Actually, this is at the discretion of the Tenn. coaches and Tenn. people who are in control. I believe they allow up to 55 for each team and a committee in turn elects those players.
Theres a select few that select players from KY, mostly Whitley, and Williamsburg people, however, they really do try to choose the best players east of I-75, just look at the past rosters. And, theres never favoritism as there's only one Whitley player playing this year, and he undoubtedly deserves it.

In Tenn, its a little different. Obviously the committee for the bowl knows a lot more about about the KY players than the Tenn players so it is a helping situation. I can guarantee you that just as many Tenn. players are given the chance to play as Ky players. Not all accept, and not all want too because its not really big enough just yet to intrigue everybody.


IMHO, its seriously as fair as it could be. A lot of people dont know how much hard work and preparation it takes to get this thing going. These guys have worked there butt off to keep this thing going and doing everything they can to make it as great as it can be.

The ONLY downfall I have that needs to be changed IMO is the date. I would much rather see this game played in the spring than in January. I'm assuming this is because a lot of football kids play baseball, however, i dont think it would have that great of an impact.

I think the organizers do a tremendous job with this event and I want to see it continue. My thinking due to the numbers disparity is that maybe it isn't as attractive to players in Tennessee , hence the lack in numbers. Hope I'm wrong .
