DCWarEagle 0 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Nice. Good to see us drawing a big tv audience. Although I think that the attendance figures are not necessarily any more impressive than an average Chik-fil-a bowl...I believe it has sold out eleven times in a row...

Justin5 20 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 It should be a BCS bowl. Or better yet abolish the BCS. It makes once prestigious bowls virtually meaningless. ...not that the peach bowl was ever a top tier bowl but still.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
