I agree with barry. who the hell wants to go to NYC and DC and brave the cold for a couple of losing Big 12 teams? I guess Kansas and Nebraska are a bit closer. They don't even sell big coats in Texas, we settle for thick windbreakers. I think the Yankee and Eaglebank bowls are a terrible idea.

Yes, the domed stadium was the difference maker for a northern city getting the game. The first time was in 1982 when the 49ers beat the Bengals in the old Silverdome. Dear Barry,

Yankee fans, with the exception of this playoff run, could not fill the stadium or pad the pockets of GS, so he has convinced the IDIOTS at the Big 12 to pillage the pockets of Big 12 fans. Same with the DC thing, seriously, has anyone from the Big 12 EVER been to DC in December or January? It is one of the most miserable places on Earth. Too cold to see any outside monuments and have you actually seen the attendance at a Redskins game? People in DC have not cared about football since Thiesman and Riggins. There is a reason why the NFL will never give a SB to Detroit, NY, Foxboro, Denver, etc....It is too damn cold this time of year. Stupid, stupid decisions.

Its amusing that their little third world country is so easily mind-manipulated. Things that Tramel's buddy didnt like: rain, port-a-potties, security guards, Colorado coach, fender benders and EVERYTHING about UT. The line was a suckers bet (Vegas is always in bed with Texas), the refs made ALL bad calls against OU(they are always in bed with Texas), Texas fans were booing at the game (that doesnt happen at any other campus in America), Colt isnt that good (how do you respond to that?) Side note: A co-worker brought me the local paper from the day after he attended the OU/Baylor game this year. Not only was there not a write-up of the Texas game in the local rag, there wasnt a box score. In the top 20 roundup, they skipped the Texas score. Amazing strategy by the unbiased media: dont tell the locals about the team down south or even recognize that they are a top 3 program. They'll never know.

Colorado -- great! Penn State -- Wonderful! Everyplace else -- wonderful! Except Texas, those obnoxious cheaters. That 60-year-old in his whiteout shirt still has a lot of traveling to do before he grows up. Oh, yeah, that was insightful. Colorado — great! Penn State — Wonderful! Everyplace else — wonderful!

I have always enjoyed college football's traditional powers and the aura they bring to the game. It would be great to make a tour of them someday but for now Carl's blog will suffice. Thanks for printing it. Also it is a shame that so many fans, such as most I read on this blog cannot appreciate and enjoy others opinions and insight without taking it personally. Sad.
