Hey, Let's Go Bowling
December 8 2009 by Mike Mason
Last weekend wrapped up the college football regular season. And with it brought to the forefront all of what is best and maddening about college football. The experts vote and the computers compute and we all wish there were a better way, but it doesn't stop us from tuning in (especially if we have a team playing in some bowl game somewhere). I know-- there are more bowls than anyone can possibly be expected to remember. But if you are fan and your team is playing you are most likely going to tune in...or if you are really fortunate you are going to travel to the destination and watch.
These are my top bowls I would choose to attend, both for location and my interest in the game:
Citi National Championship, Pasadena, CA Texas vs. Alabama (It is sunny California and the championship game, after all.)
Tostitos Fiesta, Glendale, AZ TCU vs. Boise State (I am a bit disappointed that one of these teams isn't playing against a team in a BCS conference. After all, doesn't the fact that one of these teams from a non BCS conference usually seems to rise up and beat...oh, now I see, that's why they are playing each other.)
Allstate Sugar, New Orleans, LA Florida vs. Cincinnati (Ok, who thought Florida was not going to be playing in the title game raise your hand. All those not from Alabama. I thought so.)
Emerald, San Francisco, CA Boston College vs. USC (Maybe an odd choice, but there is a curiosity about seeing if one of the most dominant programs in the last 8 years of college football goes out with a whimper or a bang.)
Brut Sun, El Paso, TX Stanford vs. Oklahoma (Ok, this one probably isn't on my list...but how many of you knew that Brut has a bowl. Brut! Awesome.)
Here is a breakdown of where all the bowl teams are playing over the next few weeks.
If you are planning to book a trip, you better hurry! Oh, by the way, there are Best Western hotels in all of these locations. Check them out.
