You forgot to mention shitty stadium in a shitty part of Orlando.

That doesn't bother me bc I'll be watching on tv.

So this looks like its happening:

Cap One: Georgia-Nebraska
Cotton: LSU-Texas
Outback: South Carolina-Michigan
Chicken: Texas A&M-Clemson
Gator: Miss State-Northwestern

So why would cotton pass on a&m?

Have not heard answer to that question

Texas will refuse to play A&M

Cap One: Georgia-Nebraska
Cotton: LSU-Texas
Outback: South Carolina-Michigan
Chicken: Texas A&M-Clemson
Gator: Miss State-Northwestern

Hope so!

On the contrary, I think ATM want to stick it to their former conference right now

Whether we play OU or Texas, I think most LSU fans would be very pleased with Cotton.

Cap One apparently DID want A&M badly, but the SEC office started throwing its weight around. Looks like LSU/Georgia will be in Cotton/Cap One. That's all over twitter right now with sportswriters citing *sources*

LSU vs Oklahoma in the cotton would be ideal. It's actually the matchup we all thought we'd be getting in the sugar bowl. Payouts don't really matter either because the money is split between the conference members, so I think it would work out better than a Sugar bowl appearance for LSU. As much as I'd love to see LSU in NOLA again, I'd have no interest in watching them play Louisville.

Considering how this season played out, injuries, slow developing QB, one loss that shouldn't have been. The Cotton Bowl is a huge reward for this years team. I'm happy for them.
