Yahoo! article states this too:

If Arizona State wins, Colorado will go to the Alamo Bowl and play Iowa State. If Iowa State wins, BYU will go to the Alamo Bowl and play either Arizona State or Colorado. We’re not totally sure why Arizona State is in consideration at all. The only matchup between the four teams in the regular season was ASU’s Week 13 win over BYU. For as fun and chaotic as the ending of that game was, we don’t need a rematch in the bowl game. We’d rather watch a game between BYU and Colorado.

Thanks to conference realignment, the Alamo Bowl will be a matchup of two Big 12 teams

The bowl said that it'll choose from Arizona State, BYU, Colorado and Iowa State.

You think they'd take Colorado over ASU?

Every day of the week and twice on Sunday. That's a no brainer business decision

Colorado has a much larger viewer base.

here's to hoping

Colorado will be the first choice over literally any Pac/Big12 team

I think all PAC12 tie-ins are required to take best conf. record: ASU over Buffs

NYC and Japan

Not required. Its like a draft. They can pick who they want.

It's not a lock based on the Alamo Bowl's statement. You have to read the detail

I read the statement

Why wouldn’t they take CU and ISU if available?

Dec 5, 10:05am

CU is a lock. here is why I don't think they take ISU and choose BYU instead.

I don't mind the CO matchup, but it's not great timing as far as shedding the

BYU v. Colorado or BYU vs. Miami/Clemson would be pretty awesome matchups.

Except for the BYU v Colorado one.

Well that settles it then. BYU is going to the Pop Tart Bowl.

Tyson isn't playing for ASU. Their entire offense will be Skattebo

BIG 12 playing each other in any bowl sucks. We'll never get any CFP respect if

Sad and True, but it is a product of the PAC implosion.

That's entirely possible. This is a money game, after all, not a fairness game

The Big 12 needs to play SEC and Big 10 teams in the bowl games to prove our teams are just as good. By playing our own
