Atlanta, Orlando or Dallas ... what bowl do you prefer??
Posted on 10/29/08 at 10:24 pm

It now appears the three choices we talked about earlier in the season are now our only three bowl possibilities ...
Would you prefer Dallas (1pm Jan 2nd), Atlanta (7:30pm Dec 31st), or Orlando (1pm New Year's Day)as the three most likely destinations?
ETA: So if we've narrowed it down to Cotton, Cap1 and Peach, here is every possible matchup for LSU in each game (I've deleted matchups that won't happen anyway even if it fits records-wise and standings-wise like a LSU-Miami rematch in Peach, Va-Tech-LSU after playing regular season last year, Missouri won't be in Cotton two years in a row, probably won't be a LSU-Ohio state rematch, etc) .... I've also deleted teams that in my opinion simply won't get a bid to said bowl in my educated opinion (like Maryland in Peach and Minnesota in Cap1).
Peach: (I still like to call it Peach, it will always be Peach to me)
Florida State
Wake Forest
Virginia Tech
Georgia Tech
North Carolina
Cotton:
Nebraska
Texas Tech
Oklahoma State
Oklahoma
Capital One
Michigan State
Penn State

Doesn't matter where just don't want another 50 dropped on us.So hopefully not against any Big 12 team I think against ACC team will be great.

CAP ONE in ORLANDO would be pretty awesome...Im gonna guess though if we dont win out, we are going to the Cotton 
. If we win out I'm crossing my fingers for a BCS at large!

Good point. I guess in terms of the best chance to win, Atlanta would be the best option against I guess either Florida State, Georgia Tech or North Carolina.
Ahh, to hell with it...I'm kinda over Atlanta, but at least I know there's always fun to be had there.

Music city or Chik Fil A are the most probable at this point. Probably Atlanta.

Dallas = Too Cold
Atlanta = Been there, done that
Orlando = Warm weather, and we need to avenge that heartbreaking loss to Iowa
Orlando is my choice.

No chance. We could lose to Bama AND Ole Miss and we're still a lock for the Cotton and/or Chick-fil-A ... and since the Cotton hasn't had us in a while, it's pretty widely accepted that their licking their chops at getting the defending national champs back in Dallas.

I know I am in the minority here but I did enjoy the Cotton Bowl trip last time although we got beat !!!!

didn't know it had been moved to Jan. 2, thanks for the post, that changes things a tad bit.
which is a lot better than the 10am kickoff they had for many years.
ETA: just looked it up, 1pm kickoff on Jan. 2nd

I like Atlanta, it's later in the day and that game has produced some good matchups. Any bowl below the BCS level is about the same to me from a "meaningful" aspect.

ah, my bad. 1 pm

Agree about the "magnitude" and importance of the game itself, I'm more worried about the fun to be had in the cities themselves. Atlanta I always have fun but feel like I've been there 10 times in the last couple years, Dallas is so-so depending on what you do, Orlando has the whole Disney stuff but that's really not my cup o tea.

JP, I like how you've changed your picture to the cotton bowl logo 
Atlanta would feel like Groundhog Day.
Nothing against the Big 12 would really get me going.
Disney World is key (no homo), and there are few Big10 options that would be intriguing. I wish Wisconsin hadn't tanked.

I want the Capital One Bowl. Mostly because I'll have 50 yard line seats for free!!!!
