Future Bowl Possibility?

No current bowl tie-in with the SunBelt...However, I did find this on Wikipedia.

"The game currently features teams from the SEC and the American Athletic Conference. Should either of these conferences not fulfill their bowl commitments, a team from C-USA or the Mid-American Conference will take their place, provided it is bowl eligible.[8] Otherwise, the game will choose an at-large team (as in 2008, when the SEC was unable to send a team; the bowl selected ACC team North Carolina State to face Rutgers from the Big East despite the fact that the bowl had an arrangement with the Sun Belt Conference at the time and it had at least one bowl-eligible team it could send)."

So even though the SunBelt has never been involved it looks like it could be possible going forward having a good majority of our conference in that area. Will be interesting to see if the stadium funding even gets going though.
