Ducks & Beavers: Who's Going Bowling??

Drachir · 12-02-2006, 11:30 AM

I was wondering how many Ducks or Beavers fans are going to their Bowl games. We have made our travel reservations, and we are looking forward to a great Christmas trip to Las Vegas. I have never been to Vegas, so this will really be fun!!

The Ducks are in the Las Vegas Bowl on Dec. 21st in Sam Boyd Stadium, kick-off is 5 PM. They will be playing BYU. This will be a tough game for the Ducks to win. BYU is a pretty high scoring team, but thier defense is suceptible to big plays with our option offense. Just hope the Ducks bring thier "A" game, and not the team we have seen lose the last 3 games of the season. GO DUCKS!!!

The Beavers are in the Sun Bowl on Dec. 29th in El Paso, Texas. I don't think they have announced thier opponent until today's games are completed.

This is not a Smack Thread, so just keep it to the subject, please!!

Good luck Ducks!

Vegas Bowl game sounds like fun.....

I had plans to go to Glendale before Louisville lost to Rutgers. I had talked to a buddy of mine back home in Louisville and we would have met down there.

Looks like Louisville will be in Miami for the Orange Bowl but don't think I will go to that one.

I am excited that they will play in a BCS game. it has been a great year of college football despite the BCS failure.

Have fun in your bowling destinations

I had an offer from a casino for a few free nights so I went ahead and booked them, and they comped me an extra night for the bowl game. Then I looked at airfare for the trip and couldn't believe how much they wanted, and no guarantees on game tickets either.

If I can't get cheaper air I will probably watch it on TV.

Through Expedia, we got round trip airfare and 4 nights @ the Monte Carlo, for $365 pp. That is a killer deal!!

We checked the airfare alone, and it's $265 RT pp.
That means we got the hotel stay for $25 pp per night.
