I went to the OU vs Texas game this year. The cotton bowl is still pretty much a dump. Its a dump with a new paint job. Kind of the Lipstick on a pig thing I was hoping we could have held out ONE more year so it moves to Jerry World. for me I would love LSU to be on the Cotton Bowl every year after this year. Of course that means we are not in a BCS game. But I would love nothing more then waking up in my own house, drive 45 minutes, see LSU then go home. havent been able to do that for years.
I'd like to see LSU and Tech. I would like to see how LSU's defense would handle Graham Harrell and his explosive offense.
This is not completely true. Here is the SEC bowl tie in information: Source: secsports.net The Southeastern Conference has agreements to send nine of its member institutions to postseason bowl games following the 2008 season. The winner of the SEC Championship Game will automatically participate in the Bowl Championship Series comprised of the Sugar, Rose, Orange and Fiesta Bowls. The Capital One (2nd), will then make its pick following the BCS selections. The bowl must select the team with the next best overall record or a team within one win of the team with the next best overall record. The Outback, Chick-fil-A and AT&T Cotton Bowls will work with the conference office to determine picks 3-5. The Cotton Bowl has the first preference of teams from the Western Division and the Outback Bowl has first preference of teams from the Eastern Division. The Cotton or Outback Bowl can select teams outside of its divisional preference, but must not select them before the opposite bowl selects from its divisional preference. The Chick-fil-A Bowl has the selection of preference following the Cotton and Outback Bowls. In selections 6-7, the AutoZone Liberty and Gaylord Hotels Music City Bowls will make their selections, not in any specific order, but in consultation with the SEC Office. The Bowls will rank available qualified teams in order of preference. If there are no similarities in the order of selection, the bowls will be granted its selection. If the bowls rank the same teams in preference, the team involved in the process would get its preference of which bowl to participate. The Petro Sun Independence Bowl will receive the eighth selection and the Papajohns.com Bowl will have the ninth selection of available SEC teams.
