Don't Rule out Sun Bowl because of Travel $$$ Issues.

[bcamp34]

the board should pool its resources and rent a party bus.

get about 30-40 people to pitch in $100 a piece or something and it would be a breeze.

that would be cool....I'd like to carpool with anyone if they need people, I don't think 4 of us would wanna drive in my coupe honda accord 

if there's any way to save money, i'm up for it.

No.

The Sun Bowl has said they will take the highest ranked team in the BCS out of USF, Cincy, & U Conn. 

That will be USF after this weekend.

not be contentious

but who is "they"?

is this in writing somewhere that bcs rankings trump divison standings?

such a decision would make division games less worthy

Orbitz shows flights to El Paso from Tampa for as low as $434 with tax leaving 12/29 (Sat) and returning 1/1 (Tue).

Sun Bowl selection committee chairman John Folmer told me Saturday night after USF’s win that the Sun Bowl would take the highest ranked BCS team. CollegeBCS.com’s Jerry Palm told me Saturday night that USF would be ranked ahead of Cincinnati and UConn, so cue the Beatles: Here comes the Sun.

As long it is not UCONN, they looked like do do yesterday.  A Pac 10 team would kill them and make the Big East look bad

I added a Travelocity link above and just did Tampa to El Paso, 12/29, return 01/01 and they have a $374 rate.

I'm a student and am starting to look for the cheapest way to get there. The party bus would be awesome. I wonder how much it would cost to charter something? I definitely want to go but if its going to come down to spending $800 you can count me out. I've got all the time in the world just need some way to get there.
