I like that we have an "in" to [I]almost all six[/I] of the Florida bowls, even if some fall short of being a full-tie. Florida bowls are obviously great for travel. So far looks like we have:
 
-Orange Bowl (Miami). Our contract bowl, guaranteed a spot when not a semi-final (always a chance an ACC team would land there when it [I]is[/I] a semi-final too), ACC Champion goes here. Versus Big 10/SEC/Notre Dame.
-Capital One (Orlando). Partial tie-in, will be our top non-playoff bowl when Big 10 is in Orange Bowl. Versus SEC.
-Russell Athletic (Orlando). Full tie-in, will be our top non-playoff bowl when Big 10 is [I]not[/I] in Orange Bowl. Versus Big 12.
-Gator Bowl (Jacksonville). Partial tie-in, 3 of 6 years, split w/ Big 10. Versus SEC.
-Beef 'O' Brady Bowl (St. Pete). Partial tie-in, 3 of 6 years, split w/ Conference USA. Versus the American.
-Outback Bowl (Tampa) [B]No tie-in[/B]. THIS MUST NOT STAND! No bowl can stand in the way of total ACC domination of the state of Florida!
 
Of course, with SEC & Big 10 locked into the Outback, their positions are looking just as strong in the Sunshine State. If you're a Pac 12, Big 12, CUSA, or American fan though, hope you didn't make any travel plans for Florida. Not too many slots for those guys in the above.
 
Also, rumors continue of an American/Aresco created Miami bowl at the Marlins stadium. I wouldn't be averse to sending our 8-10 slotted team there. Supposedly they're looking at the Pac 12 & Big 10 though.
