And I would think that they would appreciate some decent fan support regardless of what bowl they play in.

Actually that is debatable. There is no known evidence that supports this theory that bowl practices make the team better the next season.
In fact, there is five years of circumstantial evidence that would lead one to think the extra practice is counterproductive.

Agreed! Went to the 2001 game when the Hawks were on the rise. A lot of fun and a win!

Considering we've won 42 games in the last 5 years, which is the 3rd most wins in any five year period in KF's tenure (behind '01 thru 05 and '02 thru '06), I'd say you're wrong on that front....

Is that true? I was under the impression that the coaches wait and re-evalute thier overall strategy not until after the bowl game.
Some people are so ignorant when it comes to football. There is not a coach out there that wouldn't take advantage of having 3 weeks of extra practice.
Bowl teams tend to stay bowl teams and those that don't make bowl games tend to continue to miss bowl season...even with 40 Frickin bowls.
Imagine scott frost...bet he'd love to have three weeks with his new team.
Extra practice and extra reps is always a good thing despite whatever record the team has the following year. Come on, man!

Not sure holiday-ing in the terrorist attacked capital of the US is on most to-do lists.
Reply is too serious. Apparently my sarcasm about 3 weeks of additional practice being counterproductive for the last 5 years [of bowl games] may have gone over your head. Did I really have to say it so plainly for you?

Just wanted to ask if you meant this to be a serious comment?
Seriously? This team quite often looks like they never practice much of anything. We'll hear so and so really stood out in bowl practice, yet they will never see the field. Better yet, we really had a good 3 weeks of practice and bowl prep, then the team will look lost and lifeless in the bowl game.

Come on guys...who wouldn't want to go to a college bowl game played in a baseball stadium, in cold weather, in a city that has no connection with college football, which is also the most expensive travel destination in the country.
Wow, that's an easy one.
Wow, that's an easy one.
Love the Alamo Bowl, but they have #2 Big 12 vs #2 Pac 12.
Not sure the B1G, would want to give up the Orange vs ACC/Citrus vs SEC slot for the #2 B1G bowl selection.
Right now, #6 B1G team is Pinstripe and #6 Pac 12 team is Las Vegas.
B1G fans would flock to Vegas, every bowl season.
Negative is the ESPN owns the Las Vegas Bowl, and not sure they would want a B1G team, despite the money it would generate.
