What was ever wrong with "the whatever bowl - brought to you by [sponsor name]" or "the [sponsor name] whatever bowl."

The corporate names hurt the bowl games more than the number of bowl games. It's truly disgusting.

Why do they spend so much to buy the name? Why not sponsor two bowls with the same money? Do they think they get more business? It is the stupid tax laws that create this.

Based on the one time we've been there since 1989?

Sorry, I tend to think of every bowl in Florida as a Georgia bowl since that's were your team is frequently found in the offseason

Well, that's still pretty weak reasoning for attributing UGA to the lowest tier bowl in the Florida/SEC slate.

But carry on with your usual uninspired schtick...

Can we rename the cHICK-fil-a bowl back to the PEACH BOWL?

I'm tired of my state being associated with that prejudiced company!
