Don't expect to hear anything from the Meineke Car Care Bowl until at least 4 p.m. That's when USF has scheduled its press conference to announce it has accepted a bid to play in the Sun Bowl. Will Webb, exectutive director of the Charlotte-based Meineke Bowl, confirmed a decision has been made. But they will wait until all proper channels have been informed, and they can get max exposure for their announcement. Maybe later today. Most likely, tomorrow.

As to whether it's UConn or Cincinnati who gets the nod...well, nobody's leaking info. UConn hadn't been informed of anything as of 12:30 p.m. Their bowl game prospectus still has a blank front page.

I'd be surprised if UConn isn't the choice. Then again, who knows?

Stay tuned...
