Story on today's announcement that Duke is going to the Birmingham Bowl.
I'll get the programming note out of the way now: I'm going to be covering this one remotely.
A programming ... note: I've been to the Birmingham Bowl once before, in 2018 while covering Wake Forest. I would strongly recommend not staying close to the stadium. Granted, the area could've changed over 5 years. But that was very much a "cover this game and get the f*** out of town" bowl experience.
I'm sure more storylines will emerge but the most interesting one to this point is that Duke could interviewing Troy coach Jon Sumrall in the next day or two. Off the top of my head ... Scott Satterfield left Louisville last year to go to Cincinnati, and those teams played each other in the Fenway Bowl.
