The Sun Bowl Assoc. Should pick Pittsburgh over Notre Dame. Notre Dame isnt the same team as it was a decade ago. That's my take on it.
Anyways, the poll on the Sun Bowl Website says 48% of the pollers want Pittsburgh to come to the Sun Bowl (including myself)
followed by Rutgers with 38% of the vote. Only 3.3% want Notre Dame to come.

Notre Dame is garbage and if Notre Dame does get invited to go, im not buying tickets. I want to watch a game not a blowout.

I thought some years back Notre Dame refused to go to the sun bowl because they though it was beneath them. Well grant them their wish.

After to-night game against Louisville (on ESPN) I hope Rutgers will be more then 38% and will go to Sun Bowl in the Sun City.

That absolutely happened and I am glad you remember. This was before the BCS and all the conference tie ups. They chose to stay home instead of playing in the Sun Bowl.

We don't need a 6-6 team in the Sun Bowl. We used to get two top 20 teams before the current BCS and conference contracts. Why would we want a .5000 team when we can have the second place team out of the Big East?

Don't tell me ticket sales either. The Sun Bowl will sell 50K tickets this year regardless.

I agree no Notre Dame. Notre Dame is all hype. They haven't been good for years. Academically they aren't even #1 or 2 in their own state (Indiana & Purdue).

Marcian had it right Cal-Pittsburgh !
