I don't think the city of Shreveport would agree with you on that. The bowl game was well-attended even for a highschool-sized stadium and it seems to be a pretty good game every year. No other games on that compete with it. I'd hate to see it fold if only because it's a Louisiana city.
Thanks...My sentiments exactly...Except 60,000 would be a very large High School stadium...

Well, yeah, I was being a bit sarcastic about teh size since someone called it that.
Looked like a good crowd for a Monday night, better than I've seen on most of the bowls I've watched thus far.
And, if I'm remembering correctly, the past few years have given viewers some great games. Teams may not be thrilled to get the Indy invite, but it's better than sitting at home. And I know the Indy Bowl folks work really hard to make it a hospitable environment. Unfortunately, it's gotten to be a bitter pill for SEC teams to swallow. Think I'd like to get some fresh blood here over the next few years.
Maybe more people in this part of the state might venture out to see teams they wouldn't have a chance to see otherwise. I've seen Georgia and A&M play before and so have many of the folks around this area. I'd probably go see BYU play an ACC if only because I'd never see them any other way.
