What's the order of the bowl selections for MAC schools this year? Or do the schools negotiate with the bowls to get selected?

Here's what I found. Looks like only number 1 is set:

#1 The GoDaddy Bowl versus Sun Belt
The Bahamas Bowl versus C-USA
The Boca Raton Bowl versus The American
The Camellia Bowl versus Sun Belt
The Famous Idaho Potato Bowl versus Mountain West

Most of these bowls are owned by ESPN so it decides who goes where based on what it sees as what would be the most attractive matchups to draw TV audiences.

The Camelia Bowl might be the best option for travel since the four other automatic tie ins are Tuesday/Wednesday before Christmas. Might be to our advantage to be 6, 7 or 8 in the selection process.
