about ticket sales. Its going to be hard to convince the base to buy in and I donât know what the sales hook is.
Is it a bad matchup? Genuinely curious because on paper it looks like a pretty one dimensional offense, albeit probably the best at that one dimension of any team weâve faced. Feel like we can stack the box a bit more and keep it low(ish) scoring.
Our offense is going to have a tough time but hopefully the extra break gets us coming in a little healther on that side of the ball
Iâm fully invested in this one. Will be maybe 5k UVA fans there which is totally understandable but itâs a solid opponent from a P2 conference who was relevant throughout the season. A win for our first 11 win season would be a big accomplishment to sell when portal recruiting opens up and generally a positive ending that would help draw our fanbase back in
Missouriâs 4 conference wins were against the bottom 4 teams in the SEC with 3 cumulative wins (2 against Arkansas, 1 against Kentucky). Their wins were vs bad teams and those teamsâ few wins were against bad teams. Their claim to fame is 4 closish losses to Alabama, Oklahoma, TAMU and Vandy. A solidly mediocre SEC team that wouldâve been a good regular season OOC test, but for the bowl game itâll depend on whoâs playing for either team.
Hope they have similar opt outs as South Carolina did back in 2018
Iâm still bummed and havenât read or posted a single thing on here since the game started.
You know, if you told me in August that weâd win 10 games and go to the Gator Bowl I wouldâve been thrilled. Totally exceeded expectations. Even if you told me we went 10-3 and lost to Miami or even GT or SMU in the ACCCG I wouldâve been thrilled with the season. But we lost as a favorite to Duke. And I canât help but feel somehow disappointed by that.
This mightâve been the best season in school history. Top 3 at least. Maybe Iâll feel that way in the future, but it doesnât feel that way right now.
I donât know how much the bowls care about attendance or how well the participation schoolsâ fans travel. The Gator Bowl got 30k last year with Ole Miss vs Duke and 40k the year before with Clemson vs Kentucky. A lot of our traveling group of fans mightâve spent their money and energy for Charlotte already, so Iâm not expecting a big crowd in Jacksonville. I donât know if any non-playoff CG losers ever travel well to bowl games. Or even non-playoff CG winners. I donât know if it matters. The TV money is the main revenue driver for the Bowl games followed by the naming rights sponsors.
Well said and I agree all around.
If we want to beat Mizzou we will need to come out swinging - unlike last Saturday. They are battle hardened and well coached.
On a level playing field this would be a teally fun game and a good matchup agaisnt a ranked team.
Being a bowl game I have no idea how people show up
We have nothing to lose tbh. Ball out and take shots!!! I feel like the passiveness against Duke hurt us
We won 10 in the regular season for the 2nd time in program history, had the best regular season record in the ACC, beat Tech finally. We win in Jacksonville and Iâd consider it the most successful season weâve had.
