Which bowl game would you want to go to if you could have your pick? Would it make a difference if I told you some bowls dish each player a flat screen television while others give the athletes a winter beanie? Lets take a look at some of this years bowl game gifts and the winners and losers of what's truly important during the holidays (that's universal for accumulation of material goods, right?).
Sitting atop the heap are Orange Bowl participants Georgia Tech and Iowa. On January 5th the two will do battle in Miami, and until then they'll be in their hotel rooms watching movies on their new flat screens deciding which watch to wear.
The Orange Bowl gifts include:
- Gift suite including iPods
- Fossil watch
- Flat-screen TV
- Home theater system
- Mountain bike
- Luggage
- Tourneau watch
- OGIO backpack
- Hat
January 1st The Ohio State Buckeyes will be in a clash-of-styles type battle with the Oregon Ducks and their high flying offense. Will Pryor live up to the hype? Will Jeremiah Masoli lead the Ducks to their first Rose Bowl win since January 1, 1917? Will anyone really wear the OGIO backpack they're getting?
The Rose Bowl gifts include:
- 19-inch Sharp television combo
- Fossil watch
- OGIO backpack
- Hat
- Commemorative plaque
Connecticut and South Carolina have plenty to smile about going into the PapaJohns Bowl on January 2nd in Birmingham, Alabama. The two get to play after New Years on ESPN and can film the whole trip on their new HD cameras.
The PapaJohns Bowl gifts include:
- RCA HD video camera
- Pro-Swiss watch
- Oakley backpack
- Souvenir football
I'm not going to write something here about the game as if you care, but Central Michigan and Troy are gettin' the hook up for making it to the GMAC Bowl. That's more shit than Santa will be stuffing in my stockings this holiday season, fuckin' economy.
The GMAC Bowl gifts include:
- RCA Small Wonder HD-720p pocket camcorder
- Micro SD Memory Card
- Watch
- Football
- Garment bag
- DOP kit
- Cap
Fresno State and Wyoming are hanging their heads and it's not because of their subpar football seasons. The Sony gift suite is not a power item in its anonymity, nothing else on their list is very exciting, and they have to play football in Albuquerque... I suppose when your game is this weekend and no one knows about it you deserve the garment bag you're given.
The New Mexico Bowl gifts include:- Sony gift suite
- Oakley beanie
- Oakley sunglasses
- Oakley backpack
- OGIO garment bag
