Is it available yet? I've not seen it on either the Aztec Bowl or AFCA site.

reality check

It's historically not posted til last minute because of bids being sent to playoff participants not sure whether they'll be available.  Last year I believe we had a thread for those who had accepted bids and should be playing.  Perhaps it would be good to post confirmed players in this link...


In that light, ONU's Steve Gunter (CB) has accepted a bid to play.
OAC Champs: 1942 (one title ties us with Ohio State)
OAC Runners-Up: 2017, 2016, 2015, 2010, 2009, 2005, 2004, 2001, 2000, 1999, 1982, 1941 (Stupid Mount Union!)
MOL Champs: 1952, 1950

Jay Tulley, S, Whitworth
Brandon Bennett, OT, Willamette

afca

The 50-man roster, plus alternates, will be released on Nov. 27.

This year's game is slated for Dec. 8 in Chihuahua.

KitchenSink

UW-Stevens Point defensive back Kasey Morgan is on the team.
What the hell was that?  That was a Drop-kick.  Drop-kick? How much is that worth?  Three points.  THREE POINTS?!

Aztec Bowl selection LB Jerrell Freeman

Belton, TX -University of Mary Hardin-Baylor football player Jerrell Freeman has been selected to play in the 2007 Aztec Bowl in Chihuahua, Mexico on December 8th. Freeman, a senior linebacker from Waco University High School, is one of five linebackers named to the active roster. He will only play in the Aztec Bowl if UMHB is eliminated from the NCAA Division III National Championships this weekend. Freeman leads the Cru with 96 total tackles and 16.5 tackles for loss this season. He also has 6.0 sacks and seven pass break-ups on the season. Freeman has forced two fumbles and also blocked a punt that he returned for a touchdown. He is the sixth UMHB player selected to play in the Aztec Bowl, a game that pits a team of Division III all-stats against Mexico's national champion. The 2007 Aztec Bowl will be played at Estadio Olimpico in Chihuahua and will kick off at 6:00 PM Central Time on Saturday, December 8th.

Anything that you ardently desire, vividly imagine, totally believe and enthusiastically pursue will inevitably come to pass !!!

While it's a great honor to go to the Aztec bowl, some players eschew the invitation because of academic commitments. Congrats to everyone named, and to those asked as well.

That's awesome but I do find it funny that there are invites to players from Whitewater, UMHB, Wesley, Bethel, Central, and St. John Fisher...but none from the Death Star. 

...and by Death Star I'm not talking about Wabash.

When was the last time the Galactic Empire didn't make it to the semis?  They prolly got tired of naming guys who never ended up being able to play  ;)
