    I would say rotate it between Dallas and either Atlanta/Jax every year.

    Re: 10 Cities asked to bid for Champions Bowl

    I voted Dallas because Arlington wasn't an option on the poll.

    It would be great to have the stadium expand to 100,000 for this game. It should not be on anyone's home field.

    It might get big press if it was held one year in Mexico City's Azteca stadium - cap. 105,000.

    Phoenix, because I live here and want to be here when ISU plays for the national championship.

    This ain't a national championship, this is for the SEC-Big12 bowl.

    My thinking with having it at Dallas is that its too close to the Big 12. So is any Florida ones, knock New Orleans out. Atlanta out.

    So that leaves Pheonix, Houston, Nashville, and San Antonio. San Antonio has an old old stadium with a smaller capacity so they're out.

    Pheonix, Houston, Nashville would be perfect.

    Pheonix is far enough from everyone that there can't be any homefield advantage with a nice big stadium as well.

    Houston is close to Big 12 country as well as easily accessible to anyone in the SEC from I-10.

    Nashville just renovated their stadium, right on the river, great atmosphere, close to the SEC but still EASILY accessible to all the Big 12 fans with I-30/I-40 for Texas Schools. I-40 for the Oklahoma Schools. West Virginia is closer to this one.


    My vote is for one of those three.
    My teams: (as of 2/27/13)
    Cleveland Browns: 5-11 - .313
    Cleveland Indians: 68-94 - .421
    Cleveland Cavs: 19-38 - .333
    Iowa State Cyclones (FB): 6-7 - .462

    9/22/18 & 9/7/19
    Akron and Iowa State

    Well never mind then. I'll only go to see ISU play in a bowl game if it's for the national championship.
