As a kid, I always looked forward the GalleryFurniture.com Bowl every year.
Like RT, I have to say Cotton. Back in the ole days, when Texas played there all the time. I remember being in school, going up to see Texas vs Bama I believe. Just remember standing in front of the 'Cotton Bowl' script on the front, crystal clear cold New Year's Day, thinking this is it! Think that game was the Bear's last game. It was a glorious day.
Poulan Weedeater Bowl!
yeah you should reread the OP.
But wait, there is the Rose Bowl game Pac-12 vs Big Ten, and then there is the BCS championship game, am I right?
If so then "The Grandaddy of Them All" - Rose Bowl
Sugar Bowl
Cotton Bowl
As a Mizzou fan that's probably where you wound up every year.
