Just one day away from seeing what mediocre bowl game the football team will wind up in. It's pretty ironic that the USC-UCLA and Arizona State-Arizona games carry that kind of weight.
According to cbssportsline.com, the Badgers are slotted to take on Florida State in the Champs Sports Bowl.
Now, I know a lot of you would sacrifice a month's pay to get oiled up in sunny Orlando, but how many people are really willing to go back to Florida for a third straight year?
Not only that, but after the forgettable season that was manned by Bret Bielema that proved he's in over his head, I think a miserable showing at a bowl game, from fans that are known to travel very well, would send a strong message to the athletic department.
I think the department got the message loud and clear when the Big Ten Network panned the Camp Randall Stadium for the final regular season debacle vs. Cal Poly in a game that resembled the Mequon Homestead-Hartland Arrowhead Division 1 high school state final the night before.
The Badgers do deserve a bowl, but that doesn't mean the fans have to approve of it.
