  1/4 Cotton Arlington, TX Oklahoma (Big 12) vs. Texas A&M (SEC)
  
  Most excited for this game out of all of them. Talk about bringing back great tradition...

  That is a good one.
  I'll take Oregon v. Kstate as the one I'm most excited for.
  Quite frankly, some of the lower bowls may be better than the BCS ones.

  MAC gets 6 in.

  I was thinking there was an outside chance of Texas v. Texas A&M in the Cotton Bowl. How amazing would that have been?

  7
  
  NIU: Orange
  Kent: GoDaddy
  BGSU: Military
  Ohio: Independence
  Toledo: Potato
  CMU: Pizza
  Ball St.: Beef O' Bradys
  
  MTSU got shut out, so those question marks above are both MAC

  Most likely to happen in the Cotton Bowl?
  
  A) Bob Stoops loses another big bowl game
  B) Johnny Manziel shows why he shouldn't have finished 2nd in the Heisman due to Freshman-bias
  C) Texas fan threatens the game with a bomb scare

  Why would they do that?

  the independence bowl offered them but wanted them to make a decision by saturday but latech was being considered for the liberty and the heart of dallas bowls and the ad thought those two bowls would be considered "progress" (seriously) and rolled the dice that niu wouldnt get into the top 16 of the bcs (which would have moved all the big 12 teams up a notch with oklahoma going to the sugar and would have opened up a spot in one of those two bowls) and lost

  I feel bad for Rece right now. May, Holtz, Palmer, and Pollack (not as bad as the other 3) doing this bowl special show with him.
• karen lotz

  

  Rece is just as bad as anyone else

• bigkahuna

  Pollock is the worst; well second worst behind May.
