The American Athletic Conference isn't the only league looking into creating a bowl game.

Conference USA is on the ground floor of a start-up bowl in Boca Raton, according to sources, with one source saying the league "likes the chances of it happening."

Conferences are exploring their bowl options as the current contracts expire after this season. American commissioner Mike Aresco told the Tampa Bay Times that he thinks his league creating its own bowl is "doable" and the finances can work. The Times points out that Marlins Park in Miami is a possible venue.

FAU Stadium, where new league member FAU plays football, is considered the primary option for the bowl site, according to a source, while a bowl name and a conference playing partner have not yet been determined.

Too bad they are not sponsored by the prison group anymore.

Laugh all you want, but this is a beautiful modern campus with much more to offer than Dade County. Palm Beach and Boca Raton areas are very affluent and make little "d" look like the ghetto in comparison.

Judge with your eyes and see very little.

Not everyone wishes to live in Levittown.

Little d has more character than Palm Beach and Boca Raton could ever aspire to. Little d is young, hip, cool, cultured and those two cities are plastic but also where people go to die or get bitten by sharks.

Personally, I think Denton is beautiful.

Then you must have never been outside of Denton, the most unfriendly town hosting two major colleges that even make it a town in the first place. Easily the most backward of all DFW metroplex cities!

Funny, it was just voted most fun & friendliest small town in America. Denton is a real city, not a sterile boring town with a commercialized town square. I'm extremely well traveled and you're wrong. Denton is one of the best cities I've been to, and I grew up in Houston and have been to all of the major cities and lived in quite a few. Denton is EASILY the best in DFW and the next closest isn't even close.

I mean. I wouldn't cast stones from a glass house...*cough* Life's too short to live in Dallas *cough*

I think DallasGreen is solely referring to Denton's views on college football at its local university. In that vein, its almost impossible to argue with him. Denton, as a city, is fine and it does have a nice cultural scene. The city and its citizens just don't care for North Texas football, and they never have. That is DG's point, I think.

      WBB at Oregon (11/12/24)

      The 2-0 ladies deserve a game thread. After taking care of business against two D1 opponents this week, they travel to Eugene to play an Oregon Ducks team in what should be a winnable game. The Lady Ducks are 2-0 after wins over California Baptist and Nevada, but are coming off a season in which they finished last in the Pac-12 at 11-21, 2-16 and lost in the conference tournament to Colorado, 79-30. After SFA transfer Kyla Deck led the way against Alcorn State with 27 points, the ladies used a much more balanced effort yesterday to beat Texas Southern. Four were in double figures: Moore with 20, Wooten with 16, Hardaway with 15, and Lampkin with 11. The ladies play at a fast pace but still are too sloppy with the ball from what I picked up yesterday. This will be a great opportunity for a win against a power conference opponent.

      Yes he did. It would be assisting to not acknowledge it. But notice he also said the result wasn’t satisfactory “the last couple of weeks.” It has been two years.

      Prediction vs Army

      ESPN line is down to Army -3. I wonder if this is based on any knowledge of their QB1 being out for the game?

      You need to listen to that again. Notice that he specified in what ways he was doing a fantastic job--he is a hard worker, etc. But he clearly stated that the defensive performance was unsatisfactory.

      That was not my takeaway from that coach speak answer. What I did takeaway was that he wasn’t considering a change during the season. He also said Caponi was doing a “fantastic” job.
