Yes. 3rd time going and it’s like going to Wrigley or Fenway. Just a throwback to the way things were. The only drawback is the long walk to get out to the concessions or restrooms. We were up high but getting out at the end was easy because they let you leave from the top down the club access area. The tailgating scene is great. The fanzone was just okay but all the USC and UCLA fans together was awesome. They definitely have more active hatred than Texas and OU. 

Yeah sorry the service was real spotty. I didn’t get your text till we were leaving 

Yeah I couldn’t send any pics.  They need to install WiFi.  Dodger Stadium has it and there can be 50k using it.  At the Rose Bowl if there are more than 10k using the cell towers, it goes into meltdown.  Brutal game.  We should’ve won but for stupid mistakes and missed opportunities.  Ugly game on both sides though.  Hope you had fun.

Is the Rose Bowl as magical as it looks on TV? I was only 16 when Texas won it all against USC but it has always been a dream of mine to visit that stadium.

Yes. Definitely a bucket list place to see a game.

Had a discussion online about Texas and aggy wearing home uniforms in the same game. Trying to think of what other rivals have done that. Obviously, USC-UCLA is the top one. Oregon-Oregon State. BYU-Utah did it this year. Did Washington and Washington State do it for the Apple Cup? And before you say, oh that's dumb, Texas and aggy could never do that in the same game, this is was on the promo for the aggy game by Texas Football. Not sure of the year but the footage and color makes me think either late 50s or early 60s when our orange was brighter.

That has to be in the 50’s.

Pretty sure the orange helmets were gone before 1960.

Awesome uniform game. This popped up on my YouTube, for some reason I don’t know why but, it’s really cool.

It's one of the most majestic scenes in all of sport, anywhere. The 2:30(ish) local kick for the Rose Bowl game gets the sun setting on the San Gabriels in the 2H and it's simply incredible. I've been to a 1/2 dozen Bowl games there along with the 4 BCS championship games. Lucky enough to have a good friend on the Tournament of Roses committee. It's a dinosaur of a stadium but the setting is unparalleled. Big renovations to the stadium are on the horizon.

A must see in American sports along with Allen Fieldhouse, Fenway, Wrigley, Yankee Stadium, Lambeau, Cameron, Hinkle Fieldhouse and Madison Square Garden.

Is a different jersey patch for each round really necessary? I hope these are auctioned off as a fundraiser postgame.

A single "CFB Playoffs" patch will suffice, IMO.

Won’t you think of the poor sponsors for the different rounds/bowls who need their own patches?

Off topic for the thread but new Yankee Stadium just isn't a must-see. It's not even the best MLB stadium in New York. Just a big generic baseball stadium with surprisingly bad concessions. I'd say AT&T Stadium in SF and the Pirates' stadium in Pittsburgh are much better cathedrals of baseball.

There's a host of MLB destinations including Pittsburgh, San Diego, Denver, San Fransisco, others.  All newer venues in some really nice settings PNC in Pittsburgh, especially. Shit, look at at it below.  So fair point on your end. 

Yankee Stadium simply because of Monument Park, historical nature of the team, etc. 

No wrong answers on this really. Just my preferences.

100%. My sneaky underrated pick of the newer stadiums is Target Field in Minneapolis. Fabulous park, great food and drink options, with tightly packed, steeply raked stands right in the middle of downtown.

It’d be cool if we got a Major League team rather than the AAA club we have.

Pittsburgh Pirates, Rebuilding Since 1991.

Baylor late to the party on the script logo helmets.

I really wish Texas would just go the route of Bama and Pedo State look. All burnt orange with numbers on helmets. No Texas on the collar, just the SEC patch and Nike swoosh. That's it. Not even the white stripes on the sleeves.

He is trying to say "Auburn", but what you have to understand is that typically those unfortunate enough to be born with severe fetal alcohol syndrome (or in Alabama parlance "Licker Brane") may grow up with some developmental delays.  

Contra: Infinite references on Surly and its predecessors to your little brother team, its fans, players, students, coaches and essence as “aggy” (never capitalized).  My pore ole addled Alabama licker brane syndrome was so severe that I attended Rice. I hate and despise all things Auburn 10,000 times more than you loathe A&M.  And I’m still pulling for Texas on Saturday.  Clemson is nothing more than Auburn with a lake.

Yeah but who sponsors the second round?

Kinders is the official spice and sauce sponsor of the CFP btw don’t be using Fiesta brand seasoning.
