I'm curious about BAers reaction to Chuck Landon's column on Marshall's choice of bowl opponents. This year, for the first time, C-USA had a rule in place that the conference champ, if not invited to the Access Bowl, could pick which of the C-USA affiliated bowls that they wanted to go to. Marshall picked the Boca Raton Bowl against NIU. Chuck didn't like this selection. Do you agree or disagree with him? Why do you think MU chose NIU over Illinois or any of the other possibilities?
Here's a link t the column:
