You should as most of your titles have come from the Rose bowl.

Yeah I like that element but being tied to the Pac 12 is such a rough draw. It's such an irrelevant conference nowadays.

It's a nice bowl game in a very good setting, but it takes itself way too seriously.

It is a media circle jerk event. Idk how the media determines which events qualify but they definitely like the Rose Bowl.

Damn, 60k Utah fans in the Rose Bowl. More than their home field’s capacity.

Was at a Bengals game when they did it with whatever the hell fighter jet they typically use. We had bad seats and it reached its lowest point right above us. I’ll never forget it. It was badass. Just one was enough to shock and awe me.

A night game in the Rose Bowl just feels different than a championship game in an indoor NFL stadium. It should never change, it's what makes college football special.

The same thing with the Cotton Bowl. If they ever try to move TX/OU to AT&T stadium, I will never go to another game.

What I don’t like it that from 1947-2002, it was strictly Pac 10/Big Ten, with the exception of the 2001 BCS title game.

From that period until the mid 70's only one team each from the Big 10 and PAC 8 were allowed in a bowl game and that was the Rose Bowl. It became a "Super Bowl" for those teams as that was all they had to play for, therefore it was a huge deal to those schools. The last 30 years or so not so much.

Local band marched in the parade this year. I didn’t go but kind of cool with all the pageantry and the venue. But has lost some luster for obvious reasons.
