    I wrote a little about this in my top ten ASU games. We played ASU in 1975 in James first game. That was a GOOD ASU team

    I watched that Holiday Bowl as well. We didn't have 40 bowl games so the few non new years bowls got my attention.

    For the kids

    In 1975 there were the three networks. There were independent networks that would broadcast games like the Fiesta Bowl and get picked up by your local station. Dick Enberg got his start on one of these.

    The UCLA Houston game of the century from the Astrodome was on independent TV. So was most of the Big Dance which was little back then. By 75 NBC was finally broadcasting both days of the Final four

    No Pac 8 or Big Ten team could go to a bowl other than the Rose. Win or stay home. The two leagues finally allowed other bowls around 77 or 78 which directly led to the proliferation of bowls. Even so in the 80's there were about half as many as we have now

    And we didn't have porn on our computers because lets face it, nobody had room for a main frame in their house and the internets were for military to watch porn on. We had to buy Penthouse magazine.


    Jesus Christ. This is more boring than my Central posts.

    The rhythmic slapping of the convict Canes in 1986 Fiesta will always be the best Fiesta.

    No. No, it's not.

    OK. Actually I like me the occasional mainframe picture with the tape reels.

    Why do you hate Oregon winning one against K-State a few years ago?

    I remember walking up and buying two tickets to the Oklahoma vs. WVU game for $10 at the window right before kickoff, always special.

    Oklahoma actually turned down an invite to it a few years back. UConn made one for fucks sake.

    It's also hosted about seven national championships and every bowl except for the Rose has had teams like UConn in it you Quook

    ASU and UCLA are two teams from the south with hot girls and distractions galore, that our DWAGS should beat like a drum every year, that we somehow always struggle with.

    The fact ASU is 3-1 against Pete pisses me off lol.

    Well he has half the wins this century.

    Fiesta Bowl is about cougar hunting in scottsdale dumbfucks.
