Don't wanna see the Jerry Jones version of the Cotton Bowl but it appears that's the only way the NCAA will reinstate it's importance. Let's face it money talks and the new digs will attracts big name schools and lot's of fans. As for me I just as soon watch a HS game with no damn Big Screens or replays. It tends to make your memoryof events a tad more important. Not just the ESPN highlights we see a thoundsand times a day.

Maybe keep the championship game at the same site every year. My vote: the Cotton Bowl becomes the permanent championship game. The Cotton Bowl has been destroyed and it is owed to be the big game. Let the vote be 1/3 coaches, 1/3 AP, and 1/3 Heisman Voters. I also think that a UPI type poll should be brought that ends before the bowls so we can crown a national champion then as well.

Bowls good. BCS disgrace.

I'm really mad that its moving to the new Cowboys stadium. I attended the last two Cotton Bowls (also the last 2 at the Cotton Bowl), and it’s a great stadium.

The bowls MUST stay. College Football is about more than the Top 8 teams in the country, and I wish these elitists would realize that. Here Here! The bowls MUST stay.
