Fans show excitement for third consecutive bowl game by demanding that our Athletic Director be fired.
Sarcasm. I guess not evident enough.
Not sure if posted, but here is link to donate tickets to the bowl if you can't make it. We don't really a track record of bowl support, so the more we show that we travel the better bowls we will get (in theory). It also shows the team that we support them, etc. Do your part.

Yeah, I think the WF fanbase has done a good job historically of pulling its weight wrt bowl ticket sales, but it just doesn't matter. We still got stuck with the worst bowl of all of our peers in the ACC.
Meh, this is the first year it's happened since before 2006. We could have had WAY worse selections in the last 12 years than Miami (yes, locked in), DC x 2, Charlotte x2, Nashville, Birmingham. Not a single Detroit, Shreveport, or El Paso visit.
What? I definitely disagree on that.

We have a bowl game in 5 days. Our third in a row.
What's the latest line now that Henderson will not play for Memphis?
How is Dortch's finger and will he play?
Will Dortch be back next season? (Hopefully yes). Or will this be his last game as a Deac.......or has he already played his last game as a Deac?
Will Jamie Newman keep his momentum going and win his third game in 4 starts?
This will definitely be Colburn's last game as a Deac as well as several of our best O linemen. Given a weak Memphis defense, will we have a huge day rushing with Colburn scoring several TDs?
How many of our injured players will we get back for this game and how will they play?
Will many of our freshman, who haven't played 4 games yet, play and contribute?
What will the weather be like?
How many Wake fans will show up?
What do you plan to eat/drink while you're watching the game on tv?
Will you watch it at home, someone else's home or a bar?
How many total points will be scored in this predicted 'shootout'?
Will the Deacs win?
For those of you that have found it difficult to discuss our upcoming bowl game, I thought I'd offer a few questions and comments for group discussion.
Yet, all three of those bowls are better than Birmingham. Also, the AD has whored itself out to the bowl committees the past two years, swearing we'll buy a ton of tickets and travel bigtime to their bowls.

You would rather Wake play in Shreveport or Detroit than Birmingham? I think that's an uncommon opinion.
I'd much rather see the team play in a bowl that's after Christmas. Wake and Arizona State are the only two P5 teams playing before Christmas.

I think every AD says that to every bowl committee.
Yeah, but Wake was a little over the top the past two years, to the annoyance of some bowl committee members. Not much effort made this year because we really didn't have any cards to play with any of the bowls.
