Folks are upset because ESPN will hype the hell out of the Cap 1 Bowl and give Alabama more exposure...

do you not realize that since the Cotton Bowl is Fox's ONLY Bowl that Fox will give that Cotton Bowl exposure every Sunday during their NFL coverage??

Cap 1 is one of three games that day, Cotton Bowl is the only game in town on Friday in primetime....

FOX NFL>ESPN Bowl week

wait...you mean that you watched the Cap One Bowl and that abortion of a playing surface and DIDN'T get the feeling that it was the most prestigious non BCS Bowl?

Irrelevant. You are being intentionally misleading and you know it.

LSU in Cotton and Bama in the Cap One are better for both teams...PLUS, each team's opponent has a story to go with it. It's all good

Dude, by the time the Cotton kicks off you'll think it's a BCS game.

Not anymore. Citrus Bowl Stadium got a new artificial surface in the spring/summer.
