    Take it for what it's worth because this is a random Twitter person but it'll be an interesting discussion. What city would you want the bowl in? I'll put up a poll and there would be an "other" option. For places like KC, Chicago etc.

    Dallas
    New Orleans
    Atlanta
    Phoenix
    Houston
    Orlando
    Nashville
    San Antonio
    Tampa
    Jacksonville

    Chicago and KC could be pretty chilly that time of year.

    I can bet my bottom dollar it would never be in Chicago as that's Big 10 country. And I think KC is a long shot as well.

    It will probably be in Dallas, Atlanta, Houston, and New Orleans the vast majority of the time.

    Re: 10 Cities asked to bid for Champions Bowl

    Well I just thought of those two cities off the top of my head.

    I like the thought of Nashville or Houston because those are truly Neutral besides Vanderbilt...

    Re: 10 Cities asked to bid for Champions Bowl

    If you want to keep in mind the tourist perspective (for players and fans) there isn't a better place than San Antonio. If you are speaking strictly from a game/stadium perspective, Dallas would be the way to go.

    Re: 10 Cities asked to bid for Champions Bowl

    It either needs to be in a neutral site or rotate every other year

    Re: 10 Cities asked to bid for Champions Bowl

    Dallas is the obvious choice, but New Orleans is way more fun before and after the game.

    Re: 10 Cities asked to bid for Champions Bowl

    Why do I have a feeling that this will somehow become an SEC dominated cluster by the time it is all over?

    Re:10 Cities asked to bid for Champions Bowl

    It seems really, really unlikely that this game will rotate between cities. It's going to be hard to find one that's considered a neutral site by all, but still readily accessible to fans of both conferences.

    Detroit or Indy. Tired of watching SEC/Southern schools get home field advantage in the post season.
