The waiting game sucks....let's play Hungry, Hungry Hippos.

Since I'm getting restless and you guys are reading, here's what I'm thinking with the bowls and how they affect UConn.

St. Pete doesn't want USF again, and the feeling is mutual. Nothing personal, I'm sure. But a bowl game needs tourists make money and survive. It's about more than ticket sales. With UCF locked in, that's one team not renting hotel rooms or spending more than the day in the city. USF would make it two. That's why I think the Bulls will be in Toronto, or Detroit if the organizers decide to swap.

Pitt to Charlotte makes the rest easy. Rutgers to St. Pete (no repeat in Alabama) and UConn to Birmingham.

If Rutgers goes to Charlotte, the Pitt takes Alabama for a good matchup against South Carolina and the Huskies are in St. Pete.

Again, it's all speculation. But it makes sense to me.
