re: Worst bowl game to go to, from the perspective of the player

There's a sliding scale of swag.


I'd take less in handouts from a bowl in Hawaii if I got to have a once-in-a-lifetime experience over there.

I'd expect really nice stuff if I ended up freezing my nuts off in Toronto, Boise, Detroit, etc

Isn't there a max on this stuff though, something like $500 in gifts to the players, that the NCAA will allow? I wouldn't want to be known as the cheapskate bowl that only gives a fossil watch. All of them really should max out on the players gifts. And I saw where several of them are doing a "store" where players get to pick from several items as long as they don't go over this limit. You could get a PlayStation and not much else, or get a few smaller items to add up to it.
