Chicago (Wrigley) and Myrtle Beach are apparently the locks with a 3rd location up for grabs. I guess they're going to keep adding bowl games until Nebraska gets in every year.

Yeah I don't mind it - but 5-7 vs 5-7 in the nobodycares.com bowl isn't exactly going to bring in ratings or butts in the seats.

Which is strange considering quite a few teams lose money going to these bowls.

I could get on board with this - no need for two NYD games in Florida anyway. Give up the Outback bowl for a game out west.

Chicago (Wrigley)


Didn't Northwestern and someone play there a few years ago and they couldn't go in one direction because the way the field was striped, the end zone was right up against a brick wall and was dangerous? How will they fix this?

I just wish they'd end the conference tie ins, the SECW tie in cities and match ups have become stale.

Exactly. Hell, even LSU has had bowl games in the past where they barely broke even. The lower tier bowls really are NOT cash cows even for the big schools, especially when they do not sell their alottment of tickets

IIRC, the latest phase of renovations at Wrigley moved the dugouts in a way that now allows enough room for a fb field

That whole thing looked like a joke, logistics wise. I wouldn't even feel safe there in the stands.

who gives af? its more football. Whats the difference in a 4-8 team and a 8-4 team? NOTHING both are losers. The Capital one bowl is the same as the new orleans bowl.. a matchup of 2 losers that didnt make the national title! Its still football, the more the better
