PromoTheRobot Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 The MAC sent 8 teams to bowls this year. A record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, my son is a freshman at Maryland - and in the band. The bonus is my nephew is a junior at Virginia Tech and the game is in our backyard so we'll have a mini-family tailgate. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I would, but I can't find my pipe. 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talley56 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Pinstripe, go Terps. We'll never be national championship contenders and, seeing as how we rarely ever won the ACC, we'll probably never win the Big Ten. An occasional bowl win is about the best we can hope for.

Where are you getting your tickets? Looks like you can get them through the school but they only show the general section, not the seats. From what I saw this year you're 100% right about not being a contender - big disparity in talent even though I thought Taulia was pretty damn good.

I see I misread your OP about attending a game. Just hoping the Terps can pull it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArdmoreRyno Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 I'm still debating rather or not to go to Glendale to see my Cowboys play. It would be an amazing finish to beat Notre Dame in the Fiesta Bowl, but dropping $1200/per person for the trip... not so excited about. Esp. after Christmas.

I'd love for Oklahoma State to play at the new North Texas stadium. Every time I drive by it, it's fascinating how it looks. My earliest memory of a football game was an OSU v UNT game in the Cotton Bowl in 1981. I was 6 years old. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeesh, I just went to my first college football game a few months ago and I'm more than a few decades past 6 years old. $1200/per is a lot of coin to drop on a football game. If I had a rooting interest it would be a good excuse to visit one of my favorite regions of the country Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Managed to keep it in the budget. Hard to pass up an Oklahoma State v Notre Dame matchup. Both teams were outside-shots to make the Playoffs this year. Should be a damn good game. Yea, I was probably 1 1/2 when I went to my first college game. My dad is a HUGE Oklahoma State fan (like me) and he went to Dental School at OU, so he had free tickets to games in Norman. He would take me to games and listen to OSU over the radio while watching OU. He took me to the 1976 Bedlam game in Norman (which OSU won). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinceThe70s Posted December 10, 2021 Author Share Posted December 10, 2021 I was hoping OSU would sneak into the playoffs - I get bored seeing Alabama make it every year. Have a great time at the Fiesta Bowl - that's a great matchup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poleshifter Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 I have always wanted to attend a bowl game. It seems like such a cool atmosphere. I'm living in Buffalo this year, but will soon go back to Tucson, and will have some extra $$$ soon, so hopefully next year, I can go a bowl game.

RaoulDuke79 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 As fortunate would have it I have a new years eve day game. Probably will need and evening nap if I want to make it for the ball drop. Liking the moves the Hurricanes have made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be interesting to see if OSU is excited to play this game considering they were 1 inch away from beating Baylor & possibly jumping Cinci for that 4th spot. My guess is Notre Dame will be ready to go given the fact they have a new coach that players seem to be excited to play for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same question could have been asked during the 2011 season when OSU was like 0.008 points away from a National Championship slot. Went into the Fiesta bowl against Andrew Luck and #4 ranked Stanford and won. OSU has never played ND and they will have something to prove.
