I should narrow this down and include only pre 89 cotton bowls


You're delusional if you think pre 89 Cotton bowl was a major bowl and the Gator / Tangerine (Cap 1) wasn't.

Look, Im not trying to flame South Carolina. One of the first replies to the thread was from one of your fans which said

Good thing football didn't start until 2010 for us.

God our history is terrible.


My reply was
quote:

We are not much better.


Look, The Cotton Bowl was a far more prestigious Bowl. It was supposed to become a BCS bowl based on that prestige but politics "happened"

I can take away the Cotton Bowls but what does that really do for you to make things any different?

Like I said, I didnt put this much effort into compiling this data to "flame" USCe man. I was curious to what I would find and thought I would share with the SECr.

I didnt mean to call you out either and for that Im sorry but scrooster is still a dolt.

Some of the young'ins are fools

Teams to play in fiesta in 70's:
Oklahoma
Penn St
UCLA
Arkansas
Pittsburgh
Nebraska

All relative 70's powers

80's:
Miami
Ohio state
Michigan
USC
Plus some above

Fiesta has pretty much always been a major bowl, maybe not first 2-3 years but it's been a player for a good long time

The cotton was considered major but lost the status due to the stadium/SWC/$$$$. It's come back which is good

The gator/CapOne(Tangerine) were always second tier with the peach/bluebonnet/hall of game (Outback)
