Or someone from the ACC realized that the payout for the Birmingham Bowl is 3x the payout for Gasparilla, and they wanted more money in the pot.
Seems to me if you have the worst regular season record of the teams mentioned here, you should take what you get and be happy. Makes sense to me a team with a better record should have veto power over the team with the lesser record.
If 94’s explanation is true, it’s just one more reason to despise Wellman for not being able to swing the Tampa bid and to hate the weenies at dook for pitching a big ol’ hissy fit about exams.
It would seem the ACC needs to pawn the detroit bowl game off on another conference since nobody wants to play there.
The Sun Bowl as well, State fans were pissed about that draw last year...

Oh wait, now you're saying that it's not unreasonable for a fanbase to not want to travel 2/3's of the way across the country for a second rate bowl game. Okay, got it.

It is valid because there are thousands of Wake alumni living in Winston-Salem and Charlotte and Rhode Island is still a lot closer than Texas.
*came. Fuck!
State fans were pissed about the shit opponent last year, not going to the Sun Bowl. Got our wish this year, let’s see if we can stop from cramping the bed this time around.

Just because you're being kind of an ass, I actually looked it up. It takes me 15 hours to get to Charlotte driving. It is apparently 16 hours driving from College Station to Charlotte.
Also, I would assume those "thousands" you speak of are still less than 10k.
You do realize that outside of a couple of Independence Bowl appearances that were in easy driving distance, the Belk Bowl is the least prestigious bowl Texas A&M has ever been to, right ? It's also the farthest away bowl they've ever gone to except the Aloha Bowl. This bowl was a punishment for A&M.
