Petro Sun Independence Bowl

[Vinny]

Remember 2001, wait until the announcement before buying tickets! I remember folks who ended up buying tickets before hand and had tickets to the wrong bowl.

I don't know that this is exactly breaking news - surely expected to a certain extent- but a good friend of mine just called and said he once again has secured our Independence bowl tickets to watch Bama play Colorado.

Each year that Bama has played in Shreveport he has secured our tickets because he is friends with a member of the Independence Bowl committee. This committee member said that the decision has been made, they want Bama back in Shreveport. I was hoping for more but in all honestly this or the Cotton Bowl is probably the only feasible chance I get to see Bama play post season. RTR!!!

Don't forget about my 4 tickets to....DT_Armataz_02_02:

I'm glad for the opportunity to go to a bowl due to the extra practice and revenue it brings BUT I don't think Alabama wants any part of Colorado or the winner of UCF/Tulsa.

we owe colorado from a few years back.

I wouldn't mind a trip to Memphis to the Liberty...better than Shreveport anyway. :smile:

I believe the last time we played Colorado was in 1991, and it ended up being the David Palmer show. Needless to say, we won.

I'm praying for either the liberty or by some miracle chance Nashville.

I will def. be going, but I will really miss bonfires, Seagram's 7, passing out in a RV and riding around drunk in golf carts

We're 1-1 against them. 1 loss in '69 and 1 win in '91. I guess a few years back is like 38 years maybe? :biggrin2:

If we do, indeed, go to the Liberty Bowl, I'll see you guys at the stadium.

just don't go camping that week

 

[Patriot_81]

I hope we go anywhere, but Shreveport. Walking to their stadium reminded me of Legion Field.

I'll be really happy to go to a bowl game if for no other reason than to get extra practice for some of our young players. I'm excited about it and I think it will give the younger players a taste of going to a bowl which will add incintive to next year to go to a better bowl so maybe a little more work ethic will be achieved.

id like to see the liberty bowl, its played against a conf-usa team, plus if we could win that game , which we have a higher chance rather than with a big12 school, it would kick off the new year for alabama football and our guys could hang their hats on a W instead of an L. not to mention there would be some major party left in everyone if the game is played at 430 rather than 8. rtr
