Peach and Fiesta- Saturday
Win/Win - Either a home game or Arizona. Arizona expensive trip but fun.

Los Angeles - Monday - Zero excitement about this as a Monday destination. Nowhere near any team likely to play, logistics pain. However..we make it I’ll bitch but do it anyway.

good infrastructure and nice indoor stadium. Anythning you wanted to do on gameday you could do indoors (via tunnel or covered walkways) within walking distance to stadium.

I despise cold so that part was a nuisance but the city layout and stadium itself was perfectly fine. I would prefer that than santa clara or LA that's gonna be expensive as all frick to get to and crowded as hell when you're there.

I want the Fiesta so Kirby can add that stone to his Infinity Gauntlet.


Then we'd only be a Cotton Bowl short of the entire NY6 (since CFP's inception) being in our trophy case.

Want as well BUT would take a home game at peach any day. That sht was expensive last year.

Other than hotel pricing, Indy was ok. Beer never got hot. All of the finals were picked a while back as part of “committee” aka Notre Dame and Conference heads wanting to spread things around. Indy didn’t even bid..was just given it.

Same. After the Rose, the Orange was teh next bowl I really wanted to see the Dawgs in and obviously that got crossed off the list. There really aren't a whole lot of high profile bowls/destinations at this point we haven't played in the last couple decades aside from the Cotton and Fiesta. I think it'd be cool to spend a week out in arizona too. More so than dallas anyway.

Never been to a game in Glendale. Rose Bowl is a bucket list thing but been there, done that. Pasadena/LA is full of liberals and the food sux and is overpriced for the most part, but combine it with a trip north or south for a few days and it makes it worth it. Fly into San Fran or San Diego and fly out of LAX, or vice versa, to avoid the crowds and prices.

Yeah, my family sold our Orange Bowl tickets because we weren't feeling a trip to Miami knowing that we would have to turn around to Indy in a week.

Not to go full Bama fan after one title, but I think that'll be our MO moving forward. Unless it's a true can't miss opportunity, I'd rather commit to the title game.

I’m waiting on that for a new profile pic.

Need to do a new one anyway. Just realized I still have Justin Fields on my current one

Just think. Fields could have been the 5th year backup to Bennett on the NC team. That would indeed have been a Precious Memory.

Most (if not all at this point) of the big hotel chains have already opened up bookings for January. I got a room booked in LA for title game weekend and didn't have to pay any actual money yet and free cancelation up til the week of. Might not be a bad idea to go ahead and explore those options if you've already decided you'd be going.

I can't imagine how high prices will be for people waiting until after the semis.

The overall experience at The Rose was amazing and can't be beat for me, the NC game was a business trip and felt like it but the prize was worth it.

We bought tickets to Indy Early and used points for a room. Other than $4400 in tickets, we spent little else.

Think we will head back to semis this year and hopefully get to watch us in the title game on the 80".

Your advice is sound, if it doesnt cost anything , book what you can now before they figure it out. It could be day tripped as well, got all day to get into lax, stadium is 3 miles from there, head back to lax post game and sleep all the way home.

Honestly, outside of it being miserably cold, Indy was sweet.
