Heard from a reliable source that we are going to the Gator to play Notre Dame. FWIW but this person is connected.

I would like to see us play Penn State.
Maybe we need to pull a Missouri and tell the league we’re not going back to Tampa.Last minute politicking. The SEC is unbelievable. The Holiday bowl and Gator Bowl fighting over who gets Notre Dame. That impacts where we go. If ND to Gator, we go to the Gator.
Correct. Played like crap vs a very good LSU team.When was the last time we played in the Gator Bowl? I thought it had been quite a long time. Update: looks like 1987.
I forgot about that one. I do remember a heartbreaker a few years before against Ok St. Thought we had a chance to get our first bowl winCorrect. Played like crap vs a very good LSU team.
We also played in the very first Gator Bowl (and lost).Correct. Played like crap vs a very good LSU team.
I was figuring ND would take the team that would make it look better while winning.Oregon has agreed to play in the Holiday Bowl and evidently a ND-Oregon matchup is more appealing to ND. Craziness
Isn’t it ironic that basically Notre Dame is the one holding us by the balls as it relates to bowl selection?Oregon has agreed to play in the Holiday Bowl and evidently a ND-Oregon matchup is more appealing to ND. Craziness. If ND goes to Holiday Bowl, it looks like UNC goes to Gator and they don’t want us against UNC since we played them in the Mayo bowl and open with them next year. So we head to Tampa
Mixed feelings. Love to play Notre Dame but if they’re on a 4th string QB it would be hard to get too excited about that.NDs QB quit the team. They know they probably gonna lose the bowl. ND is trying to pick the opponent who seems “less bad” to lose to.
They being independant and desirable they'll evidently pick what they want. If it were me, I'd tell them no playoffs for you until you join a conference and honor the tie ins.ND doesnt wanna play us. Thats what’s happening
Problem is 5 times in 17 years is a lot.Cities South Carolina has visited for bowl games (to the best of my knowledge). The year listed below is the football season.
Tampa five times (2000, 2001, 2008, 2012, 2017)
Jacksonville four times (1946. 1980, 1984, 1987)
Orlando three times (1975, 2011, 2013)
Atlanta two times (1969, 2010)
Birmingham two times (1979, 2009)
Charlotte two times (2018, 2021)
Memphis two times (1988. 2006)
Shreveport two times (2005, 2014)
Miami one time (1994)
Hoping one day for South Carolina to play in New Orleans.
I would like to see that match up this yearWe also played in the very first Gator Bowl (and lost).
Imagine that. A bunch of Catholic priest holding The Cocks by the balls. Haha hahahaIsn’t it ironic that basically Notre Dame is the one holding us by the balls as it relates to bowl selection?
I've always wanted to play in the Cotton Bowl. Win one in Texas.Cities South Carolina has visited for bowl games (to the best of my knowledge). The year listed below is the football season.

Like x1000!It’s us and ND in the Gator. Woo hoo. I hope we punish ND for the last minute drama.
I agree with you that it is stale for South Carolina to keep visiting Tampa but being matched up with Illinois is a winnable game for South Carolina.Problem is 5 times in 17 years is a lot.
Do we also get an Orange Bowl championship trophy!!I agree with you that it is stale for South Carolina to keep visiting Tampa but being matched up with Illinois is a winnable game for South Carolina.
No, just the Palmetto trophy.Do we also get an Orange Bowl championship trophy!!
And had a bad record before the bowlWe also played in the very first Gator Bowl (and lost).
