NY6 Bowl question?

[Spike]

If we play in Jerry World Dec 2, would they turn around and send us to the same stadium a month later? Would the players want that?

Is the fact that we even just played there a factor to the people who decide who goes where?

I had no issues w/ the Alamo dome. I don't go to games for concessions. I can't use my cell phone at Jerry World half the time anyway, hardly an issue for picking a bowl destination IMHO.

To each his own. I’m glad you had a good time

Maybe.

Some wouldn't, some would.

No.

I want the highest profile game possible vs the best opponent possible. Zero [ Finebaum ]s given about anything else.

The bigger issue: the bowl and chamber of commerce people want out of town guests to fill up hotel rooms and restaurants. I seriously doubt the Cotton Bowl wants TCU and therefore the committee will select someone else for that game. The criteria the committee uses to select all the NY6 bowl games is based on setting up the "best matchups". Said another way, they select the teams that will generate the best TV ratings and economic impacts for the hosting bowls. That's why big schools tend to get what they want in these situations.

Logic would dictate no but this is college football.

I am 100% confident they won’t.

No as to the first part about whether it’s a factor. The big 12 participants are determined by rule. The NY6 games are selected by the committee members. The Ohio State game was offered by AT&T/ESPN. There’s a very real possibility we’ll play a stretch of 3 of 6 games at AT&T (Big 12 champ, cotton bowl, vs Ohio St.

It is reasonable to expect it to tamper TCU fan attendance but a big 12 champ matchup, a huge bowl vs. a team like ND, PSU, Auburn, Miami, etc., and a matchup against tOSU —- those don’t come around often and our fans will show up.

God willing I would be at all 3. Barring a last secong surge in business doubt I would go to Fiesta Bowl because I'm saving my $ for the Dodger Classic.

Ok. That settles it I guess. The dirtbag has spoken.
