Oregon gets unranked UNC and we get unranked and likely (severely) roster-depleted Florida.
Personally, I was hoping for the Holiday...easier travel, accommodation. Seems as if the Holiday is a bit better covered..

The only problem with Vegas is the date. Wish it was a week later

The only problem with Vegas is the date. Wish it was a week later Really? Christmas Eve? Traveling home on Christmas? I'm sure Christmas Eve in Vegas could be fun for some people, but I have to believe that the number of Beaver fans willing and able to go would drop dramatically if the game was on Christmas Eve!

I was going to post something like this. Then, I thought better of it. It's basically the last Saturday that you can hold a bowl game. I tend to agree that say the 23rd would probably be better than the 17th, but that may just be me.

The Holiday Bowl really wanted Notre Dame, not North Carolina. Would have been a great rematch between OSU and Notre Dame.

The Holiday Bowl really wanted Notre Dame, not North Carolina. Would have been a great rematch between OSU and Notre Dame. The ACC does not have a bowl selection order per se. But it was widely understood that the Gator Bowl would get the first pick after the Cheez-It Bowl. That's why I posted that it might be to our benefit for North Carolina to win the ACC Championship Game.

So, which Bowl was preferable/more prestigious?
I know this one.
The Bowl Game the Beavers are playing in.
You're welcome.

The only problem with Vegas is the date. Wish it was a week later I’m glad it’s not on Christmas Eve, but I would rather it was sometime that following week. Oh well, I’m just pumped to go to this one. Before I retired, it was a lot tougher to get away for bowl games, and then along came Anderpants, and there was no chance for several years for us to have a game to get away to!
