Agreed. And I'm not looking forward to the DJU vs Clemson headlines. IS it football or 'rasslin?

I just think that would be a terrible matchup for Oregon State and DJ considering how much film and insight we have on the guy after playing here three years. That's a huge advantage for our D in that one. If I were the OSU AD I would be lobbying for a different opponent.

The Oregon State defense is pretty good. I don't think we would score very much in that match-up. Historically Southern teams have feasted on PAC-12 with size and speed. This Clemson team lacks tbe speed elimate. We would have to win a 17-14 kind of game.

Lou,
I think Wes would have a whole lot of insight on how to deal with DJU.

In my experience, San Diego is not a bad destination just a long airplane ride***

I would love to see out Tigers play Ole Miss, Texas, Oklahoma or LSU.

Any of the teams from SEC or Big 12 would be interesting

The media is obsessed with making it happen though.

That trip is so wrong by the bowl selection group.

The one bowl game I absolutely do not want, not because of the team but due to the media circus they will try to create.

Who would even play in that game? Would DJ even bother?

It would only benefit Oregon state. Stay in the south.

Playing a hot Arizona team might be more appealing

Problem is, Clemson is too far down the pecking order of the current ACC rankings to get a better bowl game closer to home.

I want Southern Cal a team I've never witnessed us play and what I think would be the most entertaining matchup available . Hopefully Holiday bowl vs real USC but if Oregon State is the opponent I would rather drop to the Sun bowl to make a matchup with the Trojans happen.

Too far to travel. And I'm tired of hearing about DJU.
