OUCH!!!! (hopefully) ANOTHER few pound of flesh to be extracted (hey, a decade long bowl drought will do that) in the desert......
I think that this quote says it all, "We'll look at all the matchups," Young said. "If you have to prioritize what we look at, No. 1 would be the most exciting game to watch." = Quackers, book your tickets NOW to SD. |
First let me say that ,like just about everyone else, I think ND-OSU is the best matchup. There are about 40,000 OSU alumni in the general area of Phoenix and ND has scads of people all over. Great game!!!
But for Young to say they are looking for the best matchup he is not speaking about the field of play. He is speaking about the matchup that would bring in the most money because that is his job. Naturally, if he says that he would be fired but that is the reality of the bowl games.
The Fiesta bowl committee is one of the most experienced and knowledgeable in the business. And, YES, this is a business.
