WaPo: Ranking every college football bowl game, from Birmingham to Orange​

Our annual list ranks all of the season’s bowl games through the College Football Playoff quarterfinals. Which ones are must-see TV, and which can you skip?

14. Alamo Bowl​

USC vs. TCU (Tuesday, Dec. 30, 9 p.m., ESPN)
USC (9-3) was the best non-playoff team in the Big Ten, and Jayden Maiava leads the conference with 3,431 passing yards. A victory in San Antonio would give the Trojans just their second 10-win season in the past eight years. TCU (8-4) has the Big 12’s receiving leader in Eric McAlister (1,121 yards) and is coming off a 45-23 rout of Cincinnati, the Horned Frogs’ second-largest output of the season behind only the 48 points they dropped on North Carolina on Labor Day.

Valero Alamo Bowl
USC Trojans vs. TCU Horned Frogs

Alamodome (San Antonio)
9 p.m., ESPN

Placing too much emphasis on non-CFP bowls can be tricky, but this one feels important for Lincoln Riley and USC. The Trojans clearly improved this season, despite once again falling short of the CFP. They bring in the nation's No. 1 recruiting class and should retain several key foundational players from this year's roster. A road-like win against TCU would mean USC's first 10-win season since 2022, and a likely top-15 finish. TCU can somewhat quietly finish with consecutive nine-win seasons. Opt-outs will be a storyline for USC with star wideout Makai Lemon and others not playing, but the Trojans should have enough to outlast the Horned Frogs.

Prediction: USC 37, TCU 30

Sooo the best toilets down the 281 route, since there are no Bucee’s…

1) Woody’s in Hamilton. Good burgers as well.

2) Bear King in Marble Falls. Great food as well.

A lot of the stops are gas stations with ill repute for toilets. These are your best bets. Plan accordingly.

Also, as I recall, there were multiple complaints about AB potty lines so “go” before the game.

Another mention for the 281 drive - the Real Ale Brewery in Blanco is worth a stop for the non-drivers if you have time to kill. Good serving area and good laid back tours. They do a whisky and a gin there as well.

Do they have brandy, too? Cuz whiskey, gin and brandy, with a glass, I'm pretty handy. I'm tryin' to walk a straight line, on sour mash and cheap wine.

I'd like to point out these guys said we travel better.

That, and they can milk the Bram legacy. (for the record, when the Frogs knocked the ball down on the final play I was like ..."is that it? we sure?" Basically in a fog after more than a solid hour of insanity.

Few weeks later I'm in SA for a wedding. Walking the River Walk with my TCU cap on. Everyone was "Go Frogs" or "that was an incredible win". I did not bother to venture into one establishment there.
