I'll only go to the Peach Bowl if someone gives me free tickets. Of course, I could keep riding by and have the small tv plugged into the car outlet.;)

I'd LOVE to go the sUGAr Bowl, but that definitely isn't going to happen:(

Lynn, UGA fans are lucky.

Hawaii's sold 5,000 tickets in just one day to season ticket holders. Lots of tickets to go around -- but no flights and no hotels. Lots of activity going on that week, especially with the National Championship game going on a week later. Tickets to the general public haven't even gone up for sale yet.

Vacation packages start at $1,999 for air, 4 nights hotel, game tickets, and tailgate... but I'm assuming those packages are already gone. I know of several people who spent as much as $3,500 per person. :eek:

I'm still not sure if I'm going (don't know if I can even get days off), but at this rate, if I do, I'll be flying into Houston and hauling ass. Putting myself back in debt is worth it, I suppose. :o

I do not underestimate Hawaii at all. While I have all the confidence that Georgia will win (count me in the arrogant SEC alumni/fan group), I've seen y'all play a few times this season and y'all are for real!

Anybody remember this score from last year's Fiesta Bowl?

Boise State 43 Oklahoma 42

Amen Sisters, Amen!

On, On U of K!

I gotta say, I was hoping for McFadden - he's been there before and he's a Junior... both good players though.

You're wrong...Michigan didn't get to the final game last year because NO ONE wanted to see them lose to Ohio State yet again. A lot more goes into the choice than just who is ranked #1 and #2 by the computer. Obviously the computer was wrong since #1 got whipped by UF! LSU gets its third chance because no one else did better. The SEC teams that LSU lost to played their best games of the year against us. Even if Arkansas was unranked, McFadden (who deserved the Heisman) was back and played an awesome game. They would have been better this year if he'd stayed off the injured list. SEC is by far the strongest conference. Even with two losses, we're going to kill Ohio State and prove that point. I think the top 5 SEC teams could beat Ohio State, so Go LSU, Go Tennessee, Go Georgia! Don't hate LSU...we've worked hard to get here. UGA has beaten us too many times to count, but it's our turn now! You may be a better team...hell, we were a better team than UF last year, but you didn't see us running around crying like a bunch of babies! Be happy that the SEC is getting some recognition.

Not very impressive? They used a backup that did nothing but run the ball all year and hadn't thrown a pass in a month. 464 yards of offense w/ 200+ yards rushing on a fairly good defense is pretty impressive.

No, their isn't a rule saying you have to be your conference champs. There shouldn't have to be. It should be understood by everyone who isn't void of rational thought that if you don't even make your conference championship game you have no business being in the national title game. Shouldn't have lost to Tennessee or South Carolina.

The only team, in my opinion, that had a pretty solid argument for getting in the BCS Championship was Oklahoma....and that was a shaky argument at best. Some will say USC had a claim also.....I'm not buying it. Losing to Stanford at home, not being the least bit dominant in any game except Notre Dame.....not impressive.

Don't agree with Arizona State. Played very poorly at the end of the season over their last 4 games.

This *IS* entertaining!
 

I'm sorry that you're always long-winded, but I essentially said the same thing about the '06 Michigan team without expounding.

How about...if I wanted to be a crybaby at that moment, I have the right. You have the right to go on and on when you really should shut up and not worry about UGA fans (or at the least me).

And the SEC always gets recognition. You're obviously not a real (arrogant) SEC fan.

Ehhh.... Your opinion.

Touche. A lot of fans have rational thought, but we have a great deal of optimism, hope, and faith when it comes to the Dawgs. Alas, all of that was not competition for the BCS. Agree to disagree...?

...from page two...
" John Humenik saw the difference when he left as Michigan's sport information director to take the same job at Florida in 1982. Living Big Ten football - the Rose Bowl, Bo Schembechler, Ohio State-Michigan - he thought he was ready.
"From the moment I walked in the door, it was noticeable," said Humenik, who retired at Florida in 2002. "Everything was just different. You could ratchet it up about 10 times or so."
Oklahoma fans F.J. and Amy Rice dealt with that four years ago when they followed their son, Jacob, to the 2004 Sugar Bowl. He was the Sooners' long snapper in that 21-14 national title loss to LSU, and his parents experienced a week they'll never forget. Amy Rice said it started with a drive through the LSU campus in Baton Rouge, when a young female jogger saw the Oklahoma decals on their cars and cursed at them once, then did it again to make sure they heard. It continued in New Orleans.
"They yell the rudest things, and not fun things, either," Amy Rice said. "It's not a friendly rivalry, it's an ugly rivalry. When I saw who was playing, I said, 'Oh, those poor Ohio State people, they'll be like we were. It'll be a home game for LSU, and they are so dadgum mean.' "
While praising fans of other schools Oklahoma faced away from home - Alabama, Oregon, Southern Cal, Colorado, Nebraska - F.P. Rice said he was shocked and unprepared for what he faced in New Orleans.
"It's one thing when college kids do it, but it's another thing when adults decide they're going to destroy your entire weekend," he said.
Rice was so upset, he sent a letter to the editor of a Louisiana newspaper. After it was published, he said he received several angry letters back from LSU fans, with one that included the expectorate of the writer. "

Now why would we think that?
I was on the bandwagon the first time I saw your signature. Now, go to a party and roll your tide.

No, I just don't know what you think this "proves" other than that so far, the Pac10 has won the most games and the Big 10, ACC and SEC have ALL won 2 games. And....???

Confusing.

Does it also mean that less SEC teams have been bowl eligible?

Apple, meet Orange.

Wooo! WARRRRR EAGLE!! HEY!!!! 23-20!
