It's ok though. 12 other B1G teams would have been happy to make it to "just" the Rose Bowl.
Yup. The Rose Bowl is still a big deal for teams who don't normally sniff the MNC.

That’s only part of it. When you combine that with the cost of air travel and what’s going on with the virus, I just think it’s too much for some people.

It's the binary world of football for a helmet team... CFP, or shithole.

tOSU has nothing to apologize for as far as fan support.It's a tall order going to many games with the virus still grousing about and ridiculous prices still rising

should have sent one of the other teams
unfortunately, for the elite, the Rose Bowl ain't the granddaddy of them all any longer

I posted when we were speculating about what bowls teams would get, the one chance MSU had it going to the Rose, was that everyone knew Ohio State fans were not going to travel for it. But I believe the way it's written, the rose automatically takes the next highest ranked Big Ten team, no matter what.

I think the Rose Bowl still means a lot to the other 13 teams, give or take a Michigan, but I do think by and large there is a little bit more reluctance when you lose your way in.   If Ohio State had suffered a second loss earlier in the season, to Nebraska or something, but then beat Michigan and won the CCG, to get in, I think you might see somewhat more interest

should be rewritten, for the fans and the bowl sponsors and the Pasadena chamber of commerce & tourism

Yeah maybe we should draw names from a hat or something

Or kind a like they do in schools today is just pick a winner based on leader ship an attitude or brown nosing or whatever.

If you’ve watched any of these ballgames you’ve noticed at the attendance has been absolutely horrible with the exception of the Gasparilla bowl last night which was decent.

I see OSU is favored by a TD which sounds about right, but weirdness happens.

if you're not excited about the opportunity, just say so and allow someone else the chance

folks have turned down bowl games in the past, not a big deal

Agree. So obviously they are excited.  Despite what gibberish gets published on a random forum.

So when I saw ticket prices go down, I texted my buddy seeing if he wanted to go to the Rose bowl.

I-15 connects the Utes' stadium with the Rose Bowl, and exit 80 in Nevada is marked only as "Ute." So some practical jokester went along and stuck a red block "U" over the white "U" in "Ute" on all the signage.
