Clearly not. The lad doesn't know what he means.

Ohio State has lost it's last 7 bowl games in the state of Florida and won it's last 3 in Arizona. This makes me a little nervous saying "Orange", even though it's seemingly irrelevant to this year's team.
Regardless, I'd rather us go to the Orange because we haven't won it in 30 years. It would be cool to be able to say we've won all 4 BCS level games within the last 10 years. (Acknowledging the fact the Rose wasn't a BCS bowl at the time) Last edited by TexasBuck; 10-31-2005 at 10:25 PM. |

Definitely the Motor City bowl. Michigan can be really nice that time of year!
/sarcasm Give me Fiesta - it's just good karma. |

I'll take Orange just so I can drive home from it in an hour and sleep in my own bed (if I want to).
I'd love to see us play ND or Va Tech since we can't play Texas, USC or Penn State. |

Beyond that, I don't give a damn what color jerseys we wear, it's an away game in Florida or California. And look at the number of times Big Ten teams have gotten "jobbed" by the refs in Pasedena. Finally, will someone give me a logical explanation why any bowl would put OSU and Notre Dame in the same bowl? Makes no sense to me at all, but I'm willing to listen. |

That's my take on the issue. IMO The only way we would be paired with ND would be if the two teams finished the season ranked 1,2. Otherwise, you'd make more money by spreading the two money draws out. I don't think ND would want to play us either. If they finish out with just two losses they'll be ranked higher than any other Mid-West team. Playing us would risk that and doesn't appeal to their "national" schedule concept. They'll get to pick who they want to play... probably in the Orage Bowl vs the winner of the ACC playoff game. |

A little off thread topic, but what do you think would be the biggest revenue game ever (doesn't have to be realistic)
I.E. tOSU vs ND in the Rose Bowl, Texas vs USC in the Rose Bowl, etc. |

The problem with college football is that it lacks appeal outside of any particular school's fan base. ESPN has made a living off of it by being able to pitch so many regional games on any given day or throw up any two teams to provide background noise on Tues, Wed, Thurs, Fri in sports bars. So why do I dislike ND? (and the Cowboys and the Yankees) Among many things it's 'cause thier subway alums make them a draw across the nation. The only college team that can do that. I would guess that their income from trademark products (shirts, hats, stuffed toys, dildos) probably doubles that of OSU's. |
