  After Week 3, ESPN’s Bonagura has predicted a Sun Bowl matchup between Utah and Louisville. I know these predictions don’t mean much, especially so early in the season, but I think this would be a fun game. I would love to see if our D can subdue a Lamar Jackson.
  
  So realistically speaking, who would you like Utah to play in this year’s bowl game?

  Of the non-NY6 bowl games, my preference would be the Holiday Bowl vs Ohio State. I’d go to that one in a heartbeat. I’ll also accept Michigan, Wisconsin, or Michigan State. (Penn St went last year, so not likely they get invited 2 in a row)

    Ah, Whitt vs Meyer! I’ll take that. I like our chances against this Ohio team.

    Penn State Played USC in the Rose Bowl last year.

      Oops! My mistake. You are correct. Then Penn St would be added to my list. Take off Wisconsin though as they played in the Holiday bowl 2 years ago and the Big10 agreement with the Holiday bowl is 5 different teams over 6 years (so no Wisconsin, Minnesota, or Nebraska this year).
      
      Thanks for helping me see the error of my ways. 🙂

  I thought the same thing when I read the Louisville prediction.
  
  Outside of a Rose Bowl, I agree with the suggestion of the Holiday Bowl vs. Ohio State, Michigan or Michigan State. I have close friends in both Michigan fan bases and it would be fun to get a marquee opponent and possibly arrange a trip to watch the game with my friends.

    Michigan would be a great matchup, too. I hate Harbaugh. I will totally relish a chance to go 2-0 against him.
